Download or read book A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO USING LEARNING STYLES IN MATH INSTRUCTION written by Ruby Bostick Midkiff and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although much attention has been given to the use of learning styles in the general curriculum and in teaching students to read., the use of learning styles-based instruction in the mathematics classroom has received limited attention. Therefore, the purpose of this book is to address the improvement of mathematics instruction through the use of learning styles-based instruction. Its goals are to give the reader an understanding of learning styles-based instruction in mathematics, of effective use of manipulatives in teaching various concepts at all grade levels, of ways to develop spatial reasoning skills in students, of different activities which accommodate a variety of learning styles, and of authentic assessment in mathematics. The book presents the use of learning styles-based instruction as a powerful strategy which teachers can and should use with the result that teaching will be more effective, less remediation will be necessary, and the overall mathematics curriculum will be enhanced.
