Extractions: On this page, we put the information on the math olympiads Polish high school students take part in, as well as the problem sets. Poland participates in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), the Austrian-Polish Mathematics Competition (APMC) and the Baltic Team Contest - "Baltic-Way" (B-W). Polish Team for the IMO consists of the six best scored students in the final round of the national Mathematical Olympiad (see below). The information on the IMO and the problems may be found in many places through the net, see for example In the APMC six students with the rank 7-12 in the national Mathematical Olympiad (see below) take part. The competition lasts three days. The first two days have an individual character (the first six problems in the below files), the third day is a team competition (the last three problems in the files).

GC Math Tracking Overview

Extractions: Utilization, Functionality, and Effectiveness of the Quarter-based General College Preparatory Mathematics Program Overview and Highlights of Results Spring 2001 Office of Research and Evaluation General College (GC) offers mathematics courses for students who lack the pre-requisite skills and concepts necessary for college level mathematics. Under the quarter system, the General College mathematics curriculum included a sequence of five preparatory mathematics courses. General College students would work with advisors in determining the appropriate point at which to begin the sequence. Enrollment in these courses was not restricted only to GC students; Students from other colleges did enroll in these courses, presumably because they were referred to such courses by the Math department. GC 0611 Introduction to Basic Mathematics, and GC 0615 Introduction to Mathematical Problem Solving comprised the absolute base of the sequence. Very few students began at this level, however. Next in the sequence were a series of three algebra courses: GC 0621 Elementary Algebra (pre-requisite- GC math placement or GC 0611 or GC 0615), GC 0625 Intermediate Algebra I (pre-requisite- GC math placement or Elementary Algebra with grade of C or better), and GC 0631 Intermediate Algebra II (pre-requisite- GC math placement or GC 0625 with grade of C or better). Completing GC 0631 with a grade of C or better was a pre-requisite for common college-level mathematics courses such as College Algebra and Probability (Math 1031), and Precalculus I (Math 1051).

Extractions: ANALYZING MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS AND PROBLEM-SOLVING PROCESSES My idea in teaching and learning has a lot to do with reflection. As a teacher I think back on the day and ask "why does that work?," "why didn't it work?," "how could I have done that differently?" It's a matter of looking back on what's happened. Part of the larger process I want my students to be involved in is looking back on what they've done and making some kind of analysis, seeing what kinds of questions they have. Professor Joseph Zilliox The journals helped me learn more about myself. Math was fun. I learned that children see math differently from me I need to think about relating to children. My expository writing has improved. I can express myself more easily on paper than before. Student COURSE GOALS The focus of the course is to encourage students to question the past and present pedagogy in mathematics education. Students reflect on their own processes for problem-solving and relate their experiences to the learning processes of their future students. Through a workshop approach, students discuss mathematical concepts and operations appropriate for the elementary school; students collaborate on class activities to develop teaching strategies and problem-solving methods.

REACHING THE SECOND TIER: LEARNING AND TEACHING STYLES IN COLLEGE SCIENCE EDUCAT
Discusses the study conducted by Sheila Tobias about two groups of science students that are separated by personal math class experience. Also, explains ways to discover a student's strong point as far as assimilating and processing knowledge.
http://www.ncsu.edu/felder-public/Papers/Secondtier.html

Extractions: In her recent study of college science instruction, Sheila Tobias [19] defines two tiers of entering college students, the first consisting of those who go on to earn science degrees and the second those who have the initial intention and the ability to do so but instead switch to nonscientific fields. The number of students in the second category might in fact be enough to prevent the shortfall of American scientists and engineers that has been widely forecast for the coming decade. The thrust of Tobias's study is that introductory science courses are responsible for driving off many students in the second tier. The negative features of the courses she cites include their (1) failure to motivate interest in science by establishing its relevance to the students' lives and personal interests; (2) relegation of students to almost complete passivity in the classroom; (3) emphasis on competition for grades rather than cooperative learning; and (4) focus on algorithmic problem-solving as opposed to conceptual understanding. Recent educational research provides theoretical support for Tobias's assertions, which are based largely on anecdotal accounts. The research shows that students are characterized by significantly different
