Summary:In March 2008, the National Mathematics Advisory Panel final report was released. This report was produced in response to an executive order from President George W. Bush. The report is important because of its subject matter-improving mathematics teaching and learning-its historically significant genesis, and the strong position that the report takes on the primacy of quantitative methods in education research. The author briefly introduces the report and then draws attention to some of the main points in the commentaries offered in this special issue of Educational Researcher. The special issue ends with a rejoinder from the chair and co-chair of the report.
