"Becoming a Reflective Mathematics Teacher: A Guide for
Observations and Self-Assessment" offers what every mathematics
teacher educator or supervisor has been looking for. Ideally suited
for use with students who are taking a methods course or who are
student teaching, this activity-oriented, research-based text:
*supplies detailed observation instruments that preservice
teachers can use when they observe other teachers. Each instrument
focuses on a critical aspect of instructional practice in
mathematics (e.g., tasks, learning environment, discourse). In
addition, it requires the observer to make conjectures regarding
the teachers' underlying cognitions (e.g., knowledge, beliefs,
goals) that might account for the instructional practice they
observe.
*offers reflective activities that provide a structure through
which beginning teachers can think about their teaching in an
insightful, thorough, and productive manner. Students can work
through the activities over the period of a year. The structured
observations and reflective activities are modular, and the
framework applies to all observations of teaching, no matter what
the instructional content.
*includes guidelines and instruments for supervisors to use when
observing, conferencing with, and assessing beginning or student
teachers. The unique aspect of these guidelines and instruments is
the link they make between teachers' cognitions and their
instructional practice.
All instruments and suggested activities are couched within a
highly effective framework for teacher reflection and
self-assessment that was developed in the spirit of the NCTM
professional teaching standards. This framework is grounded in a
cognitive perspective on learner-centered teaching. In Part I, the
framework is explained and its validity is documented. Part II
shows how teachers can use the framework to observe other teachers'
classroom work, and to reflect on their own teaching. Part III
offers case studies to help readers see how the method works.
