Book Reading for Evidence and Interpreting Visualizations in Mathematics and Science Education

Download or read book Reading for Evidence and Interpreting Visualizations in Mathematics and Science Education written by Stephen P. Norris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CRYSTAL—Alberta was established to research ways to improve students’ understanding and reasoning in science and mathematics. To accomplish this goal, faculty members in Education, Science, and Engineering, as well as school teachers joined forces to produce a resource bank of innovative and tested instructional materials that are transforming teaching in the K-12 classroom. Many of the instructional materials cross traditional disciplinary boundaries and explore contemporary topics such as global climate change and the spread of the West Nile virus. Combined with an emphasis on the use of visualizations, the instructional materials improve students’ engagement with science and mathematics. Participation in the CRYSTAL—Alberta project has changed the way I think about the connection between what I do as a researcher and what I do as a teacher: I have learned how to better translate scientific knowledge into language and activities appropriate for students, thereby transforming my own teaching. I also have learned to make better connections between what students are learning and what is happening in their lives and the world, thereby increasing students’ interest in the subject and enriching their learning experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twenty papers in the book give an overview of research analysis, practical experience, and informed opinion about the role of visualization in teaching and learning mathematics, especially at the undergraduate level. Visualization, in its broadest level. Visualization, in its broadest sense, is as old as mathematics, but progress in computer graphics has generated a renaissance of interest in visual representations and visual thinking in mathematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses key issues concerning visualization in the teaching and learning of science at any level in educational systems. It is the first book specifically on visualization in science education. The book draws on the insights from cognitive psychology, science, and education, by experts from five countries. It unites these with the practice of science education, particularly the ever-increasing use of computer-managed modelling packages.

Book Humans with Media and the Reorganization of Mathematical Thinking

Download or read book Humans with Media and the Reorganization of Mathematical Thinking written by Marcelo C. Borba and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-07-25 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a new conceptual framework for reflecting on the role of information and communication technology in mathematics education. Discussion focuses on how computers, writing and oral discourse transform education at an epistemological as well as a political level. Building on examples, research and theory, the authors propose that knowledge is not constructed solely by humans, but by collectives of humans and technologies of intelligence.

Book Information Communication Technology in Education

Download or read book Information Communication Technology in Education written by Thiam Seng Koh and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to present a comprehensive review of Singapore''s ICT Masterplans in education, providing a rare behind-the-scenes look at policy planning, as well as the lessons learnt and insights gained from the past decade of the use of ICT in teaching and learning. Since 1997 (when the First Masterplan was launched) to 2008, schools and teachers have made great strides in their use of ICT for education at all levels: primary, secondary and junior college. The seeds of this change were planted in the Pioneer Years (1980OCo1996) which marked the pre-Masterplan period, and they began to germinate in the momentous Foundation Years (1997OCo2002) when the First Masterplan got underway. The subsequent period of the Engaging Years (2003OCo2008) outlines the growth of the Second Masterplan, while the Future Years present the vision of what the future of ICT will look like in Singapore schools in 2009 and beyond.This comprehensive coverage of the evolution of ICT use in Singapore schools includes views and reflections from key individuals involved in the planning and implementation of the two ICT Masterplans, students, teachers, ICT experts, and policy makers. It also includes articles detailing significant projects and programmes of the First and Second ICT Masterplans.

Book COVID 19 Learning Losses

Download or read book COVID 19 Learning Losses written by UNESCO and published by UNESCO Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-08 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of the pandemic, efforts have been made to monitor both school closures (and re-opening) and the measures put in place to ensure continuity of learning. These include the Survey of Ministries of Education on National Responses to COVID-19, jointly supported by UNESCO, UNICEF and the World Bank. However, to date, no systematic evidence has been available on how students' learning is being affected by the disruptions caused by the pandemic or on the impact of education response measures initiated by governments. This report contributes to filling this evidence gap and includes a series of simulations of potential learning losses due to COVID-19 and exploration of their longer-term implications. The analysis is based on the Enabling learning for all framework, which outlines access, engagement and enabling environment as the three crucial enablers for learning, while the simulation assumptions are informed by the evidence on school closures and governments' education-related responses, collected through the joint survey.

Book Reading and Writing the World with Mathematics

Download or read book Reading and Writing the World with Mathematics written by Eric Gutstein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-09-10 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematics education in the United States can reproduce social inequalities whether schools use either "basic-skills" curricula to prepare mainly low-income students of color for low-skilled service jobs or "standards-based" curricula to ready students for knowledge-intensive positions. And working for fundamental social change and rectifying injustice are rarely included in any mathematics curriculum. Reading and Writing the World with Mathematics argues that mathematics education should prepare students to investigate and critique injustice, and to challenge, in words and actions, oppressive structures and acts. Based on teacher-research, the book provides a theoretical framework and practical examples for how mathematics educators can connect schooling to a larger sociopolitical context and concretely teach mathematics for social justice.
