This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, technology has become a prominent feature in our lives. Technology has not only been integrated into our lives, but into the classroom as well. Teachers have been provided with a tremendous amount of technology related tools to educate their students. However, many of these technologically enhanced tools have little to no research supporting their claims to enhance learning. This study focuses on one aspect of technology, the iBook, to complete homework relating to fractions, decimals, and percents in a sixth grade classroom. An iBook is a digital textbook that allows the user to interact with the book through various features. Some of these features include galleries, videos, review quizzes, and links to websites. These interactive features have the potential to enhance comprehension through interactivity and increased motivation. Prior to this study, two pilot iterations were conducted. During each pilot study, students in two sixth grade classrooms used the iBook to supplement learning of fractions, decimals, and percents. A comparison group was not included during either iteration, as the goal was to fine-tune the study prior to implementation. The current study was the third iteration, which included a comparison and treatment group.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this action research study of a sixth-grade mathematics classroom, I investigated how using Project Based Learning combined with collaborative learning influenced students'attitudes and beliefs in learning mathematics. I discovered that using a Project Based Learning approach to instruction helped the students see connections to math and the real world. They felt that math became something exciting instead of just lessons from a book. I also found that most students preferred to work in small groups because they had come to count on their peers for support. They felt that they were more comfortable asking their peers questions in a small-group setting than asking questions in a traditional classroom setting. Through this Project Based Learning, it also was found that classroom engagement increased when student interest was combined with a variety of challenging and authentic problem-solving tasks. Finally, this action research supports collaborative learning in the mathematics classroom because when children work together it leads to higher self-confidence and positive attitudes.
Download or read book Learning in the Fast Lane written by Suzy Pepper Rollins and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too often, students who fail a grade or a course receive remediation that ends up widening rather than closing achievement gaps. According to veteran classroom teacher and educational consultant Suzy Pepper Rollins, the true answer to supporting struggling students lies in acceleration. In Learning in the Fast Lane, she lays out a plan of action that teachers can use to immediately move underperforming students in the right direction and differentiate instruction for all learners—even those who excel academically. This essential guide identifies eight high-impact, research-based instructional approaches that will help you * Make standards and learning goals explicit to students. * Increase students' vocabulary—a key to their academic success. * Build students' motivation and self-efficacy so that they become active, optimistic participants in class. * Provide rich, timely feedback that enables students to improve when it counts. * Address skill and knowledge gaps within the context of new learning. Students deserve no less than the most effective strategies available. These hands-on, ready-to-implement practices will enable you to provide all students with compelling, rigorous, and engaging learning experiences.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years digital games have gained attention as potential tools for facilitating learning in different sectors of society including but not limited to military, health, and education. However, relatively few empirical studies have investigated the effects of digital games in the context of formal K-12 settings. This study examined data collected during a program evaluation to explore the effects of a digital game on middle school male and female students' mathematics achievement, situational motivation, and attitudes toward mathematics. The study included data from 168 students attending a private international school in Africa, who were assigned to treatment and control groups by stratified random sampling to ensure a balance of boys and girls as well as equal representation of students from grade six, seven and eight. Achievement was measured using internal school exams based on benchmarks aligned with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) standards and benchmarks. Motivation to learn mathematics was measured using the Course Interest Survey (CIS) based on Keller's ARCS model of motivation. Mathematical attitude was measured using the Fennema-Sherman Mathematical Attitude Scales (FSMAS). A Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) was performed to analyze change from pre- to post-test scores in achievement, motivation, and attitudes with the independent variables of group (control and treatment) and sex (male and female). Results showed a significant increase in mathematical achievement (b = -1.87, p

This book was released on 2016 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was conducted to examine to what degree sixth grade mathematical students' abilities to self-reflect impacted their academic achievement, mathematical attitude, self-efficacy and if awareness of how and what they learned improved as the course progressed. Students used self-reflection to evaluate personal advancement in learning. Self-reflection strategies lent to increasing mathematical self-efficacy, improving mathematical attitudes by boosting mathematical confidence toward solving problems, viewing one's self as a successful mathematician, teaching metacognition skills, and self-awareness toward learning style. Self-reflection increased students' ability to solve any mathematical problem with confidence to analyze the process needed to obtain mathematical success. This mathematical skill set proved the implementation of self-reflection in mathematics to be a significant and beneficial recommendation toward students' academic success.
Download or read book The Impact of Completing Homework Online Versus Traditional Homework on the Attitude Motivation and Academic Growth and Achievement of 7th Grade Students in an Urban Public School written by Tanisha Marie Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was the determine how completing homework online impacted 7th grade math students’ academic growth and achievement when compared to students who completed homework using traditional paper and pencil. This researcher used descriptive statistics to analyze the results of the quasi-experimental, quantitative study. Findings from this study revealed that homework modality did not have a significant statistical effect on 7th grade math students’ attitudes towards homework, their motivation to complete homework, or academic growth. However, homework modality did significantly impact student academic achievement, with results supporting traditional paper and pencil homework. Results from this study will provide further data for educational stakeholders concerning student engagement and achievement as it relates to homework and technological integration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the only one of its kind that instructs teachers to identify typical error patterns, to receive feedback on their diagnosis, and to gain insight regarding why a child may have adopted an incorrect procedure. Revised to link content to the new NCTM Standards, this new edition emphasizes the meaning of operations and using the appropriate method of computation. As in previous editions, it retains its focus on placing paper-and pencil instructional activities within the context of problem solving. Chapter topics cover diagnosing misconceptions and error patterns in computation, providing needed instruction in computation, and helping students who have learned error patterns. For mathematics teachers of special education classes or at the middle school level.
