Abstract

Video is a powerful tool in professional development (PD) that can support teacher learning of content and skills. In the mathematics field, PD aligned with high quality standards is especially needed to help teachers gain mathematical knowledge for teaching and to develop fluency in making instructional decisions that support students’ learning of challenging content. The Learning and Teaching Geometry intervention consists of well-specified PD materials that engage teachers in learning complex mathematical concepts through video cases. This paper describes a grouprandomized efficacy study examining the effectiveness of this intervention. The findings suggest that the intervention strongly impacted teachers’ instructional practice, leading to some student learning improvements.
