Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Methods in Arithmetic The present volume deals with somewhat the Same material, but from the point of View of the working teacher or student in a normal school seeking direct help in understanding the newer methods and using them under ordinary conditions Of classroom instruction. NO knowledge Of psychology is assumed as a requirement for profitable study Of this book. Discus sions Of the general psychological basis of the new methods and Of the evidence in their favor are here omitted or much Simplified. The treatment is constructive throughout. The practical consequences are treated more specifically and with abundant detailed illustration and application. In order to aid the teacher still further in putting the new principles Of teaching into active Operation, each chapter is accompanied by exercises, which are even more detailed and concrete in nature than the text. The choice Of textbook material for illustrations of current practice in the text and for various uses in the exercises requires a word Of explanation. As a matter Of scientific care and of convenience to the student almost all of this material is taken from the same textbook. Scientifically this is almost necessary; for a procedure that is correct in one total teaching plan might be weak or even wrong in a different total teaching plan. Each detail of method ought to be judged with reference to its setting. All the details presented here are parts Of one same teaching plan or textbook - all belong in the same setting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Method Arithmetic The New method arithmetic is what its name implies a new method of presenting the subject of practical arithmetic. The authors have not been, inspired by any desire to add one more to the already large number of practical arithmetics that are on the market, but, rather, to turn out a book that will present the subject in a way that must commend itself to every teacher and student. We think it will be conceded that in any branch of education the main idea should be to impress principles, and to so arrange details that the principles are not lost sight of in a confusing mass of detail. Who has not met the boy in school who felt that he was strong on profit and loss, but to whom commission and brokerage was always a difficulty. Is this a fault in the boy or in the system under which he has been instructed We think that the system must shoulder the blame. There is no difference, in a proper arrangement of the study of arithmetic, between profit and loss and commission and brokerage. When we set up these two applica tions of percentage as separate departments of the work, we are simply transgressing a first principle in properly presenting the subject. The detail of profit and loss and commission and broker age is made to overshadow the principle of percentage, of which such work is a mere application.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Special Method in Arithmetic IT is our purpose in this volume to make plain to teachers in elementary schools the purpose of teach ing arithmetic, to outline fully a course of study based upon this controlling idea, and to discuss and illustrate the method of handling some of the chief topics. It is strictly a teacher's book, and not designed for use by children. It has been generally felt that arithmetic stands aloof from other studies, but the attempt is made here to show a very intimate and important relation to the other studies, one vital in fact to the proper plan and treatment of the whole subject. This volume is one in a series of special methods, as follows: Reading of English Classics, Primary Reading and Story Work, Geography, History, Ele mentary Science, Language, and Manual Arts. The course of study for the eight grades based on the plans worked out in these eight volumes is now in press and will appear in two volumes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods in Written Arithmetic It has long been the conviction of the writer of the following pages that the subject of arithmetic, as it is too often studied, yields a smaller return for the time devoted to it, than any other branch included in the curriculum of our common schools. Pupils begin the study of numbers at the threshold of their school life and continue it for from six to ten years; yet a large proportion of them have but little appreciation of the principles of the science, and their work is, consequently, almost entirely mechanical.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Methods in Arithmetic The ability to perform the fundamental operations is best secured by abundant practice in working a great many examples containing small numbers, combined with the necessary drill in the tables. All time spent in the endeavor to learn the reasons underlying the processes is wasted, as is the time devoted to the memorizing of definitions, rules, and the like. There should be a definite reason for the introduction of each form of weighing, measuring, paper folding, etc. The.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles and Methods of Teaching Arithmetic Successful teaching of arithmetic is impossible unless the teacher and supervisor have a correct and clearly formulated. Conception of the ends they are trying to realize through their teaching of the subject. This truth is so self-evident as to be axiomatic, but in spite of this fact many teachers of the subject have only a vague idea of what they are trying to do. Perhaps the majority of teachers have no object in View except to so teach that their pupils will be able to work the problems in the text' from day to day and to pass examinations. Indefinite and mistaken ideas of the purpose of the work in arithmetic are responsible for more poor teaching of the subject than any other one thing.

Download or read book Arithmetic written by W. H. Baker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Arithmetic: Methods and Reviews This manual has been written especially to meet the needs of normal students. Incidentally it may be found useful to other students and teachers. Besides methods, it presents reviews of subject matter. While the teacher who has not had methods is greatly handicapped, the theory of teaching is of little value to one who has not mastered the thing to be taught. The letters of Mrs. Hornbrook are specifically for the student teachers of the Training School. The first sets forth the general scheme of her work and gives a number of illustrative exercises and games. The second gives a gen eral outline of the course, which will be fully amplified in the supervisor's meetings from week to week. The chapter on drills gives suggestive exercises intended to help the busy teacher and to keep the pupil occupied in what will interest him and cause him to know. The chapter on course gives a skeleton outline for work beginning with the fifth year. It is tentative, suggesting an order of sequence. A large percentage of normal students have had no arithmetic since leav ing the grammar grades, hence their knowledge of the subject is quite limited and their work more or less mechanical. They need a firmer grasp of the subject matter and the feeling of security which comes with conscious mastery. The chapter on reviews is designed to supply these needs. The arrangement is strictly topical. While there are many simple exercises and problems the work is in general too difficult for grammar grade pupils. The teacher, how ever, should know more than she is expected to teach. The many model solu tions are intended to furnish good forms, which is important, and incidentally to illustrate the best ways of doing the work.

Download or read book New Method in Multiplication and Division Classic Reprint written by William Timothy Call and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Timothy Call was a mathematician and an individual interested in using mathematics to improve daily life. In A New Method in Multiplication and Division, Call presents a method he personally devised to solve multiplication and division problems. In his introduction the author acknowledges that the method presented in this book is of no great significance, rather it is a curious way of attacking a problem that likely differs from what the reader has been taught. It is clear from the beginning that this is a book aimed at those with a keen interest in math. The book opens with Call's method for solving simple multiplication problems, before progressing to his method for problems of division. A New Method in Multiplication and Division is a brief work and one that will appeal to those for whom mathematics is a hobby. The subject matter is largely trivial, and while the methods detailed are effective, they are presented largely as a novelty. Those who are passionate about mathematics will likely enjoy the casual approach of the author and the general tone of the book. For readers passionate about mathematics and problem solving, William Timothy Call's A New Method in Multiplication and Division is recommended. This is not a textbook or a resource guide, but rather a lighthearted presentation of a simple but alternative mathematical approach, intended to entertain and inform the reader.

Download or read book Hopkins and Underwood s written by John W. Hopkins and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hopkins and Underwood's: New Arithmetics; Advanced Book This book assumes that the pupils using it have a working knowledge of the four fundamental principles of arithmetic as applied to integers and to United States money. It presents the essentials of practical arithmetic, arranged by topics in conformity with the courses of study in some of the best school systems, each chapter representing a year's work, commencing with the fifth grade. Its distinguishing features are the early introduction of decimals, the large number of problems based on the industries of our country, the clearness of illustration, and the omission of complicated problems of doubtful utility. It aims to teach principles rather than rules. As the unitary method is the simplest for the young learner, the first two chapters give prominence to it. The chief aim of teaching arithmetic is doubtless to develop accuracy and rapidity in the solution of problems arising in actual life and also to cultivate correct methods of reasoning. Both these aims are kept in view through out the book. However, as students learn readily to follow processes, and, as the practice of arithmetic is of more importance to most people than its theory, especial attention is paid to the art of computation.
