These insights are revealed in three surveys completed during the Program. Preliminary analysis has provided information about participants' expectations related to classroom practice and the professional growth that took place during the program. This growth represents a shift in focus from the acquisition of new knowledge to thinking more deeply about its applications. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | MERGA 31: 31st Annual Conference of the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, Brisbane, Australia, 28th June - 1st July, 2008 | Source of Publication: | Navigating Currents and Charting Directions: Proceedings of the 31st Annual Conference of the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, v.2, p. 345-352 | Publisher: | Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA) | Place of Publication: | Brisbane, Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130313 Teacher Education and Professional Development of Educators | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 930301 Assessment and Evaluation of Curriculum | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | E1 Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.merga.net.au/node/38?year=2008 http://www.merga.net.au/documents/RP402008.pdf |
