Taking Shape: Activities to Develop Geometric & Spatial Thinking
AVAILABLE NOW! Enrich your geometry curriculum and extend your students’ spatial reasoning. Research shows that children with good spatial skills perform better in mathematics overall. This research-based resource is a unique blend of professional learning and classroom activities.
Math Knowledge Network
Partnering with FNMIEAO on the Math Knowledge Network: Indigenous Knowledge and Mathematics Education Community of Practice – a four-year initiative funded by the Ontario Ministry of Education, hosted by the Centre for Mathematics Education at the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences.
The Palgrave International Handbook of Action Research
Edited by Lonnie Rowell, Catherine Bruce, Joseph Shosh, & Margaret Riel, our hope as the Handbook editors is that the print manuscript will become a living document that contributes to the further global development of action research, participatory research and practitioner research in all their varied forms. Overall, the Handbook aims to enhance global knowledge democracy and knowledge mobilization.
Math for Young Children
In the course of this project, teachers and researchers plan exploratory lessons to inform the planning and enactment of public research lessons, and use video to help capture student responses and inform next steps.
Fractions Learning Pathways
This interactive planning tool for teaching fractions provides educators with a research informed framework. It includes a range of field-tested tasks (grades 3-10) with video and photos. There are also one page summaries of key fractions math ideas and anticipation guides that feature Ontario students’ thinking.
Models of Professional Learning
Video documentation has become an integral component of data collection in educational research. Video episodes are viewed, clipped, analyzed, transcribed and analyzed again. This resource links to a number of models via our Digital Papers website.
