Proportional Reasoning Models in Developing Mathematics Education Curricula for Prospective Elementary School Teachers

Ferrucci, Beverly J., Carter, Jack, Lee, Ngan Hoe 13 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
A study of pre-service primary school teachers in Singapore and the United States revealed superior performance by the Singaporeans on proportional reasoning problems. Analysis of solutions showed the Singapore future teachers were more likely to use unitary and benchmark approaches than were their American counterparts. Conclusions include suggestions for programs intended to improve the performance of prospective elementary school teachers on proportional reasoning problems.

Elementary Students’ Construction of Proportional Reasoning Problems: Using Writing to Generalize Conceptual Understanding in Mathematics

Lamm, Millard, Pugalee, David K. 04 May 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This study engaged fourth and fifth graders in solving a set of proportional tasks with focused discussion and concept development by the teacher. In order to understand the students’ ability to generalize the concept, they were asked to write problems that reflected the underlying concepts in the tasks and lessons. A qualitative analysis of the student generated problems show that the majority of the students were able to generalize the concepts. The analysis allowed for a discussion of problems solving approaches and a rich description of how students applied multiplicative reasoning in composing mathematics problems. These results are couched in a discussion of how the students solved the proportional reasoning tasks.

Problems to put students in a role close to a mathematical researcher

Giroud, Nicolas 13 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
In this workshop, we present a model of problem that we call Research Situation for the Classroom (RSC). The aim of a RSC is to put students in a role close to a mathematical researcher in order to make them work on mathematical thinking/skills. A RSC has some characteristics : the problem is close to a research one, the statement is an easy understandable question, school knowledge are elementary, there is no end, a solved question postponed to new questions... The most important characteristic of a RSC is that students can manage their research by fixing themselves some variable of the problem. So, a RSC is completely different from a problem that students usually do in France. For short : there is no final answer, students can try to resolve their own questions : a RSC is a large open field where many sub-problems exist; the goal for the students is not to apply a technique: the goal is, as for a researcher, to search. These type of situations are particularly interesting to develop problem solving skills and mathematical thinking. They can also let students discover that mathematics are “alive” and “realistic”. This workshop will be split into two parts. First, we propose to put people in the situation of solving a RSC to make them discover practically what is it. After, we present the model of a RSC and some results of our experimentations.

A program for reducing teacher's resistance to changes in curriculum in centralized education systems. An experience on changes of mathematics text books in Iran based on distinction results

Ketabdar, Zohreh 02 May 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Curricula in concentrated educational systems are prepared from an upper-stream reference and hand over teachers’ disposal. Curricula in Iran are compiled in the so-called math curriculum development office and then put at the disposal of teachers. The researches in this regard show that such plans provide some resistance against executing it which are named teacher - proof programs, even it changed to some extent for accept ion, its execution is suspeciable. This research first explains how math books of middle grade were changed as a result of investigations on TIMSS result in year 1995. These investigation show Iranian Books are weakness in problem solving methods as Polya had said. And so curricula developers in Iran tried to integrate Polya\\\'s method in math books and changed curricula based these frame work. Then, it shows how teachers treated these changes. The finding of analyzing the data has been collected in this research through observations and interviews. It is intended that teachers resist against these changes. Finally according to this research, we suggest a model which we refer if it is used through concentrated educational system, we could expect teachers tolerance against the changes would be decreased and so compiled curricula further matched to executed curricula.

Positionen zur Pflege: ein Diskussionsbeitrag

12 May 2021 (has links)
Die vorliegenden Positionen zur Pflege sind Ergebnis eines Gesprächsprozesses zwischen dem Fachreferat Altenhilfe des Paritätischen Sachsen, den Fachbeiräten für ambulante und stationäre Pflege sowie den Vertreter(inne)n der Mitgliedsorganisationen des Landesverbandes. Sie formulieren zentrale Forderungen, die aus Sicht der Beteiligten einer dringenden Umsetzung bedürfen, um auch künftig menschenwürdige Pflege umzusetzen.

Sozial- und bildungspolitische Lösungen für Sachsen: Vorschläge des Paritätischen Wohlfahrtsverbandes Sachsen

12 May 2021 (has links)
Nach langem sozial- und bildungspolitischen Stillstand in Sachsen kam in den letzten Jahren wieder Bewegung in die Themenfelder. Ob Kita, Schule oder Schulsozialarbeit - in kleinen Schritten werden Verbesserungen angegangen. Dabei sind Versäumnisse der Vergangenheit aufzuholen und neue Herausforderungen anzugehen. Die Bandbreite an Aufgaben ist groß. Doch welche gehören sofort auf die sozial- und bildungspolitische Agenda des Freistaates Sachsen? Auf den folgenden Seiten unterbreitet der Paritätische Sachsen Vorschläge, die zeitnah in Sachsen umgesetzt werden sollten, um wichtige sozial- und bildungspolitische Weichen zu stellen. Die Auswahl der aufgeführten Maßnahmen ist das Ergebnis des trägerübergreifenden Dialogs in der Mitgliedschaft des Paritätischen Sachsen und einer intensiven Diskussion auf der Klausur des Landesvorstandes.
