Silver, Edward A., Ed.; Kenney, Patricia Ann, Ed. – National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2015
This book's 28 chapters are adapted and updated from articles published in NCTM's "Journal for Research in Mathematics Education" between 2000 and 2010. The authors have rewritten and revised their work to make it clear, understandable, and--most of all--useful for mathematics teachers today. To help teachers even more, these articles…

Krulik, Stephen, Ed.; Reys, Robert E., Ed. – 1980
The twenty-two essays on problem solving included in this publication give ideas and examples for use in the classroom at all levels of instruction. Topics discussed in the essays include but are not limited to: problem posing, clues from research, story problems, calculators, textbook problems, and measuring problem solving. Polya's heuristics as…

Portable Technologies: Science Learning in Context. Innovations in Science Education and Technology.
Tinker, Robert F., Ed.; Krajcik, Joseph S., Ed. – 2001
Education has traditionally studied the world by bringing it into the classroom. This method can result in situated learning that appears to students to have no relevance outside the classroom. Students acquire inert, decontextualized knowledge that they cannot apply to real problems. The obvious solution to this shortcoming is to reverse the…

Hill, Shirley, Ed. – 1982
Issues in school mathematics programs are considered in this book. In the first section, mathematics education at the start of the decade is examined through two articles: a discussion of the status of mathematics programs and of prospects for the 80s, and an interpretation of the results of the second national mathematics assessment of the…

Brockmann, Ellen M., Ed. – 1981
One of five volumes intended to help teachers of mainstreamed handicapped students, the book presents twelve papers on teaching mathematics. Eight papers address instructional techniques for basic skills and problem solving: "Modalities--One Technique to Mainstream in Mathematics Instruction" (G. Rossi); "Computation Errors--Are We Treating A…

Trafton, Paul R., Ed.; Shulte, Albert P., Ed. – 1989
This yearbook consists of five sections, with samples of children's work appearing between sections. Part 1, "Perspective on Change in Elementary School Mathematics," describes and discusses broad components of change in elementary school mathematics. The central roles of problem solving, communication, and reasoning are highlighted, as is the…

Cohen, Martin P., Ed.; And Others – 1985
One of the strengths of the Pennsylvania Council of Teachers of Mathematics (PCTM) is that it gives mathematicians and mathematics educators the opportunity to exchange and contribute to each other's professional growth. The topic for this 1985 yearbook, the first of a proposed ongoing series, has been chosen to coincide with the annual PCTM…
