Historical Perspectives:
• Math was taught as a set of facts, rules, and procedures
• Recent reforms triggered the development of Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989, 1991,1995)
• Revised standards became known as Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM, 2000)
• Identified six overarching principles

Current NCTM Standards (K-12):
• Number and Operations• Algebra• Geometry• Measurement• Data Analysis and
Probability
• Problem Solving• Reasoning and
Proof• Communication• Connections• Representations

How do these standards relate to Access?
• No information on how to address individual needs of students with disabilities
• The 2000 Principles & Standards briefly addresses students with disabilities in their Equity Principle (p. 11)
• However, according to Maccini & Gagnon (2002), many special and general educators are not aware of the NCTM standards

Suggestions from research :
According to Carnine (1998), five major components are required for effective mathematics instruction. These include:
• Focus on “big ideas”
• Teach “conspicuous” strategies (neither too broad or too specific) (see also Montague, 1998).

For example

Suggestions from research (cont):
• Make efficient use of time on prioritized objectives.
• Communicate strategies in a clear, explicit manner.
• Provide practice and review to promote retention (Mastropieri & Scruggs, 2004; Harniss, Stein, & Carnine, 2000).

Other evidence-based strategies(Not specific to mathematics instruction)
• Cooperative Learning,
• Mnemonic Instruction,
• Class Wide Peer Tutoring, and
• Direct Instruction (Harniss, Stein, & Carnine, 2000).

Concluding ThoughtsAccording to the National Research Council (1989):
Mathematics is the key to opportunity. No longer just the language of science, mathematics now contributes in direct and fundamental ways to business, finance, health, and defense. For students, it opens doors to careers. For citizens, it enables informed decisions. For nations, it provides knowledge to compete in a technological economy. To participate fully in the world of the future, America must tap the power of mathematics (p.1).
