Becoming a Reflective Mathematics Teacher
Artzt, Armour-Thomas and Curcio supply detailed observation instruments that preservice teachers can use when observing other teachers. They also offer reflective activities that provide a structure through which beginning teachers can think about their teaching in an insightful, thorough and productive manner.
Developing Data-graph Comprehension in Grades K-8
30 Classroom-ready activities that emphasise exploration, investigation, reasoning and communication in mathematics. Since the dawn of civilisation, pictorial representations and symbols have been used to communicate simple statistics. Efficient and effective, they are still used today in the form of pictures and graphs to record and present data. Who can tie their shoes? How many calories are in your favourite food? Make data and graphs relevant and interesting to students with the help of Developing Data-Graph Comprehension. This book offers teachers and teacher educators practical ideas for incorporating graph reading and quantitative literacy into instructional programmes. Activities include objectives, vocabulary, materials, questions for discussion and ideas for summarising that are meant to guide students in data collection, representation and interpretation. Help your students learn to process information from the Internet, television, newspapers and magazines by giving them the ability to comprehend and interpret graphs and show them that “A picture is worth ten thousand words.”
The Assessment Challenge in Statistics Education
This book discusses conceptual and pragmatic issues in the assessment of statistical knowledge and reasoning skills among students at the college and precollege levels, and the use of assessments to improve instruction. It is designed primarily for academic audiences involved in teaching statistics and mathematics, and in teacher education and training. The book is divided in four sections: (I) Assessment goals and frameworks, (2) Assessing conceptual understanding of statistical ideas, (3) Innovative models for classroom assessments, and (4) Assessing understanding of probability.
The AMTE Handbook of Mathematics Teacher Education
This new volume of The Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators (AMTE) Professional Book Series is a critical and timely resource that paves the way and guides the future of mathematics teacher education. The collection of work in this AMTE Handbook of Mathematics Teacher Education reflects on research and what we know about how best to prepare and support both mathematics teachers and mathematics teacher educators and presents what is happening in the field. Examples included in the 22 chapters highlight how we are preparing teachers across multiple contexts (e.g., within district, in content courses for the major) and grade ranges (K-20+) and all chapters highlight relevant connections...
Teaching and Learning High School Mathematics
Too many high school students, faced with mathematics in courses at the level of algebra and beyond, find themselves struggling with abstract concepts and unwilling to pursue further study of mathematics. When students curtail their course taking in mathematics, they may be impacting their college and career options. Thus, high school mathematics teachers have the responsibility to help students recognize the value and importance of mathematics while also designing instruction that makes mathematics accessible to all students. Ball and Bass (2000), as well as other mathematics educators, have recognized that mathematics teachers not only need to know mathematics content and mathematics pedag...
