Peer reviewedClemens, Stanley R. – Mathematics Teacher, 1985
Several examples of problems involving measurement that occur in the life of a contractor are presented, along with solutions. Several sample measuring activities for students are included, with comments. (MNS)
Descriptors: Learning Activities, Mathematical Applications, Mathematics Instruction, Measurement
Peer reviewedEwbank, William A. – Mathematics Teacher, 1984
Topics for investigation in mathematics classes that arise from the Olympics are discussed. Activities with performance records leading to the development of graphs are illustrated. (MNS)
Descriptors: Graphs, Investigations, Learning Activities, Mathematical Enrichment
Peer reviewedKimberling, Clark – Mathematics Teacher, 1984
The curved intersections of conics with planes are described. Two computer programs are given to enable students to simulate the "explosion" of ellipses into parabolas and then into hyperbolas. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Oriented Programs, Computer Simulation, Geometric Concepts, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedMacKernan, Jonathan – Mathematics in School, 1984
What is encompassed by mechanics is discussed in terms of its use to show the ability of mathematics to model the real world. How and when to include mechanics in teaching mathematics is then illustrated and discussed. (MNS)
Descriptors: Mathematical Applications, Mathematics Curriculum, Mathematics Instruction, Mathematics Materials
Peer reviewedRetzer, Kenneth A. – School Science and Mathematics, 1984
Suggests specific topics in inferential logic which might be incorporated into the geometry course and illustrates how the use of inference schemes may help justify the effectiveness of proof techniques. (MNS)
Descriptors: Geometry, Mathematical Logic, Mathematics Curriculum, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedYeshurun, S. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1976
The problem of grading proofs on examination papers is discussed. The author finds that in many cases students have been taught invalid methods, and he questions whether they should be penalized. (SD)
Descriptors: Deduction, Grading, Induction, Instruction
Rosen, David A. – Mathematics Teaching, 1976
A divisibility test for the number 7 is analyzed, and the general method is considered for other numbers. (DT)
Descriptors: Division, Elementary Secondary Education, Mathematics, Mathematics Education
Peer reviewedCarpenter, Thomas P.; And Others – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1976
This article indicates some needed research suggested from examining NAEP mathematics assessment data. (DT) Aspect of National Assessment (NAEP) dealt with in this document: Results (Interpretation).
Descriptors: Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education, Evaluation, Mathematics Education
Peer reviewedWittmann, Erich – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1976
A study of geometric convexity, where the emphasis is on the gradual organization of a field by mathematizing, is outlined. (DT)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Geometry, Higher Education, Instruction
Peer reviewedvan Barneveld, G. B.; And Others – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1976
The factors influencing a general conception of mathematics education and philosophical basis for mathematics curriculum development are discussed. (DT)
Descriptors: Curriculum Development, Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education, Instruction
Peer reviewedvan Barneveld, G. B.; And Others – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1976
Problems facing curriculum development efforts are discussed, and then a strategy for curriculum development for elementary and secondary school mathematics is outlined. (DT)
Descriptors: Curriculum, Curriculum Development, Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education
