q2 i? The review reports that in a systemic-approach project for in-service mathematics teachers of Latino students, preliminary results showed teachers had difficulties making connections across processes, concepts, assessment, and subjects, and that short-term, fragmented training hinders acquiring a holistic view. → Vilma Mesa 1998

q2 · i? · review · r2
Narrative review attributing this to Khisty (1997), a project for in-service mathematics teachers using a systemic approach to help teachers acquire a holistic view of their teaching activity with Latino students. The review reports preliminary results showing the connection difficulties quoted, and that "most training programs are short-termed and also fragmented". No effect sizes are printed.
"Preliminary results on the teachers' change show that the teachers have difficulties in understanding concepts and skills of their own teaching repertoire and in making connections between processes and concepts in mathematics, between assessment and instruction, and between mathematics and other subjects."
