Until recently there had been relatively little integration of programs of research on teaching, learning, curriculum, and assessment. However, in the last few years it has become increasingly apparent that a more unified program of research is needed to acquire an understanding of teaching and learning in schools that will inform curriculum development and assessment. The chapters in this volume represent a first step toward an integration of research paradigms in one clearly specified mathematical domain. Integrating a number of different research perspectives is a complex task, and ways...

This volume focuses on the important mathematical idea of functions that, with the technology of computers and calculators, can be dynamically represented in ways that have not been possible previously. The book's editors contend that as result of recent technological developments combined with the integrated knowledge available from research on teaching, instruction, students' thinking, and assessment, curriculum developers, researchers, and teacher educators are faced with an unprecedented opportunity for making dramatic changes.

This volume focuses on the important mathematical idea of functions which can be dynamically represented with technology in ways that have not been possible previously. The book's editors contend that as a result of recent technological developments and the integrated knowledge available from research on teaching, instruction, students' thinking and assessment, we are faced with an unprecedented opportunity for making dramatic curriculum change.

Using a variety of research methods, this study addresses the need for professional development leaders and policy makers to influence teachers to modify their mathematics instruction so it is closer to the recommendations of the National Council of Teachers in Mathematics.
