Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study compared the mathematics achievement of second through fifth grade students using Math Investigations (2008), which promotes the use of inquiry activities, with the mathematics achievement of such students using the Houghton Mifflin (2002) curriculum. This study also examined the opinions of teachers of these students as to their feelings of competence and confidence in using the Math Investigations curriculum. Results indicated that the Math Investigations curriculum may have an impact on the math achievement of elementary school students.

Book excerpt: Connect inquiry to improved teaching and learning across your district! Now that federal and state initiatives require school districts to provide job-embedded professional development, the next step is making it happen. This book helps districts define, develop, and implement a systematic inquiry-based process with a laser-like focus on both adult and student learning. This book′s inquiry model challenges educators and students to: Define questions they are passionate about exploring Collect and analyze data to inform their questions Share what they have learned through the process with others Collaborate to build on their results and improve student achievement The authors′ award-winning school improvement program, featured in the text, offers a fresh look at how to improve the quality of teaching and learning across a district. Administrators, teachers, and students will find an invaluable road map for tackling real-world challenges and taking control of their own learning.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article reviews the effects of hands-on, inquiry based learning on the mathematics achievement of English language learners (ELLs). There were eighteen third grade participants of Mexican descent in this study. Their English language proficiency ability ranged from a level two to six. The study began with data collection from three weeks of regular instruction before doing three weeks of hands-on, inquiry based mathematics instruction. Both data periods began and ended with a pretest and posttest assessment to determine the achievement, measured by points of growth, during that specific type of instruction. The researcher found inquiry-based instruction did not improve mathematics achievement of ELLs; however, it would be of interest to study the impact of inquiry-based instruction in the regular education classroom over an extended period of time.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine fifth graders' attitudes toward mathematics and achievements in mathematics when taught in real-world situations in the outdoor setting of a national refuge. Does authentic math instruction in an outdoor environment affect students' attitudes toward math when compared to students in a traditional classroom setting? Does authentic math instruction in an outdoor environment affect students' math achievement when compared to students in a traditional classroom setting? Fifth grade students who did not participate in the program at the national refuge setting but instead were taught in a traditional classroom setting acted as the control group. The researcher reviewed achievement data and gave pre- and post-surveys on attitudes toward math to measure academic achievement and gain student's perspectives on attitudes toward math, confidence in math, usefulness of math, and usefulness of math in the outdoors. Academically, math achievement scores grew at a similar rate for both the treatment group and the control group. More questions had significant differences of the mean from the treatment group's attitude surveys than from the control group's attitude surveys. The findings from this study suggest continuing to integrate instruction in this outdoor setting to improve attitudes toward math. A recommendation is made to do a follow up survey when these same students are more developmentally mature to understand the possible longitudinal effects of the program.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quasi-experimental non-equivalent control group study was to test theories of constructivism and motivation, along with research-based teaching practices of differentiating instruction and instructing within a child's Zone of Proximal Development, in measuring the effect of computer-aided instruction on fifth grade students' attitude and achievement in math. Students in Pennsylvania completed an attitude survey at the beginning, middle, and end of the study (Pierce, Stacey & Barkatsas, 2007). Achievement was measured by the 4Sight Math assessment (Pennsylvania State Education Association, 2007) which was given at the beginning of the study, after the first seven weeks of instruction, and then at the end of the study. Five fifth grade teachers were randomly assigned as treatment or control, indicating which instructional strategy they would implement. Treatment groups received traditional direct instruction and guided practice, and then computer-aided instruction as a supplemental math practice session. Control groups participated in traditional instruction and guided practice, which incorporated Interactive Whiteboards, with only traditional methods used for supplemental practice. Data from the attitude survey were used to indicate changes that students showed after using the computer for practice as compared to using traditional methods of practice. Data from the 4Sight Math assessments were used to determine any changes in achievement after each method was implemented. Results determined that computer-aided instruction did not have a significant effect on student achievement, but did positively impact the attitude of low-achievers.

Download or read book School Science Practical Work in Africa written by Umesh Ramnarain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: School Science Practical Work in Africa presents the scope of research and practice of science practical work in African schools. It brings together prominent science educators and researchers from Africa to share their experience and findings on pedagogical innovations and research-informed practices on school science practical work. The book highlights trends and patterns in the enactment and role of practical work across African countries. Practical work is regarded as intrinsic to science teaching and learning and the form of practical work that is strongly advocated is inquiry-based learning, which signals a definite paradigm shift from the traditional teacher-dominated to a learner-centered approach. The book provides empirical research on approaches to practical work, contextual factors in the enactment of practical work, and professional development in teaching practical work. This book will be of great interest to academics, researchers and post-graduate students in the fields of science education and educational policy.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A digital native is an individual born between 1981 and 2001, and children born after 2001 are called millennials. Educators are expected to meet the needs of today's technologically savvy students. Some researchers assert that an academic `moral panic' is taking place that lacks the empirical and theoretical knowledge to support the claims that education needs to change to meet the needs of digital natives and millennials. The problem is that considering that the majority of students today are digital natives are educators meeting the learning needs of their students. This research study focused on the use of instructional technology and how it effects student achievement for fifth grade science and math instruction. Using the 2010 and 2011 math and science CRCT test scores, the SPSS statistical software was employed to run an independent sample t test to measure the mean difference between the experimental and control groups. The results found that the use of technological instruction in this instance did not increase student academic achievement.
