Although research on the effectiveness of differentiated and enriched instruction in improving the achievement of diverse students is still emerging, some studies suggest that students in academically diverse classrooms benefited academically from differentiated learning experiences. The primary research question explored in this study was…

This paper presents an investigation by pre-service secondary school teachers in a geometry class of the relationship between the perpendicular distance from the eyeball to the wall (x) and the viewable vertical distance on the wall (y) using a view tube of constant length and diameter. In undertaking the investigation, students used tabular and…

This article provides an overview of vertex-edge graphs as an essential topic in the high school mathematics curriculum, including rationale, recommendations, and sample applications. A classroom-ready activity with full teacher notes is also included. (Contains 1 table and 9 figures.)

This is part one of a three-part School Mathematics Study Group (SMSG) textbook. This part contains the first five chapters including: (1) Analytic Geometry, (2) Coordinates and the Line, (3) Vectors and Their Applications, (4) Proof by Analytic Methods, and (5) Graphs and Their Equations. (MK)

Includes materials in reproducible format designed to help students read and draw distance-time graphs and use the slopes of these graphs to draw conclusions about car speed. (PK)

Presents a lesson in which students communicate verbally and in writing to create and describe geometric transformations, develop vocabulary, demonstrate ability to give unambiguous instructions to translate a triangle, form and test conjectures, and create extensions of problems. Includes reproducible student worksheets and questions for…

This article presents problems to challenge students over and above the standard curriculum problems assigned at a Course I level. Every additional problem in the article can be solved using only the tools provided by Course I. (AIM)

This book provides a resource for mathematics teachers to understanding the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics' (NCTM) standards and implementing these standards in their teaching. Five standards are overviewed: (1) number and operation; (2) algebra; (3) geometry; (4) measurement; and (5) data analysis and probability. Lesson plans are…

The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) looked at elementary school math curricula designed to promote math knowledge and skills among elementary school students (average ages 5 to 10 years). Curricula included in this review are replicable, materials-based instructional programs that cover one or more of the following content areas: numbers,…
