312 Things To Do with a Math Journal by Denise Gaskins Pdf

Are you looking for new ways to help your children learn math? In a math journal, children explore their own ideas about numbers, shapes, and patterns through drawing or writing in response to a question. Journaling encourages students to develop a rich mathematical mindset. They begin to see connections and make sense of math concepts. They grow confident in their ability to think through new ideas. All they need is a piece of paper, a pencil, and a good prompt to launch their mathematical journey. 312 Things To Do with a Math Journal includes number play prompts, games, math art, story problems, mini-essays, geometry investigations, brainteasers, number patterns, research projects, and much more. These activities work at any grade level, and most can be enjoyed more than once. It doesn’t matter whether your students are homeschooled or in a classroom, distance-learning, or in person. Everyone can enjoy the experience of playing around with math. Early Reviews from My Journaling Beta-Testers: • "We really enjoyed these!" • "I remember doing pages and pages of dull equations with no creativity or puzzle-thinking, but now as a homeschool mom, I'm actually enjoying math for the first time! My daughter's math skills have skyrocketed and she always asks to start homeschool with math." • "Thank you for a great intro to Playful Math!" • "All of the kids were excited about their journals. My oldest kept going without prompting and did several more pages on his own." • "We had a lot of fun doing your math prompts. We had never done any math journaling before, but we will certainly integrate this into our weekly routine from now on." Pick up a copy of 312 Things To Do with a Math Journal and begin your family’s math journaling adventure today.

Second Handbook of Research on Mathematics Teaching and Learning by Frank K. Lester Pdf

The audience remains much the same as for the 1992 Handbook, namely, mathematics education researchers and other scholars conducting work in mathematics education. This group includes college and university faculty, graduate students, investigators in research and development centers, and staff members at federal, state, and local agencies that conduct and use research within the discipline of mathematics. The intent of the authors of this volume is to provide useful perspectives as well as pertinent information for conducting investigations that are informed by previous work. The Handbook should also be a useful textbook for graduate research seminars. In addition to the audience mentioned above, the present Handbook contains chapters that should be relevant to four other groups: teacher educators, curriculum developers, state and national policy makers, and test developers and others involved with assessment. Taken as a whole, the chapters reflects the mathematics education research community's willingness to accept the challenge of helping the public understand what mathematics education research is all about and what the relevance of their research fi ndings might be for those outside their immediate community.

Mathematics (Education) in the Information Age by Stacy A. Costa,Marcel Danesi,Dragana Martinovic Pdf

This book brings together ideas from experts in cognitive science, mathematics, and mathematics education to discuss these issues and to present research on how mathematics and its learning and teaching are evolving in the Information Age. Given the ever-broadening trends in Artificial Intelligence and the processing of information generally, the aim is to assess their implications for how math is evolving and how math should now be taught to a generation that has been reared in the Information Age. It will also look at the ever-spreading assumption that human intelligence may not be unique—an idea that dovetails with current philosophies of mind such as posthumanism and transhumanism. The role of technology in human evolution has become critical in the contemporary world. Therefore, a subgoal of this book is to illuminate how humans now use their sophisticated technologies to chart cognitive and social progress. Given the interdisciplinary nature of the chapters, this will be of interest to all kinds of readers, from mathematicians themselves working increasingly with computer scientists, to cognitive scientists who carry out research on mathematics cognition and teachers of mathematics in a classroom.
