This categorized listing is intended to help those who want a ready reference to research reports on mathematics education. Citations are made to over 3000 studies appearing in journals published in the United States, in DISSERTATION ABSTRACTS or DISSERTATION ABSTRACTS INTERNATIONAL, or in RESEARCH IN EDUCATION between 1964 and 1973. Entries are…

This monograph was developed with the intention of addressing the concerns of high school mathematics teachers in Alberta (Canada) who want to base their programs on problem solving but have questions about effective and efficient ways to do so. Considered are the most basic philosophical questions, and a framework is provided to use in solving…

This is a resource book that indexes all articles published in "The Mathematics Teacher" from 1976-1985 (Volumes 69-78). Entries are indexed alphabetically by author and subject. "The Mathematics Teacher" is a journal devoted to the improvement of mathematics instruction in the junior high schools, high schools, and colleges.…

This paper reviews the research literature on relationships between the integration of microcomputers and students' learning of mathematics in secondary schools. Following a brief introduction and statement of the problem, annotations are provided for 31 studies in the following subject categories: (1) the extent of computer use in secondary…

This annotated bibliography lists research related to mathematics teaching and learning which was published in the United States during 1973. The listing covers the levels K-12, and is divided into three major sections. The first section lists research summaries which review groups of research studies. The second section contains research reports…

This annotated bibliography includes activities with calculators in the areas of computational skills, geometry, measurement, number pattern recognition, and probability. (MK)

Computer awareness and literacy programs for gifted and talented high school students were developed at two Washington City Schools (North Carolina). At Carteret High School, a variety of computer programs were purchased for biology and physics studies, trigonometry and algebra studies, aptitude and merit exam preparation, basic skills math…

This eighth edition of the bibliography reflects changes in emphasis in the secondary school mathematics curriculum. The booklet is addressed primarily to high school students of all ability levels and to their mathematics teachers, and should also be of interest to students and instructors of mathematics in two-year colleges as well as librarians…

A review of studies comparing self-paced individualized programs with other teaching approaches at the secondary and post secondary level is presented in this paper. First, the teaching approaches used and the statistical design employed in the studies are described. Then, the studies are classified as secondary or post secondary, and the results…

These units were developed during the summer of 1987 as one component of a project on "Integrating Problem Solving Into Mathematics Teaching." Each unit has the objective of developing students' thinking abilities in mathematics. These units have been revised subsequent to field try-outs prior to dissemination. The summaries of 56 different…

This bibliography presents 21 references and abstracts for improving mathematics instruction in two ways. The first aim is to serve as a guide in locating higher-order thinking skills material in mathematics; the second is to encourage the integration of higher-order thinking skills techniques into the mathematics curriculum. Entries are included…

Research dealing with specific aspects of individualized mathematics programs is summarized in this paper. Some explanations for the failure of self-pacing to result in superior achievement are examined. Studies dealing with student-teacher interaction in individualized programs are cited. Research with implications for new directions for…

In 1979, a small team at the Landesinstitut Nordrhein-Westfalen Neuss, Federal Republic of Germany, started the Didactical Information Service for Mathematics in School (DID-M). They are developing a series of books containing information on and documentation for the most important mathematics topics for grades 5-10. Chosen as the first of these…

This booklist was designed as a guide for selecting materials for inclusion in a secondary school mathematics library and for identifying new books and periodicals of professional interest to teachers of mathematics. Approximately 925 listings are included, some with annotations; about one-fourth of these are starred to indicate the author's…
