Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teaching Secondary and Middle School Mathematics combines the latest developments in research, standards, and technology with a vibrant writing style to help teachers prepare for the excitement and challenges of teaching secondary and middle school mathematics today. In the fully revised fifth edition, scholar and mathematics educator Daniel Brahier invites teachers to investigate the nature of the mathematics curriculum and reflect on research-based "best practices" as they define and sharpen their own personal teaching styles. The fifth edition has been updated and expanded with a particular emphasis on the continued impact of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and NCTM’s just-released Principles to Actions, as well as increased attention to teaching with technology, classroom management, and differentiated instruction. Features include: A full new Chapter 7 on selection and use of specific tools and technology combined with "Spotlight on Technology" features throughout clearly illustrate the practical aspects of how technology can be used for teaching or professional development. Foundational Chapters 1 and 2 on the practices and principles of mathematics education have been revised to build directly on Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and Principles to Actions, with additional references to both documents throughout all chapters. A new Chapter 4 focuses on the use of standards in writing objectives and organizing lesson plan resources while an updated Chapter 5 details each step of the lesson planning process. A fully revised Chapter 12 provides new information on teaching diverse populations and outlines specific details and suggestions for classroom management for mathematics teachers. Classroom Dialogues" features draws on the author’s 35-year experience as an educator to present real-world teacher-student conversations about specific mathematical problems or ideas "How Would You React?" features prepares future teachers for real-life scenarios by engaging them in common classroom situations and offering tried-and-true solutions. With more than 60 practical, classroom-tested teaching ideas, sample lesson and activities, Teaching Secondary and Middle School Mathematics combines the best of theory and practice to provide clear descriptions of what it takes to be an effective teacher of mathematics.

Download or read book Strategies Principals in New York City Public High needs Middle Schools Use to Increase Student Achievement in Mathematics written by Patricia Angelique King and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student achievement has been a focal point of concern for decades. American students continue to fall behind their counterparts mathematically in developing countries. The U.S. Department of Education (2009) warned that the current state of math performance “shortchanges our students’ future and endangers our nation's prosperity and security” (p. 26).Test results from the 2016 New York State Education Department (NYSED), for example, reported that 889,296 students took the Common Core Math State Exam last spring. The New York City (NYC) students who met the math proficiency level by ethnic subgroups were: Asian/Pacific Islander (67.2%), White (56.7 %), American Indian/Alaska Native (32.2%), Hispanic (24.3%), and Black (20%). These disproportionate scores reflect an objective picture of the persistent mathematics achievement gap in America. The low statistics about student achievement are not a new phenomenon, as year after year, the academic performance metrics consistently show thousands of middle school students who are underperforming on the state mathematics exams. The statistics consistently highlight that most students who fail to meet the expected academic standards are African American, Latino and are from a low socioeconomic background (NYSED 2016). There have been numerous legislative reforms such as No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), and Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) enacted to try and close the achievement gap. According to Williams, Kirst, and Haertel (2010), the gap in middle school for mathematics gets wider, and this is concerning because middle school math is an indicator for success in high school, college, and beyond. Principals and their school communities search for instructional practices they can implement to increase student achievement with middle school math. This research study, Strategies Principals in New York City Public High-Needs Middle Schools Use to Increase Student Achievement in Mathematics, can be used to guide the work of improving student outcome in math. The research design for this study was quantitative and the instrument used was an electronic survey, that was emailed to middle school principals. There were 45 questions, the first 11 pertained to questions about the demographics of the principals; the other 34 questions were about math strategies principals should use to impact student achievement in mathematics. The sample size was 100 middle school principals, 73 of them responded. The data collected from the responses were analyzed using the statistical analysis software SPSS version 24. The findings of this study showed that the following practices when implemented by the principal had a significant association with student achievement: The principal hiring of effective Math Lead Teachers, students grappling with assignments that are common- core aligned and on the level of the state exams and teachers writing responsive lesson plans to address students’ misconceptions.
