White, La Donna – ProQuest LLC, 2012
As of 2001 with the mandates issued under No Child Left Behind, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) revised its standards to ensure that all students receive a quality mathematics education (NCTM, 2008). The 2009 report from U.S. Department of Education revealed that there is an increase in the number of minority students…

Kritzer, Karen L. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2011
In their overview for the prekindergarten-grade 2 Standards, the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) documents the value of early mathematical environments. During these early years, young children are building beliefs about what mathematics is and learning about themselves as early mathematicians. What young children learn about…

Potterfield, April; Majerus, Mary – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2008
Both the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) recommend appropriately incorporating mathematics into other disciplines (NRC 1996; NRC 2003; NCTM 2000). With this in mind, an interdisciplinary, inquiry-based project was undertaken to incorporate mathematical analysis of data into a…

Nagle, Courtney; Moore-Russo, Deborah – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2013
In the field of mathematics education, understanding teachers' content knowledge (Grossman, 1995; Hill, Sleep, Lewis, & Ball, 2007; Munby, Russell, & Martin, 2001) and studying the relationship between content knowledge and instructional decisions (Fennema & Franke, 1992; Raymond, 1997) are both crucial. Teachers need a robust…

Martin, W. Gary – Mathematics Teacher, 2009
This article discusses "Focus in High School Mathematics: Reasoning and Sense Making", a new (2009) publication of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). Its message is simple: Reasoning and sense making provide a focus for high school mathematics that will give students a foundation for their future success. The publication…

Prugh, Lindsay A. – ProQuest LLC, 2012
The need for spatial thinkers is evident in the growing concerns regarding the performance of U.S. students in mathematics and the lack of interest in spatially-driven fields such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Although the focus on spatial research has fluctuated over decades of educational reform, a platform has been…

Id-Deen, Lateefah; Ebanks, Rachelle; Cirillo, Michelle – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2022
Black students in today's classrooms face major challenges unknown to white teachers. In this article, the authors share instructional practices, mindsets, and reflective questions that teachers can implement, practice, and respond to in order to support Black students to feel safe and welcome in their mathematics classrooms. In doing so, the…

Guerrero, Shannon M. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2010
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Algebra Standard states that instructional programs at the middle grades should enable students to "represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols" (2000, p. 222). Guess and check is a powerful problem-solving strategy that can connect a conceptual…

Linder, Sandra M. – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2010
Many models of planning and lesson construction in the United States advocate an objective-driven approach whereby teachers create performance-based goals that their students should accomplish by the end of the lesson. Teachers then evaluate lessons by determining if students have accomplished these objectives. Often, this model of planning…

Wiebe Berry, Ruth A.; Kim, Namsook – Journal of Educational Research, 2008
The authors examined aspects of teacher talk during mathematics lessons in a 1st-grade inclusion classroom. Using content analytical coding methods, they analyzed 4 lessons--each taught by a different teacher in the classroom. Results showed that the patterns of teacher talk across all 4 teachers were chiefly recitational and lacking…

Alonzo, Julie; Anderson, Daniel; Tindal, Gerald – Behavioral Research and Teaching, 2009
We present scaling outcomes for mathematics assessments used in the fall to screen students at risk of failing to learn the knowledge and skills described in the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Focal Point Standards. At each grade level, the assessment consisted of a 48-item test with three 16-item sub-test sets aligned to the…

Marin, Katherine Ariemma; White, Stephanie J. – School Science and Mathematics, 2023
Middle and high school students are part of Generation Z (birth years 1997-2012), a group that is emerging as very different from their parents and teachers. This article considers ways that generational research about Generation Z learners and NCTM's Effective Mathematics Teaching Practices can be used to inform and innovate practice in the…

Brahier, Daniel; Leinwand, Steve; Huniker, DeAnn – Mathematics Teacher, 2014
The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) launched the "standards-based" education movement in North America in 1989 with the release of "Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics," an unprecedented action to promote systemic improvement in mathematics education. Now, twenty-five years later, the…

Ward, Jennifer – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2020
In working with the youngest learners, drawing from their own lived experiences to inform mathematics instruction is a critical piece for engaging with as well as supporting students in mathematizing their world (NAEYC and NCTM 2002, 2010; NCTM 2020). In the interaction described in this article, four-year-old children used mathematics to examine…

The use of student-centered practices is influenced by several factors (Peterson et al., 1989). Specifically self-efficacy has been shown to influence teachers' self-reported teaching practices (Hadley & Dorward, 2011; Peterson et al., 1989; Skaalvik & Skaalvik, 2007). The purpose of this study was to determine possible relationships among…
