Tamas--
If you go to http://www.learner.org you can view the complete Annenberg/CPB Math and Science video collection. If you wish, you can call 800-965-8383 to order free previews which include an overview of the video library and one complete video module.
At the same site you can get information about the Annenberg/CPB Channel. They broadcast the entire video collection as well as free workshops for k-12 math and science teachers. They will even let you record, duplicate, and rebroadcast all of the programs on the Channel. If you want to go directly to the information on the workshop series, the url is http://www.learner.org/channel/workshops/math/. Starting last Tuesday is a new workshop series (of 8 over 8 weeks) for k-5 math and science teachers entitled, "The Next Move." This series of workshops is intended to help teachers take some very concrete steps toward improving instruction. Descriptions of all of the workshop series are at the Channel web site, as is the broadcast schedule.
There also is a list of all broadcasters so you can see if the Channel is already coming to you via a PBS station, a cable channel or a school or district channel. If you have questions about the Channel you can call Nicole Stark at 800-228-8030 or correspond with her via the web.
Included in the collection--as mentioned by Anna--are video libraries showing unrehearsed, unscripted--but edited for length--programs of elementary, middle, and high school teachers. All of the math libraries are produced by WGBH and are based on the NCTM Standards. The videos are intended to provoke discussion rather than present models, though the teachers are very good.
We'll be having sessions at the AMTE conference in Chicago on the math libraries and on the Channel in case you want to know more about the video collection or the Channel
Hope this helps.
