"Singapore Math: Place Value, Computation & Number Sense" is a six-part presentation on CD-ROM that can be used by individual teachers or an entire school. The author takes primary to upper elementary grade teachers through place value skills with each of the computational operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. She gives…

Describes a prime-number unit that targets middle school students learning about patterns, formulas, and large numbers while participating in a search for the largest prime number. (YDS)

Explores abundant numbers and presents a proof that abundant numbers of every order exist. Readers are encouraged to use the included computer program to explore abundant numbers for themselves, look for patterns in the output, and consider further questions. (Author/MKR)

Proposes some possible ways of using an interactive whiteboard as a means of stimulating pupils' thinking and active participation. (KHR)

Describes software tools designed to help students investigate relationships among representations of rational numbers that emphasize the part-whole model of a rational number. (KHR)

Discusses the use of calculators to calculate multiple operations. Describes calculating procedures and provides four different types of examples. (YP)

Argues that the use of computer technologies in secondary schools should change the nature of mathematics education. Urges the rethinking of the uses of traditional paper-and-pencil computations. Suggests some computer applications for elementary algebra and for problem solving in arithmetic and calculus. (TW)

This book is organized in three major sections. The first section provides 15 lesson plans for the integration of activities involving computer uses in mathematics instruction. Each lesson plan includes grade level, objective, time, materials, important terms, background, suggestions, and activities. The second section provides a list of available…

This document describes a mathematics course that uses the computer to solve mathematics problems. It was developed to be used with students who have completed at least one year of general mathematics or are not achieving success in the traditional mathematics program. The course is intended to review, reinforce, and extend concepts included in…

This handbook was developed as one of the objectives of a 3-year federally-funded model project to teach remedial mathematics to community college students with learning disabilities (LD). The underlying theme of this document is to provide a comprehensive plan to assist faculty, tutors, learning center personnel and others engaged in the effort…
