Abstract for the conference program
In a course for teachers called Math 2008 we have embedded a research project where prospective elementary teachers conduct an interview with a child and situate the child’s responses within research on whole number development. They also mathematically analyze any strategies the child uses. During our session, we plan to discuss how engagement in this research project contributes to the prospective teachers’ mathematical knowledge for teaching as well as their awareness of how children know and understand mathematics.
