Home OLR Home Contact Calendar Search Teacher Technology Fellowships - Math Updated January 26, 2001 The Indiana Department of Education, in a competitive process, awarded Teacher Math Technology Fellowships of $1,500 each to 28 Indiana middle and high school math teachers. The purpose of the program is to enhance teaching and learning through innovative uses of educational technology. To support the fellowship activity, a grant of $3,000 was awarded to each recipient's school for the purchase of equipment and software. The following recipients will begin their fellowship activities during the summer and will continue throughout the 2000-2001 school year. Upon completion, they will share their new uses of technology with other teachers around the state. For more information, please contact Carolyn White at 317-232-9182 or cwhite@doe.state.in.us

Home Education Magazine January-February 1997 - Columns Older Kids - Cafi Cohen Rethinking Midschool/High School Math M-A-T-H. What thoughts come to mind with the word MATH? The three R's. A government school "required subject," according to many state statutes and some local regulations. An essential topic in any homeschool. Past that point, what official guidance are you given for teaching math? Often, none. What you cover and how you cover it is up to you. In the absence of specific directions, many homeschooling families pursue what I call School Math. School Math is how most parents studied math when they attended school; and it is how most schools still teach math. School Math involves textbooks, workbooks, and exams. Older kids pursuing School Math study the subject sequentially in other words, arithmetic, followed by algebra, then geometry, second year algebra, trigonometry, and so on. Those using a School Math program must always "show all the steps" and reason exactly like the author of the text reasons. Alternate approaches to problem solving are unacceptable. Getting the right answer is emphasized, often to the exclusion of understanding the process. School Math texts often include unrealistic problems. Typical is the following. A 20-ft. telephone pole falls across a street and the two ends extend one foot and three feet either side of the street. How wide is the street?

search options Friday, September 23, 2005 Using Real-World Data Visit the Math Article Archive for more math-related content. Helping students understand and appreciate the value of mathematics is an important part of what teachers do. One means of accomplishing this goal is to provide students with mathematically meaningful activities that involve or grow out of real world situations. The Mathematics Teacher journal (a publication of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics) helps provide resources of this type by publishing each month a Media Clips section. Media Clips include brief news clippings or ads with stories that involve mathematics. For example, in the February 2000 issue (page 120) a clipping from the St. Paul Pioneer Press featured a story concerning how the Federal Comunications Commission (FCC) is seeking ways to limit the profusion of telephone area codes. Accompanying this story were a series of questions addressing the mathematics that was embedded in this news report: what types of numerals are used for area codes, how many possibilities are there, and a mathematical error in the article. In the same section in the April 2000 issue, a brief graph concerning the world’s population reaching 6 billion from the USA TODAY newspaper was featured. A series of questions related to the graph are presented. Whether you use the Media Clips section or just keep your eyes (and mind) open to things you see everyday, the world is full interesting ideas to bring into your math class.

Source: ERIC Clearinghouse for Science Mathematics and Environmental Education Columbus OH. Graphing Calculators in the Mathematics Classroom. ERIC Digest. As predicted by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) in their series of reform documents ("Curriculum and Evaluation Standards," 1989; "Professional Standards," 1991; "Assessment Standards," 1995), graphing calculators have presented a challenging task for mathematics teachers in today's classrooms. Faced with the power of a small and easy-to-use computer, teachers must reconsider the mathematical content, educational methods, and assessment strategies that they employ. In a world of accessible technology, the very nature of mathematics and what it means "to do mathematics" is called into question. Not unlike the painstaking infusion of four-function calculators into the elementary curriculum, graphing calculators are redefining the notion of demonstrated knowledge in secondary mathematics. With calculators that can do so much more than simple arithmetic, increasing attention has been devoted to developing materials that enrich learning experiences in mathematics. Four distinct types of enrichment have been identified, and this digest provides a sampling of references for each. Graphing calculators can be used as: (1) tools for expediency, (2) amplifiers for conceptual understanding, (3) catalysts for critical thinking, and (4) vehicles for integration.

NETS Main NETS for Students Essential Conditions Standards for Students ... Digital Edge Project Mathematics Learning Activities Search Lessons and Units Database Technology is an important resource for teaching and learning mathematics. Calculators, computers, and the World Wide Web are invaluable for students and teachers in the classroom. Technology allows students to visualize and experience mathematics in heretofore impossible ways, engage in real-world (rather than contrived) problem solving, perform rapid and complex computations, and generate their own representations of their own learning. Furthermore, technology allows students to undertake projects that connect with global communities, integrate mathematics with other subjects, and fit students' individual needs and interests. Information and communications technologies provide resources for enhancing, modifying, and connecting mathematics education to real-world applications. Resources that support this learning include the Internet, graphing calculators, simulation and spreadsheet software, real-time videoconferencing, and virtual reality simulations. The Technology Principle is one of the guiding principles of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics' Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM, 2000). It states, in part: "mathematics instructional programs should use technology to help all students understand mathematics and should prepare them to use mathematics in an increasingly technological world" Technology facilitates the transition from traditional mathematics to real-world problems. Instruction in mathematics is shifting from topics taught in isolation to presenting realistic problems to student researchers.
