100 + ideas for teaching mathematics.

No sólo ofrece actividades para la clase, sino que promueve una metodología diferente para la enseñanza de las matemáticas y proporciona a los estudiantes nuevas experiencias para descubrir las verdades matemáticas por sí mismos.

Teaching mathematics in the primary school.

Este título da ideas sobre cómo los profesores pueden mejorar la comprensión de las matemáticas en la enseñanza primaria y la capacidad de utilizarlas en una variedad de contextos. Cubre las siguientes áreas: las matemáticas como una materia de enseñanza-aprendizaje, recursos, organización y gestión, evaluación y planificación; la igualdad de oportunidades y necesidades educativas especiales; la coordinación de las matemáticas.

Teaching mathematics : developing as a reflective secondary teacher series.

Publicación para orientar al profesor para realizar una práctica reflexiva de las matemáticas: Pensar en lo que hace y por qué lo hace, qué modelo de enseñanza está utilizando, conocimiento de lo que está intentando conseguir y por qué, cómo se aplica en situaciones específicas de enseñanza, cómo hacer un buen uso de los recursos y cómo evaluar eficazmente los avances de los alumnos para lograr una enseñanza eficaz. Tiene un acceso a un sitio Web donde se pueden encontrar: videos de ejemplos reales de profesores con experiencia, donde se muestran las habilidades que se necesitan para impartir con éxito las lecciones; enlaces a sitios que ofrecen apoyos útiles; planificaciones y recursos materiales.

Teaching mathematics creatively.

Texto que promueve la creatividad como elemento clave para el desarrollo del conocimiento, la comprensión y el disfrute de las matemáticas en la enseñanza primaria. Ofrece una gama de estrategias: contar historias , aprender las matemáticas al aire libre, trabajar con una escala mayor, la música, problemas de investigación y resolución de problemas, que permitan a los profesores a adoptar un enfoque lúdico en la enseñanza de esta materia.

Teaching Mathematics in English to Swedish Speaking Students : A systematic review of strategies for teaching mathematics to second language learners

The Swedish government has authorised the teaching of mathematics in English to Swedish speaking students. Much of that teaching is performed by foreign trained native English speaking teachers lacking training in second language learners. This systematic review summarises international studies from the last ten years that deal with the teaching of mathematics to second language learners. The review shows that second language students working in a bilingual environment achieve higher rates of content and language knowledge than learners in a monolingual environment. This study also summarises some of the teacher practices that are effective for teaching mathematics in English to second language learners.

Teaching Mathematics in English to Swedish Speaking Students : The Use of Second Language Teaching Practices in the Teaching of Mathematics in English to Swedish Speaking Students in Lower Secondary School

Over 20,000 Swedish lower high school students are currently learning mathematics in English but little research has been conducted in this area. This study looks into the question of how much second language learner training teachers teaching mathematics in English to Swedish speaking students have acquired and how many of those teachers are using effective teaching practices for second language learners. The study confirms earlier findings that report few teachers receive training in second language learning but indicates that some of the teaching practices shown to be effective with second language learners are being used in some Swedish schools

Planning and teaching mathematics lessons as a dynamic, interactive process

We are researching actions that teachers can take to improve mathematics learning for all students, with particular attention to specific groups of students who might experience difficulty. After identifying possible barriers to learning, we offered teachers mathematics lessons structured in a particular way. Teachers’ use of the model outlined in this paper seemed productive and their resulting planning and teaching proved to be dynamic and interactive. This paper uses excerpts from a conversation between two teachers to illustrate specific aspects of the model.

Teaching mathematics using the internet

This paper examines teachers' use of the Internet in the teaching and learning of Mathematics. The study draws upon data collected via an online survey and interviews with six teachers. It reports on their beliefs, strategies for use and their perceptions on how it impacts on students and their learning of mathematics. Some comparisons are made between the ways teachers used the Internet.

Establishing a new paradigm for teaching mathematics at engineering schools

This paper analyzes an ideal model of teaching, thinking after 5-10 years in Universities in the world. We propose the collaborative work for a fruitful learning. According with that, we expose some of our previous projects in this area and some ideas for the ?global education?, focused on the teaching and learning of mathematics to engineering students. Furthermore we explain some of our initiatives for implementing the "Bologna process?. Aspects related to the learning and assessments will be analyzed. The establishment of the new teaching paradigm has to change the learning process and we will suggest some possible initiatives for adapting the learning to the new model. The paper ends by collecting some conclusions.
