At the heart of the understanding of nature is physics, or natural philosophy as it was known in Newton's time. As the Nineteenth Century drew to a close, it became clear that the world-view we inherited from Newton was not complete. Two great changes were on the horizon, in the form of relativity and quantum mechanics. Einstein had a hand in both, though his principal contribution was creation of the theory of relativity. On the other hand, calculus has withstood the test of time since Isaac Newton invented it to understand gravitation and the clockwork of our Universe. The mathematical tools Newton invented have served us for 350 years. Learn about the ideas that have shaped our understanding of the Universe. Without them, we would know little of our origins or of our destiny.

47. Rational Mathematics Education I look back on my own K12 mathematics education with a great deal of regret, not the least of which grounded in the fact that I was never led to realize http://rationalmathed.blogspot.com/

skip to main skip to sidebar Wednesday, March 5, 2008 Problem Solving Curricula, Remediation, and At-Risk Students (Part 1) How do we effectively effect remediation for students who are desperately behind state and districts grade level expectations? Or behind reasonable developmental expectations, which may not necessarily be the same thing? Regardless of issues of tracking, there are always going to be students who need remediation in mathematics as things currently stand (I tend not to make very long-range predictions, but I don't see this situation changing in my lifetime). As I've noted frequently on this blog, the critics of progressive reform contend both that things are far worse today than they were during some amorphous Golden Age of US mathematical competence, and that the main culprits in the alleged fall from grace are NCTM, NSF, "fuzzy math," "dumbed-down" curricula and state standards, constructivism, discovery learning, student-centered teaching, and, of course, calculators. (This list is not meant to be exhaustive, of course, but it's pretty indicative of the nature of their candidates for blame). The above example is but one of dozens from the basic elementary curriculum that students have to go over repeatedly once they're caught in the remediation cycle. (Of course, there are students who are allowed to avoid all this in certain school districts, but not to their advantage, and with NCLB still the law of the land, as well as state-mandated high stakes standardized tests, such students are increasingly unlikely to be able to graduate high school, for good or for ill). The hurdles for students who struggle with basic mathematics are legion: subtraction, division, signed numbers, fractions, decimals, percents, and, of course, basic algebra, to name but some of the most obvious.

News Mathematics in Adult Education and Literacy Research and Evaluation Noteworthy Practices Additional Links Reading has been the primary emphasis in building research-based knowledge about how adults learn and improve their literacy skills. Because today's decisions are based on data, it is equally important for adult learners to develop and strengthen skills in mathematics, and for educators to identify what works best in developing those skills and create applications for adults. Mathematics skills are a gatekeeper for further education and training, and significantly affect employability and career options. Even for jobs requiring postsecondary education, employers seek employees who are proficient in mathematics, as well as reading, who can use math to solve problems, and communicate effectively. The role of adult basic education in strengthening mathematics skills is central to the U.S. Department of Education's vision for adult education.

What was EMELI? EMELI (The Equity in Mathematics Education Institute) was funded by the National Science Foundation from 1995 to 2001. Although the project funding has ended, some of the activities of EMELI are going on under the supervision of the National Coalition for Equity in Education (click on tab above for NCEE). This website will give you some idea of what the project was about. The goal of the Equity in Mathematics Education Leadership Institute (EMELI) was: to increase the ability of mathematics education reform leaders to effectively and productively address equity, in order that teachers and schools will change practices that impede the learning of students from groups underrepresented in mathematics Why an Equity in Mathematics Education Leadership Institute? Presently, an infrastructure does not exist for educators to support addressing equity in mathematics education in ways that produce significant change in the mathematics experience of students from underrepresented groups. Over the past decade, methods that help teachers and schools change the mathematics content and pedagogy have become institutionalized in professional development. Reform of assessment methods receives considerable resources. Attempts to help educators change institutionalized bias or individual teaching practices that are inequitable, however, are more rare. At professional meetings there are usually few sessions that address how race, gender, class, or other forms of bias affect the teaching and learning of mathematics. Likewise, few sessions consider cultural or linguistic issues in mathematics education.

57. Discussing Undergraduate Mathematics Education On The Internet There are several other good lists that address math education, although their focus is not exclusively undergraduate level mathematics. http://www.maa.org/features/mathed_disc.html

Discussing Undergraduate Mathematics Education on the Internet While the WWW may seem for the present to have stolen the show, people still get a lot of work done by writing to each other over the Internet. If volume is a good indicator, teachers thirst for opportunities to talk with others who share their interests and concerns. Newsgroups and mailing lists abound on just about any conceivable subject. Finding the right group, however, can be a challenge. Given a captive audience, some will abuse the privilege. You may learn of a group focused on the right topic only to find that the conversation is dominated by unproductive harangues, or wanders too far afield. Sometimes you join but there's no one there, or ideas come flying so fast that it's hard to achieve anything close to a conversation. Perhaps you are limited to email access but the discussion you want is taking place only on the Web or within a newsgroup. (There are usually ways to get around such limitations, but it can take extra energy to conquer the obstacles.) Since even in the best of situations the medium is not yet mature, many people are working together to define norms and productive formats that will help us realize its full potential. Even now, depending on their interests and purpose math educators have a number of solid options.

Site Links Home Search for ERIC Digests Privacy Policy Resources for Library Instruction ... Information Literacy Blog ERIC Identifier: Publication Date: Author: Ozgun-Koca, S. Asli Source: ERIC Clearinghouse for Science Mathematics and Environmental Education Columbus OH. Using Spreadsheets in Mathematics Education. ERIC Digest. "Spreadsheets build an ideal bridge between arithmetic and algebra and allow the student free movement between the two worlds. Students look for patterns, construct algebraic expressions, generalize concepts, justify conjectures, and establish the equivalence of two models as intrinsic and meaningful needs rather than as arbitrary requirements posed by the teacher." (Friedlander, 1998, p. 383) Educational research supports the use of spreadsheets both in K-12 and teacher education and in professional development. Abramovich and Nabors (1997) describe how using spreadsheets helped seventh grade algebra students develop problem-solving skills. Molyneux-Hodgson et. al (1999) states that the results of their study "suggest the possibility of enhancing students' capability to shift between a wider range of representations using the modeling approach embedded in computer environments such as a spreadsheet" (p.1). Dudgale (1994) reports a project that involved experienced K-12 teachers in mathematical modeling and problem solving using spreadsheets and concludes that teachers developed models that exhibited a wide variety of mathematics topics and approaches in different grade levels.

A total of 5,765 science and mathematics teachers in schools across the United States participated in this survey. Among the questions addressed by the survey: How well prepared are science and mathematics teachers in terms of both content and pedagogy? What are teachers trying to accomplish in their science and mathematics instruction, and what activities do they use to meet these objectives? To what extent do teachers support reform notions embodied in the National Research Council's National Science Education Standards and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics' Principles and Standards for School Mathematics?
