Abstract
“The goal of this project was to initiate and support collaborative work among experts from different fields of research in generating a set of documents that addressed the nation-wide problem of needing to provide high quality mathematics professional development (PD) at scale to support the implementation of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM). Over the course of the year, researchers worked through a set of activities designed to integrate various perspectives on this problem into a set of design recommendations for what should be considered when creating, sustaining, and assessing PD systems.”
