Curriculum Implementation
|
How true your comments are in regards to curriculum being a script for
teachers to follow (especially in California). In our work with
teachers in developing content knowledge we are finding it difficult
for teachers to look at what is the Big Mathematical idea and meld that
with our current curriculums. We know we are having a modicum of
success in that we are seeing more class discussions. We also use
Lenses on Learning and are finding our administrators want teachers to
move more quickly into a role that many teachers are not comfortable
given the types of curriculum we use. Your poster presentation
especially your suggestions were very poignant given the state of
mathematics in California
