The second edition of this book offers a unique approach to making mathematics education research on the teaching and learning of multiplication and division concepts readily accessible and understandable to preservice and in-service K-6 mathematics teachers.Revealing students’ thought processes with extensive annotated samples of student work and vignettes characteristic of classroom teachers’ experience, this book provides teachers a research-based lens to interpret evidence of student thinking, inform instruction, and ultimately improve student learning. Based on research gathered in the Ongoing Assessment Project (OGAP) and updated throughout, this engaging and easy-to-use resource also features the followinNew chapters on the OGAP Multiplicative Reasoning Framework and Learning Progressions and Using the OGAP Multiplicative Progression to inform instruction and support student learningIn-chapter sections on how Common Core State Standards for Math are supported by math education researchCase Studiesfocusing on a core mathematical idea and different types of instructional responses to illustrate how teachers can elicit evidence of student thinking and use that information to inform instructionBig Ideasframe the chapters and provide a platform for meaningful exploration of the teaching of multiplication and divisionLooking Back Questionsat the end of each chapter allow teachers to analyze student thinking and to consider instructional strategies for their own studentsInstructional Linksto help teachers relate concepts from each chapter to their own instructional materials and programsAccompanying online Support Material that includes an answer key to Looking Back questions, as well as a copy of the OGAP Fraction Framework and ProgressionA Focus on Multiplication and Divisionis part of the popularA Focus on. . . collection, designed to aid the professional development of preservice and in-service mathematics teachers. As with the other volumes on addition and subtraction, ratios and proportions, and fractions, this updated new edition bridges the gap between what math education researchers know and what teachers need to know to better understand evidence in student work and make effective instructional decisions.
