Nearly a decade ago, NCTM published Administrator's Guide: How to Support and Improve Mathematics Education in Your School. This updated Administrator's Guide
now positions school and district leaders to make sense of the past
decade's many recommendations, with special emphasis on the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics.
Focusing on similarities between these new standards and those outlined in NCTM's influential Principles and Standards for School Mathematics,
this handbook efficiently highlights reasoning processes that are
essential in any high-quality mathematics program. Students who know
these processes are set to "do math" in any context, real or abstract.
Research indicates that many individuals within a school can and do
contribute to the work of leading and managing a school. This guide can
support anyone who is working to improve mathematics education—either
alone or with others.
Make the most of the rare opportunity that the Common Core State
Standards offer for rethinking school mathematics and creating exciting
new pathways from high school to college and beyond.
Includes answers to "Frequently Asked Questions" and detailed lists of resources to support school mathematics programs.
