Glimpses of the Mathematical World of Children Through Videos

This session will show how children think about mathematics using videos from the Capturing Mathematical Learning (CML) Project.  CML is a National Science Foundation funded project to develop videos about how children learn mathematics. These videos are designed to help teachers, students, and parents learn more about how children come to know mathematics.
