  1. High School MathematicsReal World of the Teacher Introductions Teaching as a Profession Standards Accountability

  2. Teacher as Professional • Draw and explain two pictures • One that represents the qualities of an ideal mathematics teacher and their classroom • One that represents the qualities of a poor mathematics teacher and their classroom

  3. Teaching as a Profession • Highly Qualified Teacher • NAU graduation requirements • State certification requirements • Status in school and community • Contributions to society/community • Sense of personal satisfaction • Stability of employment • Advantages for family life

  4. NCTM Principles and Standards for School Mathematics • Equity • High expectations and support for all students • Curriculum • Coherent and focused on important mathematics • Teaching • Understand what students know and need to learn • Challenge and support them to learn it well • Learning • Learn with understanding • Assessment • Support learning of important mathematics • Provide useful information to students and teachers • Technology • Essential in teaching and learning mathematics

  5. Principles and Standards for School Mathematics • Process Standards • Problem Solving • Reasoning and Proof • Communication • Connections • Representation • Content Standards • Number and Operations • Algebra • Geometry • Measurement • Data Analysis and Probability

  6. NCTM Standards • Were these principles and standards evident in instruction in your high school mathematics courses? If so, how?

  7. Accountability • No Child Left Behind • Mathematics assessment administered not less than once during grades 3-5, 6-9, and 10-12 • Highly Qualified Teachers • Proficiency Testing • Assessment results • Public Information • Label schools as high or low-performing

  8. Accountability in the Classroom • Were the qualifications of math teachers and the performance of students on standardized assessments issues of concern at your high school? • What do you perceive as: • Positive connections between testing and teaching? • Negative connections between testing and teaching?

  9. Mathematics Education Homework • What are some of the key ideas from the NCTM Principles and Standards for School Mathematics? • Describe how the PSSM were and/or were not evident in your school experience? • Share any final thoughts about the importance of highly qualified mathematics teachers implementing these guidelines for student success?
