Download or read book International Reflections on the Netherlands Didactics of Mathematics written by Marja van den Heuvel-Panhuizen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book, inspired by the ICME 13 Thematic Afternoon on “European Didactic Traditions”, takes readers on a journey with mathematics education researchers, developers and educators in eighteen countries, who reflect on their experiences with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), the domain-specific instruction theory for mathematics education developed in the Netherlands since the late 1960s. Authors from outside the Netherlands discuss what aspects of RME appeal to them, their criticisms of RME and their past and current RME-based projects. It is clear that a particular approach to mathematics education cannot simply be transplanted to another country. As such, in eighteen chapters the authors describe how they have adapted RME to their individual circumstances and view on mathematics education, and tell their personal stories about how RME has influenced their thinking on mathematics education.

Download or read book Linear Equations Workbook written by Maria Miller and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-06 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear Equations Workbook presents the student with the basics of solving linear equations, including equations that involve a variable on both sides and equations that require the usage of the distributive property to eliminate parentheses. We also briefly study inequalities and graphing. This workbook best suits pre-algebra or grades 7 to 8 mathematics studies. The first lesson reviews the concept of an equation and how to model equations using a pan balance (scale). The basic principle for solving equations is that, when you perform the same operation on both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal. The workbook presents two alternatives for keeping track of the operations to be performed on an equation. The one method, writing the operation under each side of the equation, is common in the United States. The other method, writing the operation in the right margin, is common in Finland. Either way is correct, and the choice is just a matter of the personal preference of the teacher. The introduction to solving equations is followed by a lesson on addition and subtraction equations and another on multiplication and division equations. All the equations are easily solved in only one step of calculations. The twofold goal is to make the student proficient in manipulating negative integers and also to lay a foundation for handling more involved equations that are studied later on in the workbook. In the next lesson, students write equations to solve simple word problems. Even though they could solve most of these problems without using the equations, the purpose of the lesson is to make the student proficient in writing simple equations before moving on to more complex equations from more difficult word problems. The next topic, in the lesson Constant Speed, is solving problems with distance (d), rate or velocity (v), and time (t). Students use the equivalent formulas d = vt and v = d/t to solve problems involving constant or average speed. They learn an easy way to remember the formula v = d/t from the unit for speed that they already know, "miles per hour." In later lessons, we delve deeper into our study of equations. Now the equations require two or more steps to solve and may contain parentheses. The variable may appear on both sides of the equation. Students will also write equations to solve simple word problems. There is also a lesson on patterns of growth, which may seem to be simply a fascinating topic, but in reality presents the fundamentals of a very important concept in algebra - that of linear functions (although they are not mentioned by that name) - and complements the study of lines in the subsequent lessons. After the section about equations, the text briefly presents the basics of inequalities and how to graph them on a number line. Students apply the principles for solving equations to solve simple inequalities and word problems that involve inequalities. The last major topic is graphing. Students begin the section by learning to graph linear equations and continue on to the concept of slope, which in informal terms is a measure of the inclination of a line. More formally, slope can be defined as the ratio of the change in y-values to the change in x-values. The final lesson applies graphing to the previously-studied concepts of speed, time, and distance through graphs of the equation d = vt in the coordinate plane.

Book excerpt: What comes to mind when you think about lesson planning? If you're like most teachers, you focus on the material you need to present, what you will do and say, what you will ask students to do, and the assessments you will create and administer. And if you're like most teachers, you also know what it's like to be disappointed when this careful planning doesn't always lead to the deep understanding and mastery you'd intended. There's a better way to approach instructional design says author and teacher-educator Ann R. Reeves, and it's within every teacher's grasp. It begins with a simple mental shift from "planning for activities" to "planning for learning outcomes" and a critical concentration on learning objectives. Remarkable for its clarity and filled with vivid examples, Where Great Teaching Begins is a step-by-step walk through the crucial, behind-the-scenes intellectual work necessary to make instruction truly effective and help students learn deeply and meaningfully. Here, you'll discover how to * Translate even the most inscrutable standards into strong, learning-focused objectives. * Use effective objectives as the basis for excellent assessment. * Craft engaging learning activities that incorporate both targeted content and necessary thinking skills. * Pull objectives, assessments, and learning activities together into powerful plans for learning. Whether you're a novice instructional designer or a veteran seeking a new, streamlined process, this book is a must-read take on how to plan and achieve the excellent learning all teachers aim for and all students deserve.
