Finland is among this group. Even though its mathematics education system has some common characteristics with other top-performing nations, such as a great social respect for the teaching profession, it also has unique characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe USNC\/MI, a standing committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, planned a workshop at which U.S. and Finnish mathematics educators could exchange information and ideas about the preparation of new mathematics teachers and the means of providing them with support and professional development throughout their careers. While this is not the first time U.S. and Finnish mathematics educators have discussed educational practices, this workshop focused primarily on teacher development in both nations in the context of mathematics education. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies of Sciences Engineeri,Policy and Global Affairs,Board on International Scientific Organi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0309465893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780309465892\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/05\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"National Academies of Sciences Engineeri","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48447697682687,"sku":"9780309465892","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_344473a4-c4aa-4b8c-af0e-3241df8f676c.jpg?v=1777234196","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/supporting-mathematics-teachers-in-the-national-academies-of-sciences-engineeri-9780309465892","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
