2015 Focus Issue: Creating Classroom Communities
NCTM
guides mathematics teachers toward equitable teaching by emphasizing the importance
of classroom communities. The MT Editorial Panel invites teachers,
teacher educators, and education researchers to share their experiences in
building classroom communities. We encourage submissions that will help MT
readers learn new ways to capitalize on the strengths that cultural, racial,
and linguistic diversity bring to our classrooms and schools.
Open the Door and Keep it Open
This call replaces and updates a prior call for manuscripts on teaching entry level classes. The Editorial Panel seeks manuscripts that will assist teachers who work with algebra and geometry students or students who are in a first or second year integrated curriculum.
Mathematizing the World: An Invitation to Modeling
The Mathematics Teacher Editorial Panel seeks manuscripts that will help teachers incorporate more modeling in their classrooms. The increased emphasis on modeling in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics has made this call particularly timely.
2014 Focus Issue: What Makes Ideas Stick?
Teachers design lessons to engage students with big ideas of mathematics. Does engagement necessarily imply that students will retain what we hope they will retain? The Editorial Panel of Mathematics Teacher solicits manuscripts that examine lesson characteristics that seem to promote the permanence of concepts in the minds of your students. There is a July 1, 2013 deadline for submission of manuscripts.
On the Front Burner: Emerging Issues in Mathematics Education
This is an exciting time to be a mathematics educator. The recent global scrutiny of mathematics education, forthcoming curricular changes, and evolving technological innovations generate controversial issues. Mathematics Teacher welcomes manuscripts that “stir the pot” on provocative current issues in mathematics education.
Reasoning and Sense Making
Manuscripts that describe means towards generating a culture of reasoning and sense making in the classroom will be welcomed by the Editorial Panel. This is an open call.
Assessment
It influences teaching, learning, relationships, and recruitment and retention of teachers. Let us know how you use, judge and view assessment.
