Book The Effects of Using Writing on a Student Learning in a Seventh Grade Math Classroom

Download or read book The Effects of Using Writing on a Student Learning in a Seventh Grade Math Classroom written by Amy L. Davis and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my mathematics teaching experiences, I have found students encountering difficulties in successfully remembering and demonstrating all of the major concepts they have learned during the school year. Whether or not the students actually learn and remember the content is a problem numerous teachers experience. As a result, I decided to implement writing into a lower-level seventh grade math classroom to determine if writing would affect student learning. The study was implemented with sixteen lower-level seventh grade math students during the first ten weeks of the 2008-2009 school year at Northwest Junior High in the Iowa City Community School District. Pre-surveys and post-surveys were given to students to determine their attitudes toward mathematics and writing. A pretest and posttest was also administered to assess the effects writing ad on students' growth and achievement over the en week study. Students used their writing skills to explain their reasoning behind their answers. Students also wrote in a journal an average of two times per week. Results from the study showed a minimal increase in the number of students having a positive attitude towards math along with a minimal increase in student achievement. These results may be due to implementation of writing in the mathematics curriculum.

Book Impact of Concept based Mathematics Instructional Strategies on Seventh Grade Student Achievement

Download or read book Impact of Concept based Mathematics Instructional Strategies on Seventh Grade Student Achievement written by Katherine Annette Lawley Ellsworth and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a nation with declining enrollment in college math courses, it is important to examine how mathematics is being taught in the K-12 education system and to identify best practices. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact concept-based instructional strategies has on middle school student achievement in mathematics when integrated into the traditional mathematics curriculum. Participants included 424 seventh grade students from two middle schools. Students Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Fall-to-Winter data 2018 prior to implementation was used a covariate and Fall-to-Winter data 2019 data during the implementation of concept-based instructional strategies integrated into the traditional math curriculum was used for the dependent variable. Student achievement was analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and determine that there was a significant difference in math achievement when instruction is provided to student by teachers who have received professional development on concept-based instructional strategies. These findings have implications on teacher preparation, daily curricular instruction, and competitiveness for students in the global economy. Future research is suggested to determine impacts of concept-based instruction on students functioning above and below grade level, as well as teacher efficacy on implementing concept-based instruction for middle grades.

Book The Effects of a Seventh Grade Mathematics Remediation Course on Student Achievement

Download or read book The Effects of a Seventh Grade Mathematics Remediation Course on Student Achievement written by Jason Nix and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the installment of the No Child Left Behind Act, schools have sought strategies to help students meet these academic requirements. Many middle schools have turned to math remediation classes as a way to improve students' achievement scores. The purpose of this quantitative causal-comparative study was to explore the relationship of the mathematics remediation class as an intervention strategy to help low performing seventh grade students' achievement on the Georgia Criterion-Referenced Competency Test. The sample consisted of N= 775 (391 male, 384 female) seventh grade students enrolled in one rural middle school. The result of the statistical test, ANCOVA, revealed a significant difference between the non-remediation students and remediation students on post-test mathematics achievement while adjusting for the pre-test scores, therefore the hypothesis was rejected. In addition, this study examined the gender and socio-economical differences within the math remediation students. Gender was found not to be statically significant, while socio-economical differences were found to be statically significant.

Book A Case Study of Delaying School Entry on the Effects of Student Achievement in Mathematics in Seventh Grade

Download or read book A Case Study of Delaying School Entry on the Effects of Student Achievement in Mathematics in Seventh Grade written by Tracy A. McDaniel and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept known as "red-shirting" in sports to provide an athletic advantage by delaying a child's entry into sports is also prevalent among parents who perceive an academic advantage for delaying their children's school entry. Interest exits among parents, teachers, administrators and medical professionals regarding the potential academic benefits and drawbacks of delaying kindergarten entrance for one additional year, even if students meet the state entrance requirement. The parents who wait to send their children to kindergarten normally cite one or two reasons for keeping their child back a year - either the child's birthday occurs late in the year (July through December), making him or her younger than peers, or the child has exhibited less mature behavior (academic or social) than others of the equivalent age (Frey, 2005). This study examined if it is academically advantageous for students to be older than their peers in the seventh grade and if that advantage changes with a student's gender or parents' socioeconomic status. The study used the April 2011 Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) mathematics vertical scale scores as they relate to students' chronological ages of approximately 1,300 students in seven middle schools in a northwest district of Houston, Texas. The students were broken into six cohort groups based on the date of their birth and the state of Texas's public school enrollment of September first. Archival data was gathered from the TAKS data files to conduct a descriptive statistics study and ANOVA tests to answer the following research questions: Is it academically advantageous to be older than your peers in the grade 7 cohort as indicated by the mathematics achievement scores in the state of Texas's TAKS tests? The results of this study displayed students with delayed entry perform similar to retained students than the traditional cohort or accelerated students. Does an advantage in chronological age at grade 7 differ in males and females? The study found gender does play a role in how the student will perform later in life. Delayed entry males tend to perform similarly to males in the traditional cohort, whereas females perform similarly to retained female students. Are there differences by socioeconomic status in relation to chronological age? The study found that delayed entry students on a free lunch plan perform similarly to students who have been retained. Through this study the researcher will add to the body of knowledge that exists regarding how a student's chronological age affects their achievement in mathematics. Frey, N. (2005).

Book The Effects of Student led Conferences on Seventh Grade Math and Science Achievement

Download or read book The Effects of Student led Conferences on Seventh Grade Math and Science Achievement written by Shantell Alisha Cook and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of student-led conferences on math and science achievement for seventh grade students. An ANCOVA and phenomenological methods were used to explore the relationship between the following variables: student-led conferences, gender and usage of student-led conferences, and student and parent perceptions of student-led conferences. Findings of this study revealed student-led conferences do not effect seventh-grade math achievement; however, there was a statistically significant effect on seventh-grade science achievement. Additionally, students revealed they were prepared for their conference and parents believed this conference would better assist them with their child's learning.
