Authors: David Pagni, Dianne DeMille

A major hypothesis underlying TASEL-M assumed that developing strong PLCs would bring about change in the teaching culture and a gain in pedagogical content knowledge of the teachers which would lead to changes in teaching practice, that would in turn result in enhanced student understanding of and performance in mathematics at all of the TASEL-M schools.
