IMPROVING PRACTICE THROUGH RESEARCH ON
CLASSROOM TEACHING AND LEARNING
Dr. Stuessy has spent her professional career
investigating qualities of the “expert” classroom teacher. She uses terms such as flow, orchestration, cognitive
complexity, higher-order thinking, mental models, and
student initiative to “make sense” of teaching expertise
in designing and implementing effective 21st century
mathematics and science lessons. Dr. Stuessy is former
president of the School Science and Mathematics Association, known internationally for its focus on the integration of mathematics and science in contemporary K16 classrooms. She has a record of extensive graduate
teaching, research and grant support addressing the
enhancement of mathematics and science teaching
through integration, interdisciplinary teaching, technology, cross-disciplinary partnerships with scientists and engineers, and innovative assessment. This workshop uses
videotapes of classroom lessons to provide participants
with hands-on experience in characterizing and visualizing teachers’ practice in implementing mathematics and
science lessons. Outcomes of the day will include certification in the use of the Mathematics and Science Classroom Observation Protocol System (M-SCOPS), useful in
pre- and inservice mentoring, research, and evaluation
settings.
