Teaching in the Standards-based Classroom
Virtually every national standards document, every state framework, and every local set of standards calls for fundamental changes in what and how teachers teach. The challenge for teachers is to implement the vision for mathematics and science classrooms called for in the standards. This issue describes that vision and suggests ways to use the standards mandated in your school to improve your practice--to help you teach in your standards-based classroom.
Bold Ventures
This book presents comprehensive results from case studies of three innovations in mathematics education that have much to offer toward understanding current reforms in this field. Each chapter tells the story of a case in rich detail, with extensi ve documentation, and in the voices of many of the participants-the innovators, the teachers, the students. Similarly, Volume 2 of Bold Ventures pre sents the results from case studies of five innovations in science education. Volume 1 provides a cross-case analysis of all eight innovations. Many U.S. readers certainly will be very familiar with the name of at least if not all of the mathematics innovations discussed in this volume-for one example, the NCTM Standards-and probably with their general substance. Much of the education community's familiarity with these" arises from the pro jects' own dissemination efforts. The research reported in this volume, however, is one of the few detailed studies of these innovations undertaken by researchers outside the projects themselves.
Aids to Media Selection for Students and Teachers
Abstract: Up-to-date, available bibliographies, and journals which review books, periodicals, and audiovisual materials relevant to elementary and secondary school instructional programs are presented. The listing is restricted to reviewing tools published since 1976, except for several standard titles which have not been revised or replaced; on specific topic areas e.g., multiethnic materials. Media sources are presented in 4 principal sections: book selection sources; periodicals; audiovisual materials; and multiethnic materials. A directory of publisher's addresses and an author-title index are included. (wz).
