Algebraic Thinking Skills (ATS) are one of the skills that students need to master in order to solve nonroutine problems. These skills are also necessary as a foundation for students preparing to enter university studies and fields of work that require logical and analytical thinking. However, Malaysian students' performance in solving algebraic…

Educational modules can play an important part in revitalizing the teaching and learning of complex analysis. At the Westmont College workshop on the subject in June 2014, time was spent generating ideas and creating structures for module proposals. Sharing some of those ideas and giving a few example modules is the main purpose of this paper. The…

The goal of this study is to develop the professional noticing abilities of prospective elementary school teachers in the context of the Stages of Early Arithmetic Learning. In their mathematics methods course, ninety-four prospective elementary school teachers from three institutions participated in a researcher-developed five-session module that…

The goal of this study is to develop the professional noticing abilities of preservice elementary teachers in the context of the Stages of Early Arithmetic Learning. In their mathematics methods course, the preservice elementary teachers participated in a researcher-developed multi-session module that progressively nests the three interrelated…

Presents five math games designed to give students extra practice in basic math operations. Each game is easy to make and stores in a file folder. (SJL)

This module cluster developed for the Camden Teacher Crops project is intended to enable students to improve their teaching abilities in arithmetic. Emphasis is placed on how to teach rather than on what to teach. The following modules are included in this document: a) Arithmetic Resource Materials--On Hand; b) Long Term (4-6 Weeks) Arithmetic…

Written for remedial/developmental students without algebraic skills, these three arithmetic modules for electronics cover measure, formulas, and pythagorean theorem. The self-paced modules incorporate use of calculators. With this aid the level of difficulty of comprehension is approximately seventh grade. Module 1, Measure, covers nine topics:…

This module is the 12th in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems. The solutions to the practice problems are found at the end of the module. Specific topics covered include order of operations, grouping, and use of the…

This module is the second in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems. The solutions to the practice problems are found at the end of the module. Specific topics covered include rounding off, precision of measurement, and the…

The "General Mathematics" series contains six modules intended to help students become more competent with basic mathematics. This module on fractions is designed to build or increase students' level of understanding and to help them develop those skills necessary to successfully understand and use basic fraction skills that are necessary for many…

This document consists of two major sections. The first of these is actually three units that look at applications of arithmetic to business. Basic pre-algebra mathematics is an assumed prerequisite. These units are titled: 367-The Real Numbers; 368-Fractions and Their Uses: Ratio and Proportion; and 369-Exponents: Powers and Roots. Each module…

This module is the first in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Designed for improving machine shop technology skills, this module begins with an introduction to the topic. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems. The solutions to the practice problems are…

This module is the seventh in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems. The solutions to the practice problems are found at the end of the module. Specific topics covered include fractions, fraction to decimal conversion,…

This module is the ninth in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems. The solutions to the practice problems are found at the end of the module. Specific topics covered include measurement conversions, the English system of…

This module is the 11th in a series of 12 learning modules designed to teach occupational mathematics. Blocks of informative material and rules are followed by examples and practice problems.
