Every parent knows kids spend a lot of time on the the internet. So why not turn some of that time into productive math learning time as well. Let's face it...kids will be kids...they love games! A Fun Way To Learn Math Are your kids are tired of boring math assignments? Math games are fun and effective learning activities that help kids master addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Online Fraction Games Don't let those fractions get the best of your students. Math games are a great way to conquer math! The internet has become a great learning tool.Online learning is becoming more and more common. And what's so great is that most of the activities are free. Kids nowadays are so computer savvy, learning math with games online is just a natural fit. Online math activities are an excellent way to practice math concepts learned in school.

What are the Different Types of Numbers? - College Algebra Video Natural Numbers This is a lesson on the different classifications of numbers, which is basically a big word for just saying that numbers are part of families and numbers have different homes depending on what kind of number they are, just like people do. I'll start by talking about myself a little bit. A lot of the time when I meet someone new, they ask me where I live. You don't give them your specific address. On the numbers side of things, the most basic number is the number 1, and the most specific descriptor of where it lives is called the natural numbers. Whole Numbers Back to me real fast, although I do live in Cupertino, Cupertino is part of Santa Clara County. Numbers are the exact same way. Integers Taking a step further back in my situation, Cupertino and Santa Clara County are both parts of California. Taking a step out in terms of the numbers brings us to what are called the integers. Rational Numbers That trend continues with the numbers. Irrational Numbers Real Numbers
Oppikirjan tulevaisuus, osa 2 Yksi matematiikan opetukseen liittyvistä ongelmista on liiallinen suljettujen, usein mekaanisten tehtävien käyttö. Tällä tarkoitetaan siis tehtäviä, joihin liittyy selkeä ja usein yksiselitteinen ratkaisumenetelmä sekä yksi ainoa oikea lopputulos. Ongelmana tällaisten tehtävien liiallisessa hyödyntämisessä on paitsi tylsistyminen ja matematiikan kokeminen yksiulotteiseksi sääntövarastoksi, myös lisääntynyt luulo siitä, että matematiikan oppiminen vaatii niin kutsuttua kiinteää älykkyyttä. Suljetut tehtävät ohjaavat ajattelua kiinteän älykkyyden suuntaan antamalla ymmärtää, että matematiikassa pärjätäkseen tulee (aina) osata tiettyjä valmiiksi annettuja menetelmiä. Sähköinen oppikirja saattaisi mahdollistaa suljettujen tehtävätyyppien käytön vähentämisen matematiikan opetuksessa. Oppikirjan tulevaisuus -paneelissa yleisön joukosta toivottiin sähköisyyden helpottavan opettajan työtä siten, että saataisiin kone tarkistamaan osaamista. Katso myös
Connected Mathematics Project Click here for the 19th Annual Getting to Know CMP Conference June 23-27, 2014. Click here for the 7th Annual CMP Leadership Conference June 23-27, 2014. With funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 1991-1996, and in 2000-2006, the Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) developed a complete mathematics curriculum for middle school teachers and students. CMP helps students and teachers develop understanding of important mathematical concepts, skillsprocedures, and ways of thinking and reasoning, in number, geometry, measurement, algebra, probability and statistics. CMP is based on research, and was field-tested in diverse sites across the country with approximately 45,000 students and 390 teachers. Each unit, in both 1991-1996 and 2000-2006 development periods, went through at least 3 cycles of field testing. All students should be able to reason and communicate proficiently in mathematics.
Mathematics and Technology In Pamoja Education’s online IB Diploma Programme Mathematics Higher Level (HL) courses, we use three main technology tools to help us do mathematics; TI-Nspire handheld graphing calculator, Geogebra and Autograph. This post is going to explain why we use technology to do mathematics and why in modern mathematics education technology is so important. There is an interesting relationship between technology and mathematics. What is mathematics? Mathematics is often described as the science of pattern. When we do mathematics we look for patterns. What does technology do? The first point to make about technology is that it cannot do proof (at least not yet!). How long has technology been used in mathematics? The technology that we have focused on has been digital. What is the future? To complete this article it is suggested that you watch the following TED talk by Conrad Wolfram.

How to Learn Algebra [This is part of a series of posts I'm writing as I reflect on another online course I'm taking this summer, Stanford University's EDUC115N How to Learn Math. Sure, I'm a Science teacher but I have taught Math so I'm familiar with Math instruction. Besides, we do use Math in Science so it's not like I don't do any Math with my students and my NB certification is an early adolescent generalist, which means I'm an integrationist at heart.] Here I have some of my notes from the second part of the course. I was taught to manipulate formulas and to use algorithms with little explanation so therefore little understanding on my part, of math conceptually. So how would I use Dr. 1. Let’s say students had a problem to solve, I’d have them work in their small teams taking each step one at a time. I’d begin by reading the problem out loud where everyone can see it, projected. Then I’d have kids talk to each other and share ideas. Finally, I’d ask, “Does it make sense?” 2. 3. 4. 5. Dr. 1.
matematiikan yksilöllisen opiskelun malli Professori Pekka Kupari peräänkuulutti LUMA-sanomissa 10.10.2013 laajaa keskustelua matematiikan opetuksen tilanteesta sekä uudenlaista opetuksen mallia. Tässä eräs keskustelunavaus uudenlaisesta opetuksen mallista – nk. yksilöllisen oppimisen malli on ollut LUMA-sanomissa esillä ennenkin, mutta pääasiassa lukiokontekstissa. Nyt toimittaja pääsi tutustumaan vastaavaan opetuskouluun peruskoulun yläluokilla Kilterin koulussa Vantaalla. Vierailin kollegani Terhi Hautalan kanssa Kilterin koulussa Vantaalla eräänä syksyisenä torstai-iltapäivänä. Terhi oli jo aikaisemmin käynyt Martinlaakson lukiossa Pekka Peuran vieraana, mutta itselleni tämä oli ensimmäinen kerta, kun pääsin näkemään yksilöllisen oppimisen menetelmän soveltamista käytäntöön. Ennen tuntien alkua oli hetki aikaa keskustella opettajanhuoneessa, ja Minna valaisi meille kokeilun taustoja. Me Terhin kanssa pääsemme osallistumaan 9. luokan ja 7. luokan matikan tunneille. Siirrytäänpä sitten 7. luokan tunnille. Syksyn alussa 7.
