It mainly works on the aspects: the operation of the group of the junior high school mathematics teachers, the learning history of the group of the junior high school mathematics teachers, the influence of team-learning on the junior high school mathematics teachers’ growth. Through the organization and analysis of the the data, the research leads to the conclusions as following: 1. The members’ spontaneous participation and the drive of their inward motives can improve team-working and enhance team spirit. 2.

The two activities carried out by negotiation are problems of personal concern which can promote discussion and conversation between members and stimulate the deep thoughts to generate new insights. 4. The subject group can utilize such techniques as integration, interpretation , divergence, and convergence to accumulate the learning result through the four learning process: question definition, question interpretation, producing multiple solutions, and choosing solutions. 5. Respecting others’ insistence while choosing the solutions can enhance team harmony and let each member make their statement earnestly and provide their assistance willingly. 6. The growth and changes which team learning brings to the group of junior high school math teachers can conclude into the four aspects: teachers’ general proficiency knowledge, mathematics content knowledge, mathematics teaching related beliefs, and educational profession spirits. 7.The learning obstacles of the group of junior high school math teachers can conclude into the five aspects: fail to prepare before meetings, the difficulty of making statements actively and earnestly, fail to control the time limit of discussion and conversation, low completion of the edition and production of the group teaching materials, suspended problems.
