Download or read book Teaching Mathematics as Storytelling written by Rina Zazkis and published by Brill / Sense. This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents storytelling in mathematics as a medium for creating a classroom in which mathematics is appreciated, understood, and enjoyed. The authors demonstrate how students' mathematical activity can be engaged via storytelling. Readers are introduced to many mathematical stories of different kinds, such as stories that provide a frame or a background to mathematical problems, stories that deeply intertwine with the content, and stories that explain concepts or ideas. Moreover, the authors present a framework for creating new stories, ideas for using and enriching existing stories, as well as several techniques for storytelling that make telling more interactive and more appealing to the learner. This book is of interest for those who teach mathematics, or teach teachers to teach mathematics. It may be of interest to those who like stories or like mathematics, or those who dislike either mathematics or stories, but are ready to reconsider their position.

Merritt and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classroom observational measures can provide information about high quality student-teacher interactions, allowing researchers to consider the impacts of these practices on student outcomes. Such measures can take a "process-oriented approach" that considers the nature of interactions between teachers and students, such as the sensitivity of teachers' interactions with students, teachers' effective management of the classroom, and the depth of instruction and quality of feedback given to students--all processes that have been linked to achievement gains (Pianta, Belsky, Houts & Morrison, 2007; Pianta & Hamre, 2009; Ponitz, Rimm-Kaufman, Brock & Nathanson, 2009). Alternatively, observational measures can take a "domain-specific approach" that considers teachers' practices that support information processing in specific subject-areas, such as mathematical problem solving. Seidel and Shavelson conducted a recent meta-analysis that examined the effects of teaching on student learning, considering both domain-specific and process-oriented approaches to teaching in K-12 classrooms. They found that domain-specific processes had larger effects (d = 0.41) on cognitive outcomes in elementary classrooms than all other factors (Seidel & Shavelson, 2007). The present study combines process-oriented and domain specific approaches, using a newly developed measure: the Mathematics Scan (M-Scan) Measure of Mathematics Instructional Quality (Berry, Rimm-Kaufman, Ottmar, Walkowiak & Merritt, 2011). Three primary research questions guided the authors' analyses: (1) What is the contribution of mathematics instructional quality to achievement for low-income students? The authors hypothesized that mathematics instructional quality is a strong predictor of mathematics instructional quality for low-income students, even after controlling for prior achievement, class-size, peer ability level, teachers' experience, and teachers' content knowledge, (2) What is the relative contribution of classroom ability level beyond classroom quality and class size in predicting achievement for low-income third grade students? The authors hypothesized that classroom ability level would contribute to achievement above and beyond mathematical instructional quality and other classroom factors, and (3) Does class size make a difference above and beyond instructional quality and classroom ability level in predicting achievement for low-income third grade students? Their hypothesis was that class size was significantly related to achievement above and beyond mathematics instructional quality and classroom ability level. This research reports the following findings: (1) The authors found that mathematical instructional quality was significantly related to third grade achievement for students from low-income families. For every one point higher a teacher scored on the M-Scan, students scored approximately 12 points higher on a third grade achievement test. Mathematical instructional quality explains 8% of the classroom level variance and 0.4% of the total variance in student achievement after controlling for student prior achievement, teachers' content knowledge, class size, classroom ability level, and teachers' experience level; (2) Results showed the classroom ability level was not a significant predictor of student achievement with all of the other variables in the model. This suggests that when students are offered the same level of instructional quality, teacher content knowledge, teacher experience, and have similar class sizes, the ability level of peers is not significant; and (3) Class size was a significant predictor of achievement for students from low-income families. For every 3 fewer students in a classroom, students scored 11 points higher on the third grade achievement test. Class size explained 28% of the classroom level variance and 3% of the total variance in achievement above and beyond the other variables in the model. Findings suggest the importance of mathematics instructional quality and smaller class size among students from families with low income. Interventions that support teacher improvement in standards-based mathematics may hold promise in efforts to reduce the achievement gap. Appended are: (1) References, and (2) Tables and figures.

Download or read book Establishing Growth Mindset Teaching Practices as Part of the Third Grade Math Curriculum to Increase Math Self efficacy Math Mindset and Student Achievement written by Rebecca Ann Castiglione and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mixed methods action research dissertation examines the effects of implementing growth mindset teaching practices in third grade math as a means to improve student math self-efficacy, math mindset and student achievement. Since the transition to the Pennsylvania Core Standards, students across the state including those in this district have been experiencing a decrease in math achievement in grades three through eight according to the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA) the standardized achievement test all public school students take. Locally, traditional interventions such as worksheets, boxed programs, computer-based programs and extra practice have not yielded gains so this intervention focused on developing growth mindset teaching practices in math to answer four research questions. Framed in Dweck's Implicit Theories of Personal Attributes (1995), Bandura's description of self-efficacy (1997) and Hall and Hords' work with teachers in bridging research into practice (2011), this study used Jo Boaler's, Mathematical Mindset (2015) in a book study with the third-grade teachers. The dissertation study analyzed pre and post survey data from the third-grade class (n=57) on both mindset and self-efficacy. The study also analyzed pre and post survey data from the teachers (n=2) on mindset along with pre and post intervention interviews with the teachers. Qualitative and quantitative data analysis revealed the intervention had a positive effect on teacher mindsets and practices, a positive effect on student mindsets and a positive effect on student math self-efficacy. While the study did not reveal the intervention to have a positive impact on student achievement at this time, previous research included in the literature review cites improvement in student achievement through developing growth mindset thinking. This gives reason to predict that with more time, these students will experience improved achievement in math. Implications from this study include that we should train all math teachers in incorporating growth mindset practices, and that administrators should build the bridge between research and practice for teachers as they implement new teaching practices in effort to positively affect student performance.
