In this paper a teacher professional development program composed of three strategies and whose articulating strand is problem solving is presented. These strategies, which we call RPAction Workshop, RPContent and RPClassroom Workshop, are intended to promote the development of mathematics skills and strengthen mathematical knowledge, both for mathematics teachers and students from different grade levels, thus meeting the requirements of the new mathematics curriculum. This article describes each of these workshops, its foundations and pilot schemes. These workshops form the core of a Fondef development project.
