Scholarly Teaching in School Mathematics

In 2010/11, the Math Council of the Alberta Teachers’ Association (MCATA), in partnership with researchers at the University of Alberta, invited members to participate in an online survey and follow-up interviews on scholarly teaching in mathematics education. The survey asked teachers to provide information about activities related to professional reading, inquiry into teaching and dissemination of knowledge to the profession. It is our hope that this report will provide insight into how we can enhance and support the scholarly activities of teacher leaders in mathematics education.
