Here you will find resources provided by Gottesman Libraries and beyond to support your research and learning in Mathematics Education. Resources designated (CU) are accessible online through Columbia University Libraries.

Introduction

Welcome to the Mathematics Education Research Guide!

This guide is intended to describe and provide access to resources and services in support of the Mathematics Education program, the hallmarks of which are "a strong emphasis on mathematics content and the role of mathematical ways of thinking in the teaching and learning of mathematics" and the preparation of program graduates to "take positions in college teaching of mathematics in addition to pre-college professional roles."
