Abstract

The presentation will be based on a productive collaboration with an elementary school teacher that has taken place over the last six years within the context of mathematics teaching developmental research projects. The projects have been led by a team of about ten didacticians at the university and included teachers from twelve schools (grades 1 through 13) and five kindergartens, all located in the southern tip of Norway. I will draw on publications that I have co-authored with the teacher, and other research reports that have used episodes from his classes. The presentation will begin with an introduction to the projects: their developmental and research goals, theoretical perspectives, and methodological principles. Through the presentation I aim to explore some of the constraints and opportunities of teacher-didactician collaboration in the light of ethical and practical considerations arising in the developmental research in which my colleagues and I have been engaged.
