Brown, Stacy A.; Pitvorec, Kathleen; Ditto, Catherine; Kelso, Catherine Randall – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2009
Recent research on mathematics reforms in the United States indicates that the reforms are not yet widely implemented. Generally, this claim results from looking at the extent to which teachers use curricular materials or engage in particular classroom practices. This article moves beyond disparate questions of use and practice to examine…
