The Teaching and Learning of Mathematics at University Level - An ICMI Study
This book arose from the ICMI Study into the teaching and learning of mathematics at university level that began with a conference in Singapore in 1998.

Language Teacher Supervision illuminates an under-explored area of the language teaching profession. Using case studies of actual teaching situations, the book explores such issues as teacher evaluation, autonomy, authority and awareness and attitude. It contains a wealth of practical detail on gathering data and providing feedback in post-observation conferences with teachers. A variety of cases, together with a comprehensive review of the literature, offers valuable insights into the dynamic, interactive process of language teacher supervision.
