A one-line description of the project
Background
Background
My name is I-Ling Hsiung and I am a General Education Multiple Subjects teacher based in California, USA. I received the Fulbright Distinguished Awards in Teaching grant to conduct educational research on Singapore's mathematics instruction and teaching approaches from January to July 2023. I worked closely with members of Singapore's Ministry of Education, the Academy of Singapore Teachers and three primary host schools to teach, observe, interview and learn best practices for problem-solving and deep mathematical thinking. My inquiry project focused on designing a technology-based mathematics enrichment program synergizing Singapore’s Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (C-P-A) approach and math circles. This website serves as an online resource guide of best practices with practical tools and resources. It continues to be a work in progress.

The Fulbright Distinguished Awards in Teaching Research Program
The Fulbright Distinguished Awards in Teaching Research Program is sponsored by the United States Department of State, Bureau of Education and Cultural Affairs and administered by the International Research and Exchanges Board (IREX). It offers grants and the opportunity for K-12 educators all over the world to travel abroad, conduct research, take courses at a host university and engage in professional learning experiences for 3 to 6 months. Research projects can be on a topic of personal interest relevant to education in the United States and the selected host country. Upon returning home, educators will share knowledge of experience abroad with their home community.
