Designing, facilitating, and scaling-up video-based professional development: supporting complex forms of teaching in science and mathematics

Abstract This special issue brings together four effective video-based professional development programs—two in mathematics and two in science—that use classroom videos as the centerpiece of their efforts and have “scaling up” as their goal. In each paper, the authors surface their design considerat...
