Explore how secondary mathematics teachers can learn to select tasks that foster student generalization through this research presentation from the January 2025 MathEd Forum. Discover findings from doctoral research examining teacher learning in a professional development workshop designed using a novel instructional model where educators develop knowledge of generalizing as a mathematical practice. Learn about the challenges students face when engaging in generalization, a central practice in mathematical reasoning, and examine how one in-service secondary mathematics teacher progressed through the workshop by generalizing in increasingly sophisticated ways and revising tasks to engage students in productive generalizing activity. Gain insights into effective professional development design that supports mathematics teachers in helping students develop this crucial mathematical reasoning skill.
