Extractions: Home To The Teacher Student Lessons Math in the Real World!! Topic: Data Management - "Math in the Real World" Grade Level : Grade 7 Time: 15 -20 hours This Module was created to integrate technology into the Saskatchewan Mathematics 6-9 Curriculum: A Curriculum Guide for the Middle Level (Grades 6-9) (September 1996). This module and the activities were created by Bart Cote. The Mathematics Module is designed to be teacher directed, with fully developed ready to use student activities. It was designed to give a teacher the opportunity to incorporate these activities into the Data Management unit in his/her classroom. The module activities cover all of the objectives in the topics of Collecting, Organizing, Displaying, Summarizing and Interpreting, from the Data Management Strand. However, it is important to note that this module does not include any of the objectives from the Probability topic. The fully developed student activities will lead the student in collecting, organizing, displaying, summarizing and interpreting data that he/she will collect on a topic of his/her choice. This module provides an excellent opportunity for students to see how Data Management is used in everyday situations. See the teacher pages to find out more about the activities.

Extractions: Through the years, and probably through the centuries, teachers have struggled to make math meaningful by providing students with problems and examples demonstrating its applications in everyday life. Now, however, technology makes it possible for students to experience the value of math in daily life, instead of just reading about it. This week, Education World tells you about eight great math sites (plus a few bonus sites) that demonstrate relevance while teaching relevant skills. Let's begin at the Lemonade Stand , an online version of a classic computer game. At this site, students use $20 dollars in seed money to set up a virtual lemonade stand in a neighbor's yard. Each day, they must decide how many cups of lemonade to prepare, how much money to charge for each cup, and how much to spend on advertising. Their decisions are based on production costs and on the weather forecast which isn't always accurate. Students have 25 days to either make a go of the business or go broke. Can they learn enough about the vagaries of business to make a profit? Students of all ages will enjoy the challenge provided by this simple game, which simulates some real business challenges and demonstrates how math fluency can help overcome them.

Extractions: Sample Activities to Introduce Spreadsheets to Students Computer technology is changing the ways we use mathematics; consequently, the content of mathematics programs and the methods by which mathematics is taught are changing. Students must continue to study appropriate mathematics, content, and they also must be able to recognize when and how to use computers effectively when doing mathematics ... Mathematics teacher should be able to appropriately use a variety of computer tools such as programming languages and spreadsheets in the mathematics classroom. For example, teacher should be able to identify topics for which expressing an algorithm as a computer program will deepen student insight, and they should be able to develop or modify programs to fit the needs of classes or individuals. Keeping pace with advances in technology will enable mathematics teachers to use the most efficient and effective tools available ... - The Use of Computers in the Learning and Teaching of Mathematics, NCTM, 1987
