Download or read book Mathematical Mindsets written by Jo Boaler and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-10-12 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Banish math anxiety and give students of all ages a clear roadmap to success Mathematical Mindsets provides practical strategies and activities to help teachers and parents show all children, even those who are convinced that they are bad at math, that they can enjoy and succeed in math. Jo Boaler—Stanford researcher, professor of math education, and expert on math learning—has studied why students don't like math and often fail in math classes. She's followed thousands of students through middle and high schools to study how they learn and to find the most effective ways to unleash the math potential in all students. There is a clear gap between what research has shown to work in teaching math and what happens in schools and at home. This book bridges that gap by turning research findings into practical activities and advice. Boaler translates Carol Dweck's concept of 'mindset' into math teaching and parenting strategies, showing how students can go from self-doubt to strong self-confidence, which is so important to math learning. Boaler reveals the steps that must be taken by schools and parents to improve math education for all. Mathematical Mindsets: Explains how the brain processes mathematics learning Reveals how to turn mistakes and struggles into valuable learning experiences Provides examples of rich mathematical activities to replace rote learning Explains ways to give students a positive math mindset Gives examples of how assessment and grading policies need to change to support real understanding Scores of students hate and fear math, so they end up leaving school without an understanding of basic mathematical concepts. Their evasion and departure hinders math-related pathways and STEM career opportunities. Research has shown very clear methods to change this phenomena, but the information has been confined to research journals—until now. Mathematical Mindsets provides a proven, practical roadmap to mathematics success for any student at any age.

Download or read book Mindset Mathematics written by Jo Boaler and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engage students in mathematics using growth mindset techniques The most challenging parts of teaching mathematics are engaging students and helping them understand the connections between mathematics concepts. In this volume, you'll find a collection of low floor, high ceiling tasks that will help you do just that, by looking at the big ideas at the first-grade level through visualization, play, and investigation. During their work with tens of thousands of teachers, authors Jo Boaler, Jen Munson, and Cathy Williams heard the same message—that they want to incorporate more brain science into their math instruction, but they need guidance in the techniques that work best to get across the concepts they needed to teach. So the authors designed Mindset Mathematics around the principle of active student engagement, with tasks that reflect the latest brain science on learning. Open, creative, and visual math tasks have been shown to improve student test scores, and more importantly change their relationship with mathematics and start believing in their own potential. The tasks in Mindset Mathematics reflect the lessons from brain science that: There is no such thing as a math person - anyone can learn mathematics to high levels. Mistakes, struggle and challenge are the most important times for brain growth. Speed is unimportant in mathematics. Mathematics is a visual and beautiful subject, and our brains want to think visually about mathematics. With engaging questions, open-ended tasks, and four-color visuals that will help kids get excited about mathematics, Mindset Mathematics is organized around nine big ideas which emphasize the connections within the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and can be used with any current curriculum.

Download or read book 200 Math Brain Building Problems Grade 4 written by Learn 2 Think and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty-first-century kids would need much more than the traditional skills of reading, writing, and computation to prepare for the 21st-century careers. The attribute that will set them apart is not just their knowledge but what they can do with it. Thinking, wondering and questioning is the only survival skills that will help children to prepare for future. Attributes such as problem-solving, reasoning and pattern recognition, creative thinking that show that a student can understand, interpret and use the information available would be an impeccable skill set to have. Thinking skills are not something that one is innately born with; thinking skills can be and must be nurtured, taught and learnt with systemic approach and material. While a child may get great theory and knowledge lessons but to be good at critical thinking skills it is necessary to internalise the theoretical principles so that we can actually apply them in daily life. When we start thinking about the knowledge that we have, that's when our knowledge becomes wisdom. For example, we might study in the classroom about how to swim and learn about all the basic theory about what makes a good swimmer but unless we can apply and explore such theoretical knowledge through constant practice, we might not actually be able to swim. This book is a good start at the journey of Thinking with your child. It aims to supplement and extend children's Mathematical knowledge. The fun and engaging Math problems in the book would stretch child's thinking and provide great opportunities for applying the Math concepts learnt at school. It's time to not only know your Math...but to THINK with it!
