Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algebra is the language that must be mastered for any course that uses math because it is the gateway for entry into any science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) discipline. This book fosters mastery of critical math and algebraic concepts and skills essential to all of the STEM disciplines and some of the social sciences. This book is written by practitioners whose primary teaching subject is not math but who use math extensively in their courses in STEM disciplines, social science statistics, and their own research. Moreover, in the writing of this book, the authors have used the teaching principles of anchoring, overlearning, pruning the course to its essentials, and using simple and familiar language in word problems.

Download or read book Teaching Learners Who Struggle with Mathematics written by Helene J. Sherman and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly regarded by instructors in past editions for its sequencing of topics and extensive set of exercises, the latest edition of Abstract Algebra retains its concrete approach with its gentle introduction to basic background material and its gradual increase in the level of sophistication as the student progresses through the book. Abstract concepts are introduced only after a careful study of important examples. Beachy and Blair’s clear narrative presentation responds to the needs of inexperienced students who stumble over proof writing, who understand definitions and theorems but cannot do the problems, and who want more examples that tie into their previous experience. The authors introduce chapters by indicating why the material is important and, at the same time, relating the new material to things from the student’s background and linking the subject matter of the chapter to the broader picture. Building proficiency in learning mathematics by tailoring instruction to students’ specific misconceptions and learning needs is the backbone of this indispensable text, written for K–8 pre- and inservice teachers, as well tutors. An important theme is that long-term retention is based on a strong conceptual foundation of numeracy and on a well-designed learning environment. Each chapter deals with a different mathematics topic, including whole numbers, fractions, decimals, as well as time and money. Chapters also include examples of error patterns and specific, well-defined strategies and activities for diagnosis, prescription, and remediation. New to this edition is a chapter devoted to English language learners. The complexities of language barriers are delineated along with reasons that students struggle with learning English and mathematics at the same time. An audio file of common mathematics terms translated from English into most-often spoken languages by ELLs can be accessed at www.youareamathperson.com. Outstanding features: • Response to Intervention (RTI) model underpins discussions of differentiating instruction. • Mathematics content reflects components of the Common Core State Standards Initiative for Mathematics and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics’ Principles and Standards for School Mathematics. • Case studies and student examples promote a sound understanding of learners’ varied cognitive, behavioral, and physical needs. • Discussion questions challenge readers to think more deeply about the application and utility of concepts related to the error patterns. • Step-by-step directions for interactive instructional classroom games and activities are provided to extend and enrich teaching and learning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental Education Preparation suggests faculty development that can be used for teaching developmental education and corequisites courses, specifically in mathematics. Providing a look into the needs of students that may not be prepared for college level courses, the premise of the book is to prepare the faculty as much as possible to handle a developmental course. Complete with techniques, pedagogy, instructional skills, when combined all together, this book can help with developing meaningful professional development on any campus across the nation. The interviews presented in this book provide the reality of some faculty of developmental mathematics education and revealed common trends in the needs and characteristics of corequisite courses. Based on the themes found, professional development is suggested to aid in helping shift any negative components of those themes. The themes help better understand the needs of teaching these challenging courses. Student success should start with faculty making sure they are equipped with the tools and understanding of the students. Student’s readiness starts with the faculty’s readiness. Having the combined understanding of faculty and student needs can help to create a professional development plan that will enhance the developmental level mathematics courses in higher education.
Download or read book The Mathematics Program Improvement Review written by Ron Pelfrey and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2005-12-15 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How good is your school's mathematics program? Test scores can provide some general trend information, but what you--and your students' parents--really need are specifics about the quality of the curriculum, the effectiveness of the instruction, and the school's overall capacity to support mathematics learning. The Mathematics Program Improvement Review (MPIR) is a proven evaluation process focused on standards for high-quality mathematics programs in grades K-12. Based on research into effective program-evaluation methods, the MPIR approach uses multiple data sources to clarify exactly what is working within an individual school's math program and what is not. Author and MPIR developer Ron Pelfrey has used this process to evaluate mathematics programs in more than 300 rural, urban, and suburban schools and has trained hundreds of educators to conduct reviews. Now this handbook makes the MPIR process and its benefits available to everyone. Inside, you'll find guidelines for training review team members and all the materials needed to conduct a review, including * Lists of standards and indicators for the 10 essential components of an effective mathematics program. * Templates for questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations. * Detailed evaluation rubrics. * Forms for compiling ratings and generating a final report. Whether used as a basis for informal faculty or departmental discussion, to promote best practices in a particular area (such as curriculum or instruction), or to guide a formal program evaluation, this book will help any school or district apply MPIR tools and procedures to bring about positive change in students' mathematics learning. Note: This product listing is for the Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version of the book.

Download or read book Student Teacher s Perceptions of the Pre Service Mathematics Programme in a Primary Teachers College in Zimbabwe written by Barnabas Muyengwa and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This case study investigated the perceptions of the third year student teachers of the first year pre-service Mathematics programme at Seke Teachers' College in Zimbabwe. Student background characteristics of gender, age, teaching experience and Mathematics specialisation were the independent variables also investigated. Data was collected from 278 third year students enrolled for the general Diploma in Education course using questionnaires with a five point Likert type 33 item rating scale and open ended items. The data so collected were analysed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The findings indicated that although the programme was able to provide students with a foundation in subject knowledge more could be done to improve on training in teaching methods and provision of resources. From the variables investigated gender was found to have an effect on students' perceptions of the programme but teaching experience was found to have no effect. The possible relationship between the independent variables of age and Mathematics specialisation and the dependent variable of students' perception of the programme was indicated in too few items to warrant a definite conclusion. Implications for the improvement of the programme are that there is need for the college to revisit some aspects of the structure and organisation of the programme. There is also need for further research involving all primary teachers' colleges.
