The final report states, "teachers must know in detail and from a more advanced perspective the mathematical content they are responsible for teaching..." This webinar covers promising practices of how districts are helping to build their teachers' capacity as well as strategies for improving teachers' understanding of how student developmentally learn mathematics.
