Monday, April 15, 2013: 5:30 PM-6:45 PM
Lobby A (Colorado Convention Center)
Lead Speaker:
Matthew Chedister


Description of Presentation:

Students might struggle with proofs because teachers focus too much on the final product and not enough on inductive practices that lead to proof. This research project studies the effects of a professional development program that focuses on inductive methods in teachers’ beliefs, attitudes, and practices.
