1. Radical Math Advice

Radical Math Advice
A friend on AOL's Christianity Online's Unschooling message board responded to a question of how one might unschool math, and what texts or resources can be used.
I enjoyed her reply so much that I asked her permission to use her post. Well, we're having wonderful math days here in our house, so I felt inclined to post about my view point concerning math resources. Now, lots of you have had your chance to post about your favorite math texts, can I take a turn to add some radical suggestions?
Here are some resources that my kids are currently working with:
Mathlab by TOPS. I'd suggest this for ages 12 and up. It has activities that you would find in Math: A Human Endeavor, just addresses them in project format. I'm looking forward to doing the last card in the book - it's all about how to decipher those postal bar codes.
How Math Works by Reader's Digest. I know I've mentioned this book before, but I just love it! My son and I are making projects from this book every morning.
I found a workbook on math last week at Barnes and Noble. The company that published it is American Education Publishing. Half of it is math, the other half is reading skills. We've just worked in the math section so far, but my son really likes this book. The odd numbered pages seem to be puzzle/code/workbook type pages, the even pages are hands-on activities and games to make and play to reinforce the skills on the previous page. Yesterday we made cards and played a concentration type game to match improper fractions with mixed numbers. Today's game used equivalent fraction conversion skills. My son has been reluctant to learn these concepts in the Key to books, but he quickly grasped what he needed to do to play these games! I was surprised at how much he likes this book. The title is Enrichment Math and Reading, we have the grades 5/6 book. It was only $12.95.

GUIDE TO FRESHMAN and SOPHOMORE LEVEL MATHEMATICS COURSES AT UGA
Students should not consider themselves adequately prepared for a mathematics course unless they have earned grades of C or better in all prerequisite courses. The advice is broken down into the following sections:
  • For Non Science/Business Majors Precalculus Level Courses Calculus Options After Second Semester Calculus ... General Advice for Prospective Math Majors
  • Basic
    MATH 1101 (Mathematical Modeling): This course satisfies the Core A Mathematics requirement for students who will not continue to Precalculus and Calculus. Students will learn several ways to use mathematics to describe and explore real-world data and phenomena. WARNING: MATH 1101 will not prepare you for Precalculus, nor will it count in Core Area A if you are (or become) a Science major. If you think there is a chance you will be a Science major, you should take MATH 1113 instead.
    Precalculus Level
    MATH 1113 (Precalculus): This course is not intended to be a terminal mathematics course; it prepares students for the mainstream calculus courses. Exemption of or credit for MATH 1113 MATH 1060 (Mathematics of Decision Making): This course attempts to convey the flavor and variety of mathematics rather than develop skills to be used in later courses. It is usually taken by liberal arts majors. Occasionally, students who are considering majoring in mathematics use this course to get an overview of the subject.

    I got a call from a new hser today. She brought her dd home at Christmas, and finished out the school year. She used Alpha-0mega Algebra I, and is continuing with AO next year. The problem is that the dd would hit some problems that she couldn't figure out, and the mother couldn't help. I'm thinking she needs a solutions manual, but don't know if AO has one. I have offered to help her over rough spots, but am thinking she needs a more long term solution. Do you have any advice for this lady? Connie

    Yes, dump the AO. If she wants that style (no review), then maybe you can steer her to Key to Algebra She can also just call AO and ask for help. They used to help peopleI don't know if they still do.

    Math 5990: Topics in Teaching College Mathematics
    Advice from TAs who took this class
    • Be strict the first month of teaching you can start "cutting slack" when you know your students better.
    • Keep distance between you and your students, but try to be as warm as you can.
    • Maintain control. Don't try to be too friendly with students, but not too distant. Err on the side of distant.
    • Prepare well for class.
    • Go to see other teachers and try to learn from them.
    • If you use the blackboard think ahead what the blackboard should look like at the end of class.
    • Don't collect homework.

    Hi,
    I am a 19 year old student from Canada. I have been given a conditional admission to an Architecture program at a local university. The problem is I need to complete the grade 12 (pre-university) Algebra and Geometry course, with a grade of 75+ in about 4 weeks. As you know may know, all secondary schools are currently closed for summer holidays, so the only course available for me to take is the pre-university course offered by the university. It's a distance education course where I have to go through the course myself without any teacher's help and sit to write one exam in the end that's worth 100% of the mark. I have never been good at math and haven't done any math for half a year now.
    Do you all think it's actually possible to finish an entire course in a month and get 75+? I'd be very greatful if you could give me some advice as to how to study all the material. I just took a look at the text I received and there seems to be so much formulas to remember. So, should I study chapter by chapter and do all problems? or should I just read through the book to get an idea first, memorize the formulas before attempting the problems?
    Please help me .... :( I'm scared to death that I may be denied admission. Appreciate all your kind help.
