Stoner, Melissa A.; Stuby, Kristin T.; Szczepanski, Susan – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2013
Recent research suggests that high-impact activities in science and math classes promote positive attitudinal shifts in students. By implementing high-impact activities, such as designing a school and a skate park, mathematical thinking can be linked to the engineering design process. This hands-on approach, when possible, to demonstrate or…
