Reading in the Mathematics Classroom
The concept that it is important for students to learn how to read the language of mathematics is promoted. Most mathematics teachers neither have the knowledge nor feel the responsibility to develop reading skills in their students. The materials in this document are viewed to be of sufficient variety and potential for making important improvements in mathematics classrooms. The teaching ideas are based on the well-accepted notion that learning results from interest in a subject. Providing that interest, through readiness, is considered the key. Individual chapter titles are: (1) The Reading Phase of Mathematics; (2) The Instructional Framework; (3) The Structured Overview; (4) The Development of Mathematics Vocabulary; (5) The Dilemma of Word Problems; (6) The Readability of Mathematics Materials; and (7) Concluding Remarks. Additional Mathematics/Reading Resources - Teacher Focus; Recreational/Supplementary Resources - Student Focus; and References are found at the conclusion of the document. (MP)
Violence and Society: Breakthroughs in Research and Practice
Violent behavior is an unavoidable aspect of human nature, and as such it has become deeply integrated into modern society. Examining violence through a critical and academic perspective can lead to a better understanding of its foundations and implications. Violence and Society: Breakthroughs in Research and Practice explores the social and cultural influences of violence on human life and activity. Focusing on emerging research perspectives, case studies, and future outlooks, this comprehensive collection is an essential reference source for graduate-level students, sociologists, researchers, professionals, and practitioners interested in the effects of violence in contemporary culture.
Teaching Reading Skills Through the Newspaper
Recognizing that newspapers are among the best supplementary instructional materials, this booklet offers suggestions for the use of newspapers for teaching or reinforcing specific reading skills. The booklet focuses on inferential and evaluative comprehension skills, and the suggestions range from how to teach students to identify main ideas and details to the development of higher order critical reading competencies. Though its major emphasis is on comprehension, the booklet devotes some attention to the reinforcement of decoding skills through the use of newspapers. Following an introduction, the first two chapters provide a rationale for using the newspaper as an instructional resource, and using it to teach reading. The remaining chapters provide suggestions in the following areas: (1) teaching a reading lesson with the newspaper, (2) developing critical readers, (3) developing vocabulary and word identification skills, (4) developing appropriate reading rates, and (5) reading and the language arts. A list of suggested books, materials, and periodicals is appended. (HTH)
