Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: This paper theoretically examines teacher learning based on our efforts to create and study a professional development (pd) experience for elementary mathematics teachers in urban charter schools. Although research has identified components necessary to include within pd opportunities, how these experiences should be envisioned and their impact on teacher change, and eventually student learning, have not been fully explored (Fishman, Marx, Best, & Tal, 2003). This work extends this underdeveloped area of research in two substantial ways: (1) in our effort we have implemented recommended facets of pd through the lens of content and pedagogy, and (2) we have situated this work in an underrepresented context (urban, charter school).
