Into part I: How videos and audio technology support the professional development of teachers

Abstract

Part I comprises five chapters. The first three chapters report the work conducted in Singapore. The diverse contents of each of the chapter illustrate how video technology is used to address the different needs of some of the Singapore teachers. The penultimate chapter of Part I illustrates how a group of Philippine teachers used video clubs to help them engage with the extension component of problem-solving. The last chapter provides empirical evidence of the challenges faced by Malaysian mathematics educators as they try to introduce lesson study methodology to teachers from a multiethnic society.
