Back to NCTM San Diego: Math Ed Reform

This is the summary of a presentation given at the 74th Annual NCTM Meeting, 25-28 April 1996, San Diego, CA.

In this session we will present examples of dilemmas faced by a teacher during the early stages of implementing mathematics instructional reform, discuss how the teacher came to "manage" the dilemmas, and look at how dilemmas salient in the early stages of reform play out over time. The co-presenters (teacher and researcher) will draw on their work in the QUASAR project as a basis for the discussion.
