Profound Understanding of Emergent Mathematics: Broadening the Construct of Teachers' Disciplinary Knowledge
Davis, Brent; Renert, Moshe
Educational Studies in Mathematics, v82 n2 p245-265 Feb 2013
We discuss the teachers' disciplinary knowledge of mathematics in this article, arguing two main points as we report on a 2-year study involving 22 practicing teachers. First we argue that teachers' knowledge of mathematics might be productively construed as a complex evolving form, a significant dimension of which is tacit knowledge. Second, based on our first point, we suggest that this knowledge is better understood as a learnable disposition than a domain to be mastered.
