The mathematics education doctoral students Helene Leonard, Youngjun Kim, and Amy Daniel are supported by MSU faculty Dr. Joseph DiNapoli and MSU research associate Dr. Victoria Bonaccorso. Their work was related to their research assistantships on the Analyzing Instruction in Mathematics Using the TRU Framework (AIM-TRU) project. Their presentation was entitled “Characterizing Mathematics Teacher Learning through Collegial Conversation in a Community of Practice.” In their research, they found that teacher learning about powerful mathematics instruction was most apparent when teachers respectfully disagreed with each other about problems of practice and their solutions. Their findings suggest designs of professional development learning environments that more directly encourage such collegial conversation. Nice work Helene, Youngjun, and Amy!
