Abstract

Despite major differences in course delivery, the critical components of effective online mathematics teacher education may not be different from the critical components of effective face-to-face mathematics teacher education. Research indicates that components of effective mathematics teacher education include (a) aesthetic experiences with mathematics, (b) confronting personal beliefs about mathematics, (c) engaging in practical inquiry, and (d) discussing pedagogical implications in the context of mathematics education literature. This paper describes the case of an online mathematics education course for in-service elementary teachers, and discusses issues of design and effect of online experiences.
