Posts of general interest to AMTE members and the public, some with limited time-frame of relevance.
Starting in Spring 2014, the AMTE Web Team (Joe Champion, Tony Nguyen, and Tim Hendrix) has been working to update the web design and content management system for our website.
Working in collaboration with the AMTE Board of Directors and the many site contributors, the team expects most changes to be finalized during the first part of the 2014-2015 academic year.
We appreciate your patience and support as we work to improve the website.
The National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics (NCSM) and the Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) affirm the centrality of research-based, mathematically focused, formative assessment—a key element in the national effort to improve mathematics proficiency. Formative assessment needs to be intentionally and systematically integrated into classroom instruction at every grade level. This requires adequate attention in the preparation of new teachers of mathematics and in the continuing education and professional development of current teachers.
