technical college majors, such as engineering, computer science and teaching of mathematics. The high rate of students changing their majors from science-oriented to less mathematically rigorous majors can be observed at any University. Students struggle with passing multivariate content of the calculus college sequence (calculus I, II, and III) in particular, the visual aspect of the course. In the course of semester-long study, observed students divided into three distinct groups according to their mathematical visualization... Calculus is often viewed as a gateway to more

A Man Left Albuquerque Heading East; Word Problems as Genre in Mathematics Education
ISBN: 9780820458236 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Word problems, or story problems, have been a part of mathematical education for the past 4,000 years. This book considers mathematical word problems as a genre, drawing on analytic theory from linguistics, literary criticism, and mathematics education. Raising the question, -what are word problems?-, this book addresses it by -taking a walk- around the genre to see it from many points of view, including the linguistic, the historical, and the pedagogical. A Man Left Albuquerque Heading East sheds light on the nature of genre in education and inspires teachers to use word problems in...

Rigorous Mathematical Thinking
ISBN: 9780521700269 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book demonstrates how rigorous mathematical thinking can be fostered through the development of students cognitive tools and operations. Though this approach can be applied in any classroom, it seems to be particularly effective with socially disadvantaged and culturally different students. The authors argue that children s cognitive functions cannot be viewed as following a natural maturational path: They should be actively constructed during the educational process. The Rigorous Mathematical Thinking (RMT) model is based on two major theoretical approaches allowing such an active...

universities and look forward to stepping into their own classrooms for the first time. All too often, however, this enthusiasm is short lived because these beginners encounter challenges along the way that may result in their early departure from the profession. The problem of attrition may be addressed long before the student of teaching transitions to teacher. A meaningful response begins at the university when teacher education programs provide experiences that prepare beginners for the realities of the profession. An important...

Students' Reasoning about Limit
ISBN: 9783639164640 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Limit plays a vital role as a foundational concept in analysis. The vast majority of topics encountered in calculus and undergraduate analysis are built upon understanding the concept of limit and being able to work flexibly with its formal definition. This book describes a study conducted with the purpose of: 1) Developing insight into students' reasoning about limit in relation to their reinventing the formal definition, and; 2) Informing the design of principled instruction that might support students' attempts to reinvent the formal definition. In separate teaching experiments, two pairs...
