This document discusses teacher professional development and the theory-practice dichotomy in mathematics education. It provides an overview of the relevant literature on this topic and examines different models that have been proposed to describe the relationship between theory and practice. It then describes an initiative in Germany called "Mathematics Done Differently" which aims to better address teachers' needs through innovative approaches to professional development, such as offering courses tailored to teachers' specific requests. The document concludes by reflecting on the successes and challenges of this approach to bridging theory and practice.

Editor's Notes
- I was asked to contribute and to participate, but the topic was not chosen by me. Nevertheless, so I regard the topic as a challenge, I approached the issue from a more theoretical point of view but also learnt that I often worked in this field, however not consciously being aware. In some sense my approach is genetic, the genetic principle - by the way - a very fruitful and important one in didactics. Thus I invite you to follow me - and I repeat myself: it is my intention to throw light on the theoretical aspects on the topic, but imminantly I apply the framework to an actual project in which I am involved.
