Knowledge at the Mathematical Horizon

Picture

This research explores the link between teachers' Knowledge at the Mathematical Horizon and their developing pedagogical sensitivities and their abilities to anticipate and respond to student learning.  It examines how a more robust KMH may help teachers break away from familiar routines or strategies and broaden their expectations for what are important and helpful experiences for learners. ​
