In collaboration with EDC’s Center for Learning and Leadership Communities, this project is producing a research-based professional development curriculum focused on geometric thinking in the middle grades. It is also creating a framework designed to help teachers better understand geometric thinking and how it develops in learners; a curriculum for professional development in geometry based on this framework; quantitative and qualitative studies of the curriculum’s impact; and research reports disseminating the results of this work.
