This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovative Teaching: Best Practices from Business and Beyond for Mathematics Teachers provides educators with new and exciting ways to introduce material and methods to motivate and engage students by showing how some of the techniques commonly used in the business world — and beyond — are applicable to the world of education. It also offers educators practical advice with regard to the changing culture of education, keeping up with technology, navigating politics at work, interacting with colleagues, developing leadership skills, group behavior, and gender differences.Innovative Teaching demonstrates how the classroom environment is similar to the marketplace. Educators, like businesses, for example, must capture and hold the attention of their audience while competing with a constant stream of 'noise.' With the introduction of the Internet and the wide use of social media, promoters understand that they must not only engage their audience, but also incorporate audience feedback into the promotional work and product or service they offer. Innovative Teaching shows educators how to take the best practices from business — and beyond — and recombine these resources for appropriate use in the classroom.

Book excerpt: FUN WAYS FOR KIDS TO LEARN MATH is one in a series of books on different education topics intended to help you make the most of your child's natural curiosity. Parents already do many things with their kids that can encourage mathematical thinking and help them see the relevance of mathematics in their everyday lives.Kids are turned off when they don't see a purpose for what they're learning, so it's important to constantly show them how math is useful in real life. Involve them in activities like cooking and baking (remember our little Canadian kids need to use metric measurement), telling time, checking temperature and using money. Little ones can sort coins, older ones can help estimate the grocery bill while shopping.By doing things together, you will show that learning is fun and important. You will be encouraging your child to study, learn, and stay in school. We know from research that children are more likely to be successful learners of any subject when parents actively support their learning Fathers, like mothers, play a very important role in young children's lives. Children do better educationally, psychologically and socially when fathers are actively involved.For parents, it should come as no surprise that there is a long list of benefits that come from taking an active role in your child's education. In fact, one of the biggest influences on a child's success stems from how invested the parents are in his or her education. Getting involved in your child's education can take many forms, whether it's setting measurable, achievable academic goals together, engaging in regular and open communication with his or her teachers, or simply reading together for a half hour every evening.No matter what approach you choose, the important thing is to take an active, ongoing interest in your child's learning Math.
