SUPPORTING MATHEMATICAL PROFICIENCY FOR ALL
STUDENTSDavid
Foster, Director, Noyce Foundation; & Patricia Duckhorn, Director,
K-12 Math, Sacramento COE What can we do to foster
and support mathematical proficiency for all students? How can research
inform instructional practices? How do we advocate for high-quality
mathematics instruction and assessment? See examples (videos, data,
case studies) that respond to the questions posed, drawing on the work
of the California Algebra Forum. This network of key mathematics
organizations proposes a clear vision and action plan for supporting
mathematics proficiency for all students.
