Linking Teachers and Mathematicians: The AWM Teacher Partnership Program

Hsu, Pao-sheng, Lenhart, Suzanne, Voolich, Erica 17 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Within a professional organization for women in mathematics in the US, two mathematicians and a middle school teacher organize a program to link teachers of students at the pre-university level with professionals in the mathematical sciences in and outside of academia to promote collaborations among different communities in the mathematics education of students. This paper describes the program and its operations, some of its experiences, as well as some results from a formative evaluation conducted for the program. Some recommendations are given for potential organizers of similar programs in other countries.

Reflections on an Initiative to Improve Junior Secondary School Pupils’ Understanding of Number

Johnston, Noel 17 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
In 2005 the opportunity to apply the New Zealand ‘Numeracy’ approach to teaching Mathematics was extended into the secondary school sector. The goal was to alter teachers’ pedagogy so that ‘sense making’ rather than ‘instruction’ was the core objective of their lessons. Ultimately it is hoped that along with a familiarity and comprehension of Number will come a relatively seamless acquisition of the fundamentals of Algebra. This paper will present details of this approach for teaching Number, the status of Number in the secondary school curriculum, the focus and ramifications of teaching for understanding, as opposed to assimilating and learning to apply algorithms, and will also consider evidence of the effectiveness of the initiative.

Creating and Utilizing Online Assignments in a Calculus Class

Jungic, Veselin, Kent, Deborah, Menz, Petra 17 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
The aims of this paper are to present some of the findings about the creation and utilization of online assignments and choice of support software for several calculus classes at Simon Fraser University (SFU) by considering the needs and perspectives of the instructors, students, and administrators. The term online assignment is used for a set of problems that are posted, submitted, graded, and recorded electronically through a course learning management system (LMS) of choice. The purpose of this note is to contribute to the discussion about a common question detected among research papers on the theme of online assignments; how can technology be used in teaching so that students benefit the most? Questions are provided to guide an instructor in choosing online assignment problems, and a list of necessary skills is supplied for an instructor to be able to deal effectively with this pedagogical tool.

Schulmeister hatten es noch nie leicht…: Wo einst der Rohrstock in der Schule regierte - regiert heute Chaos?

Schönfuß-Krause, Renate 01 July 2021 (has links)
Schule einst und jetzt - der Blick in die Geschichte ist für die Bewertung des 'Heute' unerlässlich. Das Schulsystem und damit die Bildungspolitik ist in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland Ländersache. 16 Bundesländer fabrizieren 16 unterschiedliche Länder-Schulsysteme mit den unterschiedlichsten Schulformen, Lehrplänen und Prüfungsinhalten - ein unüberschaubarer Wirrwarr, der zusammen mit den teils plan- und konzeptionslosen, fast verzweifelt wirkenden Versuchen zur 'Beherrschung und Beseitigung' des selbstverursachten Lehrer- und Erziehermangels zu chaotischen Verhältnissen führt. Und das alles auf Kosten der Schüler, die ständig neuen Experimenten ausgesetzt werden. Unverantwortlich, da dies vor allem auf Kosten des Bildungs-Niveaus der heranwachsenden Generation geht. Was tut man mit dieser Bildungspolitik unseren Kindern an? Was tut man letztendlich damit uns allen an?
