Put Some POW in Your First-Year Algebra Classes.
Frank, Martha L.
Mathematics Teacher, v84 n5 p347-49 May 1991
The problem-of-the-week (POW) and problem-solving class openers are exemplified as methods for the integration of course-relevant problem solving into a first-year algebra classroom without sacrificing time spent on developing skills and learning concepts. Illustrated examples, as well as problem sources, are included. (JJK)
