This group does research on the effect of mathematics content interventions on student achievement results (such as ITBS scores), through professional development on mathematics content for their teachers.
Effects on teacher content knowledge are also studied with a variety of local and national instruments. Recent research efforts have also included delivery of teacher professional development training in learning-community-type models such as Lesson Study.
