The course objective of Developing Classroom Math Discourse: math•ed•ology™ is to increase the teachers' understanding of the NCTM Teaching Standards on discourse and their ability to implement these in their math classroom. Each CD-ROM features video of classroom lessons, expert commentary on the lessons, examples of student work, focus questions for viewing, and four areas of self-assessment (Identify, Reflect, Extend, and Apply).

This course uses videos of classroom lessons stored on CD-ROM to stimulate reflection about various issues of teaching mathematics to elementary school children. Although enrolled students may work through the course materials at their own rate, they must set a goal of completion within the semester in which they registered.
