Book Description
The International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME) is the largest international conference on mathematics education in the world. This quadrennial event is organized under the auspices of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI). This book, the Proceedings of ICME-14, presents the latest trends in mathematics education research and mathematics teaching practices at all levels. Each chapter covers an extensive range of topics in mathematics education.Volume I consists of 4 Plenary Lectures, 3 Plenary Panels, 5 Lectures of Awardees, 4 Survey Teams, 62 Topic Study Groups, 13 Discussion Groups, 20 Workshops, a Thematic Afternoon, and an Early Career Researcher Day. Plenary Lectures recognize substantial and continuing contributions to the growth of the field of Mathematics Education. Plenary Panels address three major challenges currently facing mathematics educators across the globe. The Survey Teams have a particular emphasis on identifying and characterizing important new knowledge, recent developments, new perspectives, and emergent issues. The Topic Study Groups provides a coverage of important topics in mathematics education.Volume II consists of 50 invited lectures which present the work and reflections of both established and emerging researchers from around the world. These lectures cover a wide spectrum of topics, themes and issues that reflect the latest challenges and development in the field of mathematics education.
Error Patterns in Computation
Author : Robert B. Ashlock
Publisher : Macmillan College
Page : 256 pages
File Size : 32,30 MB
Release : 1994
Category : Education
ISBN :
Book Description
As your students learn about mathematical operations and methods of computation, they may adopt erroneous procedures and misconceptions, despite your best efforts. This engaging book was written to model how you, the teacher, can make thoughtful analyses of your student's work, and in doing so, discover patterns in the errors they make. The text considers reasons why students may have learned erroneous procedures and presents strategies for helping those students. You will come away from the reading with a clear vision of how you can use student error patterns to gain more specific knowledge of their strengths on which to base your future instruction.

Helping Children Learn Mathematics
Author : National Research Council
Publisher : National Academies Press
Page : 53 pages
File Size : 28,99 MB
Release : 2002-07-31
Category : Education
ISBN : 0309131987
Book Description
Results from national and international assessments indicate that school children in the United States are not learning mathematics well enough. Many students cannot correctly apply computational algorithms to solve problems. Their understanding and use of decimals and fractions are especially weak. Indeed, helping all children succeed in mathematics is an imperative national goal. However, for our youth to succeed, we need to change how we're teaching this discipline. Helping Children Learn Mathematics provides comprehensive and reliable information that will guide efforts to improve school mathematics from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade. The authors explain the five strands of mathematical proficiency and discuss the major changes that need to be made in mathematics instruction, instructional materials, assessments, teacher education, and the broader educational system and answers some of the frequently asked questions when it comes to mathematics instruction. The book concludes by providing recommended actions for parents and caregivers, teachers, administrators, and policy makers, stressing the importance that everyone work together to ensure a mathematically literate society.

Constructing Number
Author : Anderson Norton
Publisher : Springer
Page : 377 pages
File Size : 37,31 MB
Release : 2018-12-17
Category : Education
ISBN : 3030004910
Book Description
The book synergizes research on number across two disciplines—mathematics education and psychology. The underlying problem the book addresses is how the brain constructs number. The opening chapter frames the problem in terms of children’s activity, including mental and physical actions. Subsequent chapters are organized into sections that address specific domains of number: natural numbers, fractions, and integers. Chapters within each section address ways that children build upon biological primitives (e.g., subitizing) and prior constructs (e.g., counting sequences) to construct number. The book relies on co-authored chapters and commentaries at the end of each section to create dialogue between junior faculty and senior researchers, as well as between psychologists and mathematics educators. The final chapter brings this work together around the framework of children’s activity and additional themes that arise in the collective work. The book is aimed to appeal to mathematics educators, mathematics teacher educators, mathematics education researchers, educational psychologists, cognitive psychologists, and developmental psychologists.
School Neuropsychology
Author : James B. Hale
Publisher : Guilford Publications
Page : 337 pages
File Size : 19,87 MB
Release : 2017-03-13
Category : Psychology
ISBN : 1462532373
Book Description
This important resource presents the latest information on brain-behavior relationships and describes ways school practitioners can apply neuropsychological principles in their work with children. Bridging the gap between neuropsychological theory, assessment, and intervention, this accessible text addresses complex topics in a straightforward, easy-to-understand fashion. The authors challenge previous conceptions about brain functions and present the cognitive hypothesis-testing model, an innovative method that helps practitioners form accurate understandings of learner characteristics and conduct meaningful and valid individualized interventions with children with a range of learning and behavior disorders. Including case studies and examples that illustrate what practitioners might actually see and do in the classroom, the volume comes in a large-size format with reproducible worksheets and forms.
