Considering how to use first principles of instruction and video technologies to support teachers’ professional learning in mathematics education
(Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2021) Polly, Drew; Recesso, Art; Hannafin, Michael J.
Merrill’s First Principles of Instruction provide a framework for the design of learner-centered instruction. In this article we examine how those Principles of Instruction provide a framework to examine effective ways to leverage the use of video technologies to enhance the design and implement professional learning for mathematics teachers. We synthesize the First Principles of Instruction, the Launch-Explore-Discuss lesson cycle in mathematics (Polly, 2017b; Tools4NCTeachers, n.d.), and principles of learner-centered professional learning (Polly & Hannafin, 2010). We then describe vignettes about how video technologies can enhance professional learning experiences that align to the First Principles of Instruction and learner-centered professional learning. We close with implications and recommendations for research and practice for future endeavors
