NCTM Process Standards



National Council of Teachers of Mathematics has a list of five process standards Problem Solving, Reasoning and Proof, Communication, Connections, and Representation (NCTM, 2012). Each of these standards gives students the tools he or she needs to excel at math. Within each of these standards are guidelines to understanding mathematics and utilizing this understanding in real-world applications. Math does not have to be difficult or ridged to learn. Math is precise but there is more than one route the individual can take to arrive at the correct destination.
