Moving Beyond Myths: Revitalizing Undergraduate Mathematics

Committee on the Mathematical Sciences in the Year 2000, National Research Council Over the next decade, the mathematical community and the nation's colleges and universities must restructure fundamentally the culture, content, and context of undergraduate mathematics. Acknowledging the weaknesses in the present college mathematics curriculum and the ways in which it is taught, this book cites exemplary programs that point the way toward achieving the same world-wide preeminence for mathematics education that the United States enjoys in mathematical research. "Moving Beyond Myths" sets forth ambitious goals for collegiate mathematics by the year 2000 and provides a sweeping plan of action to accomplish them. It calls on mathematics faculty, their departments, their professional societies, colleges and universities, and government agencies to do their parts to implement the plan, help the public move beyond commonly held myths about mathematics, and bring about a revitalization of undergraduate mathematics.

Proofs From the Book

Martin Aigner, Gunter M. Ziegler From the reviews of the first edition:

"Anyone who enjoys the logic and reasoning of mathematics and has a strong undergraduate mathematics background should enjoy this book...I would imagine that few mathematicians have seen all these proofs. The combination of ideas in many of the proofs should delight mathematicians everywhere." - MAA ONLINE

The (mathematical) heroes of this book are "perfect proofs": brilliant ideas, clever connections and wonderful observations that bring new insight and surprising perspectives on basic and challenging problems from number theory, geometry, analysis, combinatorics, and graph theory. Thirty beautiful examples are presented here. They are candidates for THE BOOK in which God records the perfect proofs - according to the late Paul Erdös, who suggested many of the topics in this collection. The result is a book which will be fun for everybody with an interest in mathematics, requiring only a very modest (undergraduate) mathematical background. For this revised and expanded second edition several chapters have been revised and expanded, and three new chapters have been added.

Navigating Through Measurement In Grades 9-12

Masha Albrecht, Maurice J. Burke, Wade Ellis, Dan Kennedy, Evan M. Maletsky, Maurice Joseph Burke Throughout history, the need for more sophisticated measurements has led to the discovery of more sophisticated mathematics. This book highlights this important idea in activities that help students explore an array of measurement strategies and techniques. Investigations probe ancient methods for performing such tasks as measuring the speed of ships at sea and estimating the distance of the sun from the earth. Students apply simple formulas to measure complex shapes, explore iterative processes that lead to measurement formulas, and develop an original formula for measuring the size of a tree. They also discover how to use advanced technology to make measurements and mathematical models of complex real-world phenomena. The supplemental CD-ROM features interactive electronic activities, master copies of activity pages for students, and additional readings for teachers.

How to Study as a Mathematics Major

Lara Alcock Every year, thousands of students declare mathematics as their major. Many are extremely intelligent and hardworking. However, even the best will encounter challenges, because upper-level mathematics involves not only independent study and learning from lectures, but also a fundamental shift from calculation to proof.

This shift is demanding but it need not be mysterious — research has revealed many insights into the mathematical thinking required, and this book translates these into practical advice for a student audience. It covers every aspect of studying as a mathematics major, from tackling abstract intellectual challenges to interacting with professors and making good use of study time. Part 1 discusses the nature of upper-level mathematics, and explains how students can adapt and extend their existing skills in order to develop good understanding. Part 2 covers study skills as these relate to mathematics, and suggests practical approaches to learning effectively while enjoying undergraduate life.

As the first mathematics-specific study guide, this friendly, practical text is essential reading for any mathematics major.

Filling in The Blanks: Standardized Testing and the Black-White Achievement Gap

Keena Arbuthnot A volume in Contemporary Perspectives in Race and Ethnic Relations Series Editors:M. Christopher Brown II, Alcorn State University and T. Elon Dancy II, University of Oklahoma Filling in the Blanks is a book dedicated to helping policymakers, researchers, academics and teachers, better understand standardized testing and the Black-White achievement gap. This book provides a wealth of background information, as well as the most recent findings, about testing and measurement concepts essential to understanding standardized tests. The book then reviews theories and research that has been conducted which explain the differences in performance between Black and White test takers on many standardized tests. Most notably, Filling in the Blanks presents several new theories that address why Black students do not perform as well as their White counterparts. These theories present very novel and innovative perspectives to understanding these test performance differences. The book ends with a host of recommendations that are intended to address the concerns and questions of several stakeholder groups. . The series centers on volumes that treat race and ethnicity in conjunction or parallel with social sciences, human studies, public policy, and/or education and that disseminate ideas and strategies useful for various communities against a backdrop of race and/or ethnicity in America. Books in this series foreground novel thinking about race and ethnicity, important policy/praxis issues, developing trends and responses across society, and the concerns of public and/or institutional constituencies. To the extent possible, books in the series explore the interconnection of multiple perspectives, while concurrently articulating implications resultant from the intersections of race/ethnicity (i.e. gender, class, sexual orientation, creed, ability). Each volume investigates one or more critical topics missing from the extant literature, and engages one or more theoretical perspectives.

Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom

Thomas Armstrong "To respect the many differences between people"—this is what Howard Gardner says is the purpose of learning about multiple intelligences (MI). Now, in the 2nd edition of "Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom," Thomas Armstrong has updated his best-selling practical guide for educators, to incorporate new research from Gardner and others. Gardner's original studies suggested that the mind comprises seven intelligences—linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal.

This new edition includes information on the eighth intelligence (the naturalist), a chapter on a possible ninth intelligence (the existential), and updated information and resources throughout the text to help educators at all levels apply MI theory to curriculum development, lesson planning, assessment, special education, cognitive skills, educational technology, career development, educational policy, and more. The book includes dozens of practical tips, strategies, and examples from real schools and districts—as well as solid outcomes of MI, including improved test scores and discipline. Armstrong provides tools, resources, and ideas that educators can immediately use to help students of all ages achieve their fullest potential in life.

Thomas Armstrong, an educator and psychologist from Sonoma County, California, has more than 27 years of teaching experience, from the primary through the doctoral level. He is the author of two other ASCD books, "Awakening Genius in the Classroom" and "ADD/ADHD Alternatives in the Classroom."

Error Patterns in Computation: Using Error Patterns to Improve Instruction

Robert B. Ashlock Reflecting many of the concerns of NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, the ninth edition of Error Patterns in Computation is the only book available that assists teachers with identifying typical error patterns, receiving feedback on their diagnosis, and gaining insight regarding why a child may have adopted an incorrect procedure. Two major causes of error patterns - over-generalizing and over-specializing - are discussed. Simple and well organized, this book explains common errors students make in computation in every math operation and with whole numbers, rational numbers, geometry and algebra. This book is an ideal resource for teachers of mathematics in education or special education at the elementary or middle school level.

Starting Our Careers

Curtis D. Bennett, Annalisa Crannell ``If you are the reader we envision for this book, you have just passed through the most crucial stage of your career—writing and defending your doctoral thesis in mathematics—only to discover what lies ahead is, yet again, the most crucial stage of your career: making the choice about what job to take ... It is the time when you make the adjustment from studying in a research institution to earning your keep in industry or academia ... It is the time when you will or will not publish your thesis ... when you will decide to leave research behind or to start new mathematics independently ... or when you will struggle to balance time for students and committees with time in the library ... This book was written largely by people like you ... '' —from the Introduction This ``how-to'' book addresses all aspects of a young mathematician's early career development: How do I get good letters of recommendation? How do I apply for a grant? How do I do research in a small department that has no one in my field? How do I do anything meaningful if all I can get is a series of one-year jobs? These articles paint a broad portrait of current professional development issues of interest from the Young Mathematician's Network—from finding jobs to organizing special sessions. There are chapters on applying for positions, working in industry and in academia, starting and publishing research, writing grant proposals, applying for tenure, and becoming involved in the academic community. The book offers timely and sound advice offered by recent doctorates through experienced mathematicians. The material originally appeared in the electronic pages of Concerns of Young Mathematicians. The book is devoted exclusively to the early stages of a mathematical career.

A Source Book in Classical Analysis

Garrett Birkhoff An understanding of the developments in classical analysis during the nineteenth century is vital to a full appreciation of the history of twentieth-century mathematical thought. It was during the nineteenth century that the diverse mathematical formulae of the eighteenth century were systematized and the properties of functions of real and complex variables clearly distinguished; and it was then that the calculus matured into the rigorous discipline of today, becoming in the process a dominant influence on mathematics and mathematical physics.

This Source Book, a sequel to D. J. Struik's Source Book in Mathematics, 1200-1800, draws together more than eighty selections from the writings of the most influential mathematicians of the period. Thirteen chapters, each with an introduction by the editor, highlight the major developments in mathematical thinking over the century. All material is in English, and great care has been taken to maintain a high standard of accuracy both in translation and in transcription. Of particular value to historians and philosophers of science, the Source Book should serve as a vital reference to anyone seeking to understand the roots of twentieth-century mathematical thought.

High School Mathematics at Work: Essays and Examples for the Education of All Students

Mathematical Sciences Education Board, National Research Council Staff Traditionally, vocational mathematics and precollege mathematics have been separate in schools. But the technological world in which today's students will work and live calls for increasing connection between mathematics and its applications. Workplace-based mathematics may be good mathematics for everyone. "High School Mathematics at Work" illuminates the interplay between technical and academic mathematics. This collection of thought-provoking essays - by mathematicians, educators, and other experts - is enhanced with illustrative tasks from workplace and everyday contexts that suggest ways to strengthen high school mathematical education.This important book addresses how to make mathematical education of all students meaningful - how to meet the practical needs of students entering the work force after high school as well as the needs of students going on to postsecondary education. The short readable essays frame basic issues, provide background, and suggest alternatives to the traditional separation between technical and academic mathematics. They are accompanied by intriguing multipart problems that illustrate how deep mathematics functions in everyday settings - from analysis of ambulance response times to energy utilization, from buying a used car to 'rounding off' to simplify problems. The book addresses the role of standards in mathematics education, discussing issues such as finding common ground between science and mathematics education standards, improving the articulation from school to work, and comparing SAT results across settings.Experts discuss how to develop curricula so that students learn to solve problems they are likely to encounter in life - while also providing them with approaches to unfamiliar problems. The book also addresses how teachers can help prepare students for postsecondary education. For teacher education the book explores the changing nature of pedagogy and new approaches to teacher development. What kind of teaching will allow mathematics to be a guide rather than a gatekeeper to many career paths?Essays discuss pedagogical implication in problem-centered teaching, the role of complex mathematical tasks in teacher education, and the idea of making open-ended tasks - and the student work they elicit - central to professional discourse. "High School Mathematics at Work" presents thoughtful views from experts. It identifies rich possibilities for teaching mathematics and preparing students for the technological challenges of the future. This book will inform and inspire teachers, teacher educators, curriculum developers, and others involved in improving mathematics education and the capabilities of tomorrow's work force.

Politics by Other Means: Higher Education and Group Thinking

Professor David Bromwich Liberal education has been under siege. Far-right ideologies in journalism and government have pressed for a uniform curriculum that focuses on the achievements of Western culture. Partisans of the academic left, who hold our culture responsible for the evils of society, have attempted to redress imbalances by fostering multiculturalism in education. In this book, David Bromwich criticises these positions and calls for a return to the tradition of independent thinking that he contends has been betrayed by both left and right. Under the guise of educational reform, says David Bromwich, these groups are in fact engaging in politics by other means.

The Art of Problem Posing

Stephen I. Brown Updated and expanded, this second edition satisfies the same philosophical objective as the first — to show the importance of problem posing.

Special features include:

* an exploration ofthe logical relationship between problem posing and problem solving

* a special chapter devoted to teaching problem posing as a separate course

* sketches, drawings, diagrams, and cartoons that illustrate the schemes proposed

* a special section on writing in mathematics

How Round Is Your Circle?: Where Engineering and Mathematics Meet

John Bryant, Chris Sangwin How do you draw a straight line? How do you determine if a circle is really round? These may sound like simple or even trivial mathematical problems, but to an engineer the answers can mean the difference between success and failure. How Round Is Your Circle? invites readers to explore many of the same fundamental questions that working engineers deal with every day—it's challenging, hands-on, and fun.

John Bryant and Chris Sangwin illustrate how physical models are created from abstract mathematical ones. Using elementary geometry and trigonometry, they guide readers through paper-and-pencil reconstructions of mathematical problems and show them how to construct actual physical models themselves—directions included. It's an effective and entertaining way to explain how applied mathematics and engineering work together to solve problems, everything from keeping a piston aligned in its cylinder to ensuring that automotive driveshafts rotate smoothly. Intriguingly, checking the roundness of a manufactured object is trickier than one might think. When does the width of a saw blade affect an engineer's calculations—or, for that matter, the width of a physical line? When does a measurement need to be exact and when will an approximation suffice? Bryant and Sangwin tackle questions like these and enliven their discussions with many fascinating highlights from engineering history. Generously illustrated, How Round Is Your Circle? reveals some of the hidden complexities in everyday things.

Mathematics Learning Study Committee, National Research Council, Jeremy Kilpatrick, Jane Swafford, Bradford Findell "Adding it Up" explores how students in pre-K through 8th grade learn mathematics and recommends how teaching, curricula, and teacher education should change to improve mathematics learning during these critical years. The committee identifies five interdependent components of mathematical proficiency and describes how students develop this proficiency. With examples and illustrations, the book presents a portrait of mathematics learning: research findings on what children know about numbers by the time they arrive in pre-K and the implications for mathematics instruction; and details on the processes by which students acquire mathematical proficiency with whole numbers, rational numbers, and integers, as well as beginning algebra, geometry, measurement, and probability and statistics. The committee discusses what is known from research about teaching for mathematics proficiency, focusing on the interactions between teachers and students around educational materials and how teachers develop proficiency in teaching mathematics.

The Color of Success: Race And High-achieving Urban Youth

Gilberto Q. Conchas Through students’ own voices and perspectives, this book reveals how and why some racial minorities achieve academic success, despite limited opportunity. Based on the experiences of Black, Latino, and Vietnamese urban high school students, the author provides a revealing comparative analysis that offers insight into how schools can create opportunities and safe learning environments where youth acquire real goals, expectations, and tangible pathways for success. Offering alternatives to current practices and structures of inequality that plague educational systems throughout the nation, this sociologically informed book:

* Takes a rare look at urban school success stories, instead of those depicting failure.
* Explores the social processes that enable racial minority youth to escape the unequal structures of urban schooling to perform well in school.
* Focuses on youth’s interpretations and reactions to the schooling process to determine how schools can empower youth and promote the social mobility of low-income urban populations.

Teaching Number Sense, Grade 1

Chris Confer This title is part of a three-book Teaching Number Sense series that focuses on the critical role that number sense plays in developing mathematical understanding. Number sense encompasses a wide range of abilities, including being able to make reasonable estimates and to think and reason flexibly. These lessons help students develop good number intuition and the ability to see numbers as tools, not barriers. By encouraging young children to reason their way to solutions, teachers help students form a solid foundation upon which all of their later mathematical understanding will be built.

Lessons in this book are organized in an accessible, easy-to-read format that includes an overview, a materials list, the lesson duration, step-by-step teaching directions, and vignettes of how the lesson actually unfolded in a classroom. Each lesson concludes with a list of assessment questions to help guide teacher observations. In this book, children build their understanding of counting, number relationships, and landmark numbers. They also develop computation strategies, further their understanding of composing and decomposing numbers, and develop a beginning sense of place value.

The Book of Numbers

John H. Conway, Richard Guy In THE BOOK OF NUMBERS, two famous mathematicians fascinated by beautiful and intriguing number patterns share their insights and discoveries with each other and with readers. John Conway is the showman, master of mathematical games and flamboyant presentations; Richard Guy is the encyclopedist, always on top of problems waiting to be solved. Together they show us why patterns and properties of numbers have captivated mathematicians and non-mathematicians alike for centuries. THE BOOK OF NUMBERS features Conway and Guy's favorite stories about all the kinds of numbers any of us is likely to encounter, and many others besides. "Our aim," the authors write, "is to bring to the inquisitive reader. . .an explanation of the many ways the word 'number' is used." They explore patterns that emerge in arithmetic, algebra, and geometry, describe these pattern' relevance both inside and outside mathematics, and introduce the strange worlds of complex, transcendental, and surreal numbers. This unique book brings together facts, pictures and stories about numbers in a way that no one but an extraordinarily talented pair of mathematician/writers could do.

What Is Mathematics? An Elementary Approach to Ideas and Methods

Richard Courant, Herbert Robbins, Ian Stewart "A lucid representation of the fundamental concepts and methods of the whole field of mathematics. It is an easily understandable introduction for the layman and helps to give the mathematical student a general view of the basic principles and methods."—Albert Einstein (on the first edition)

For more than two thousand years a familiarity with mathematics has been regarded as an indispensable part of the intellectual equipment of every cultured person. Today, unfortunately, the traditional place of mathematics in education is in grave danger. The teaching and learning of mathematics has degenerated into the realm of rote memorization, the outcome of which leads to satisfactory formal ability but not to real understanding or greater intellectual independence. This new edition of Richard Courant's and Herbert Robbins's classic work seeks to address this problem. Its goal is to put the meaning back into mathematics.

Written for beginners and scholars, for students and teachers, for philosophers and engineers, What is Mathematics?, Second Edition is a sparkling collection of mathematical gems that offers an entertaining and accessible portrait of the mathematical world. Covering everything from natural numbers and the number system to geometrical constructions and projective geometry, from topology and calculus to matters of principle and the Continuum Hypothesis, this fascinating survey allows readers to delve into mathematics as an organic whole rather than an empty drill in problem solving. With chapters largely independent of one another and sections that lead upward from basic to more advanced discussions, readers can easily pick and choose areas of particular interest without impairing their understanding of subsequent parts. Brought up to date with a new chapter by Ian Stewart, What is Mathematics, Second Edition offers new insights into recent mathematical developments and describes proofs of the Four-Color Theorem and Fermat's Last Theorem, problems that were still open when Courant and Robbins wrote this masterpiece, but ones that have since been solved.

Formal mathematics is like spelling and grammar: a matter of the correct application of local rules. Meaningful mathematics is like journalism: it tells an interesting story. But unlike some journalism, the story has to be true. The best mathematics is like literature: it brings a story to life before your eyes and involves you in it, intellectually and emotionally. What is Mathematics is a marvelously literate story: it opens a window onto the world of mathematics for anyone interested to view.

Learning Modern Algebra: From Early Attempts to Prove Fermat's Last Theorem

Al Cuoco, Joseph J. Rotman Learning Modern Algebra aligns with the CBMS Mathematical Education of Teachers II recommendations, in both content and practice. It emphasizes rings and fields over groups, and it makes explicit connections between the ideas of abstract algebra and the mathematics used by high school teachers. It provides opportunities for prospective and practicing teachers to experience mathematics for themselves, before the formalities are developed, and it is explicit about the mathematical habits of mind that lie beneath the definitions and theorems.

This book is designed for prospective and practicing high school mathematics teachers, but it can serve as a text for standard abstract algebra courses as well. The presentation is organized historically: the Babylonians introduced Pythagorean triples to teach the Pythagorean theorem; these were classified by Diophantus, and eventually this led Fermat to conjecture his Last Theorem. The text shows how much of modern algebra arose in attempts to prove this; it also shows how other important themes in algebra arose from questions related to teaching. Indeed, modern algebra is a very useful tool for teachers, with deep connections to the actual content of high school mathematics, as well as to the mathematics teachers use in their profession that doesn't necessarily "end up on the blackboard."

The focus is on number theory, polynomials, and commutative rings. Group theory is introduced near the end of the text to explain why generalizations of the quadratic formula do not exist for polynomials of high degree, allowing the reader to appreciate the more general work of Galois and Abel on roots of polynomials. Results and proofs are motivated with specific examples whenever possible, so that abstractions emerge from concrete experience. Applications range from the theory of repeating decimals to the use of imaginary quadratic fields to construct problems with rational solutions. While such applications are integrated throughout, each chapter also contains a section giving explicit connections between the content of the chapter and high school teaching.

Fires in the Bathroom: Advice for Teachers from High School Students

Kathleen Cushman, Lisa Delpit The acclaimed book of practical advice from students to their teachers.

Since its initial publication in hardcover in 2003, Fires in the Bathroom has been through multiple printings and received the attention of teachers across the country. Now in paperback, Kathleen Cushman's groundbreaking book offers original insights into teaching teenagers in today's hard-pressed urban high schools from the point of view of the students themselves. It speaks to both new and established teachers, giving them firsthand information about who their students are and what they need to succeed.

Students from across the country contributed perceptive and pragmatic answers to questions of how teachers can transcend the barriers of adolescent identity and culture to reach the diverse student body in today's urban schools. With the fresh and often surprising perspectives of youth, they tackle tough issues such as increasing engagement and motivation, teaching difficult academic material, reaching English-language learners, and creating a classroom culture where respect and success go hand in hand.

How to Succeed in College Mathematics

Richard M. Dahlke How to Succeed in College Mathematics (A Guide for the College Mathematics Student) is an original and valuable "resource book" for college undergraduate mathematics students in a field absolutely devoid of any comparable guide. It addresses comprehensively, authoritatively, and authentically the issues students face in college mathematics. The ideas in this guide, grounded in research and experience, could very well keep students from receiving an undesirable grade, dropping a course, changing an area of concentration, or dropping out of college. This book will help students realize fully the mathematics potential that lies within them.

There are many gems of wisdom for the struggling to the strong college mathematics student. Students will find out how to: improve as problem solvers, manage assignments, determine if they have course prerequisites, write mathematics, work with symbolic form, read their textbooks, get the most out of class, make the most of their learning styles, work with classmates, select and work with instructors, whether to drop a course, retake a course, decrease procrastination and anxiety, increase confidence and motivation, prepare for and take examinations, and manage time, a job, and scheduling of courses.

The primary organization of the book is this: A key topic is presented in a thorough way, and is often referenced again when related topics are presented in thorough ways. Hence, this spiraling effect reinforces knowledge of the topic. The book has an extensive table of contents and index, clearly revealing the issues that are discussed and where they can be found. Chapters may be related to each other, but they stand alone. Hence, readers can begin to read at virtually any place in the book, and move back and forth to chapters or sections of interest to them.

Support for the relevance of the learning and study issues discussed includes: remarks from successful college mathematics students on what worked for them in their college mathematics courses, and from unsuccessful college mathematics students on what did not work for them; statements by college mathematic students, which came from their free responses to questions on forms used to evaluate their instructors and courses; suggestions from experienced college mathematics instructors on issues they believe need to be addressed; the formal academic training, research activities, and extensive college teaching experience of the author in mathematics and mathematics education.

This resource is not only valuable for college mathematics students, but also for high students intending to take college mathematics, college and high school preservice and inservice mathematics instructors, and college and high school counselors and other academic support personnel.

The book is more than an introduction to learning mathematics. It is also about learning how to learn, and becoming a successful college student in general. Success in mathematics means more than receiving a good course grade; therefore, any student can learn what his or her deficiencies are and how to overcome them.

If you find a better resource book for undergraduate mathematics students (and instructors), buy it! And let us know about it. Because right now there is simply nothing else out there.

The Mathematical Experience, Study Edition

Philip J. Davis, Reuben Hersh, Elena Anne Marchisotto Mathematics has been a human activity for thousands of years. Yet only a few people from the vast population of users are professional mathematicians, who create, teach, foster, and apply it in a variety of situations. The authors of this book believe that it should be possible for these professional mathematicians to explain to non-professionals what they do, what they say they are doing, and why the world should support them at it. They also believe that mathematics should be taught to non-mathematics majors in such a way as to instill an appreciation of the power and beauty of mathematics. Many people from around the world have told the authors that they have done precisely that with the first edition and they have encouraged publication of this revised edition complete with exercises for helping students to demonstrate their understanding.

This edition of the book should find a new generation of general readers and students who would like to know what mathematics is all about. It will prove invaluable as a course text for a general mathematics appreciation course, one in which the student can combine an appreciation for the esthetics with some satisfying and revealing applications.

Taking Inventory: The Role of Context, Grade K-1

Maarten Dolk, Catherine Twomey Fosnot In their Young Mathematicians at Work series, Catherine Twomey Fosnot and Maarten Dolk described Mathematics in the City, an innovative project where teachers helped young children construct a deep understanding of number and operations in a math workshop environment. Now they and two colleagues from the project have developed a 21st-century approach that provides pre- and inservice teachers with an interactive, video-based, digital context for inquiry into the teaching and learning of mathematics.

Designed for workshop participants and preservice teachers, the Taking Inventory CD-ROM offers users a multi-media learning environment for professional development on topics ranging from instruction to assessment, that stimulates action, reflection, and discussion with dynamic video clips, children's work samples, and interviews with students and teachers.

In Taking Inventory, K-1 students inventory materials in their classroom, along the way, developing number sense, counting strategies, and the big ideas underpinning place value. The CD-ROM helps teachers examine children's numeric thinking; investigate their strategies; and analyze how they model their world mathematically.

Users also study teachers at work: designing rich contexts for problem-solving; drawing connections between mathematical ideas and strategies; and developing a vibrant mathematical community. System Requirements for CD-ROMWindows/PC

Teaching Tips: Innovations in Undergraduate Science Instruction

Marvin Druger, Eleanor D. Siebert, Linda W. Crow Like a spirited idea exchange among experienced professors, Teaching Tips: Innovations in Undergraduate Science Instruction brings you the best thinking from campuses nationwide about how to engage undergraduate science students. Published to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Society for College Science Teachers (SCST), Tips is a quick-read compilation of more than 50 innovative approaches that SCST members have found especially effective.

The book is organized into three parts:
• Pedagogical Practices includes using instant messaging as an involvement tool, encouraging active learning in large classes, and using “peer coercion” to stimulate teamwork
• Assessment Activities covers pretests and post-tests to encourage more effective learning, Web-based warm-up exercises to assess student misconceptions, and poetry-writing exercises to encourage creative thinking in the sciences
• Content Challenges offers approaches to teaching specific topics from calculations and conversions to conceptual physics, and ways to encourage active learning (using a portfolio approach, games like bingo and Jeopardy, substances like Jell-O, and even student-drawn comic strips)

Most of the ideas in the book are applicable across the sciences. Because the tips are only 500 to 700 words each, all contributors have provided contact information so you can learn more by e-mailing them directly.

The Art of Critical Pedagogy: Possibilities for Moving from Theory to Practice in Urban Schools

Jeffrey M. Duncan-Andrade, Ernest Morrell This book furthers the discussion concerning critical pedagogy and its practical applications for urban contexts. It addresses two looming, yet under-explored questions that have emerged with the ascendancy of critical pedagogy in the educational discourse: (1) What does critical pedagogy look like in work with urban youth? and (2) How can a systematic investigation of critical work enacted in urban contexts simultaneously draw upon and push the core tenets of critical pedagogy? Addressing the tensions inherent in enacting critical pedagogy Â—between working to disrupt and to successfully navigate oppressive institutionalized structures, and between the practice of critical pedagogy and the current standards-driven climateÂ—The Art of Critical Pedagogy seeks to generate authentic internal and external dialogues among educators in search of texts that offer guidance for teaching for a more socially just world.

What a Coach Can Teach a Teacher: Lessons Urban Schools Can Learn from a Successful Sports Program

Jeffrey M.R. Duncan-Andrade There is very little research and writing done by urban educators to document effective practices in urban schools. In response, this book has been written by a long-time urban classroom teacher and coach to provide insight into effective program building and educational practices. The book rejects the up-by-your-bootstraps theory of success, offering in its place a set of concrete strategies to teachers and educational leaders who are committed to fundamentally rethinking the business-as-usual approach which continues to fail urban school children. This book is well-suited for classes working with educational leaders, classroom teachers, sports coaches, and educational researchers.

An Introduction to Mathematical Reasoning

Peter J. Eccles This book eases students into the rigors of university mathematics. The emphasis is on understanding and constructing proofs and writing clear mathematics. The author achieves this by exploring set theory, combinatorics, and number theory, topics that include many fundamental ideas and may not be a part of a young mathematician's toolkit. This material illustrates how familiar ideas can be formulated rigorously, provides examples demonstrating a wide range of basic methods of proof, and includes some of the all-time-great classic proofs. The book presents mathematics as a continually developing subject. Material meeting the needs of readers from a wide range of backgrounds is included. The over 250 problems include questions to interest and challenge the most able student but also plenty of routine exercises to help familiarize the reader with the basic ideas.

The Number Devil: A Mathematical Adventure

Hans Magnus Enzensberger The international best-seller that makes mathematics a thrilling exploration.

In twelve dreams, Robert, a boy who hates math, meets a Number Devil, who leads him to discover the amazing world of numbers: infinite numbers, prime numbers, Fibonacci numbers, numbers that magically appear in triangles, and numbers that expand without . As we dream with him, we are taken further and further into mathematical theory, where ideas eventually take flight, until everyone-from those who fumble over fractions to those who solve complex equations in their heads-winds up marveling at what numbers can do.

Hans Magnus Enzensberger is a true polymath, the kind of superb intellectual who loves thinking and marshals all of his charm and wit to share his passions with the world. In The Number Devil, he brings together the surreal logic of Alice in Wonderland and the existential geometry of Flatland with the kind of math everyone would love, if only they had a number devil to teach it to them.

Learning math in cooperative groups can be a great morale booster, and these activities will keep students engaged in math all year long.

Get It Together: Math Problems for Groups Grades 4-12

Tim Erickson

You don't have to learn math by yourself! Solving problems in groups is exciting, effective, and equitableit helps all students succeed in math. Get It Together is a collection of over 100 mathematics problems for groups of 26 students. The problems cover a wide range of math topics such as logic, functions, algebra, geometry, measurement, and number patterns at various levels of difficulty. Each problem has the same format: six clue cards provide the information needed to solve a problem. Since each member of the group has a different bit of information, everyone works together to arrive at a solution. In one problem, only some people get sick after eating a potluck meal. Was it the swamp chicken, the cheesecake, or something else? The group collaborates to discover which food was the culprit. This book is an excellent resource with teacher information on cooperative groups, assessment, problem solving and the use of manipulatives.

The Overland Trail Teacher's Guide, Interactive Mathematics Program

Dan Fendel, Diane Resek, Lynne Alper, Sherry Fraser The Interactive Mathematics Program (IMP) has created a four-year problem-based mathematics curriculum for high school students.

Working with funding from the National Science Foundation, authors Dan Fendel and Diane Resek of San Francisco State University and mathematics educators Lynne Alper and Sherry Fraser have designed the curriculum to meet the needs of both college-bound and non-college-bound students. They have taken advantage of new research on effective teaching strategies that deemphasize lecture formats and promote teaching for understanding.

Five units make up IMP Year 1: Patterns, The Game of Pig, The Overland Trail, The Pit and the Pendulum, and Shadows. The student book contains materials for all five units; however, the teacher's guides are individually bound.

This unit looks at the mid-nineteenth century western migration across the United States in terms of the many linear relationships involved. These relationships grow out of the study of planning what to take on the 2,400-mile trek, estimating the cost of the move, and studying rates of consumption and of travel.

Students construct mathematical models and draw graphs by hand and with a graphing calculator. They interpret graphs in terms of the "stories" the graphs tell, and create graphs from "stories." They write algebraic expressions that represent situations, use manipulatives to represent variables, and solve systems of equations using graphs made by hand and by graphing calculator. In the process of graphing equations, they see the need to solve equations for one variable in terms of another, and learn techniques for doing so.

The Game of Pig

Dan Fenel The Interactive Mathematics Program (IMP) has created a four-year problem-based mathematics curriculum for high school students.

Working with funding from the National Science Foundation, authors Dan Fendel and Diane Resek of San Francisco State University and mathematics educators Lynne Alper and Sherry Fraser have designed the curriculum to meet the needs of both college-bound and non-college-bound students. They have taken advantage of new research on effective teaching strategies that deemphasize lecture formats and promote teaching for understanding.

Five units make up IMP Year 1: Patterns, The Game of Pig, The Overland Trail, The Pit and the Pendulum, and Shadows.

A probability game called Pig forms the core of this unit. Playing and analyzing Pig involves students in a wide variety of mathematical activities, designed to find an optimal strategy for playing the game. In order to find a good strategy, students work with the concept of expected value and develop a mathematical analysis of the game based on an area model for probability.

Probabilistic thinking frequently runs counter to our intuitions. Students' belief in luck is terribly persistent; it takes a great deal of experience before they become willing to base their predictions on probabilistic notions. The gambler's fallacy-that the next roll of the dice depends on previous rolls-is held with conviction even by well-informed adults. One goal of this unit is for students to recognize this fallacy, both in dice games and in real-life situations. More broadly, they will come to understand theoretical probability, and see how and when it can be used to model and give insight into situations that occur every day.

Calculus: Concepts and Applications

Paul A. Foerster The acclaimed Calculus: Concepts and Applications is now available in a new edition, revised to reflect important changes in the Advanced Placement curriculum, and updated to incorporate feedback from instructors throughout the U.S.

With over 40 years of experience teaching AP Calculus, Paul Foerster developed Calculus: Concepts and Applications with the high school student in mind, but with all the content of a college-level course. Like the previous edition, the second edition follows the AP Calculus curriculum for both AB and BC levels.

In Calculus: Concepts and Applications, students start off with calculus! Review of precalculus occurs at various points when it?s needed. The text combines graphing-calculator technology with a unique, real-world application approach, and presents calculus as a study of just four fundamental concepts: limits, derivatives, definite integrals, and indefinite integrals. Students learn these concepts using algebraic, numerical, graphical, and verbal approaches. As a result, students with a wider range of abilities can be successful in calculus, not just those who are strong in algebra. The accompanying set of Explorations in the Instructor?s Resource Book, designed for cooperative group work, gives students hands-on experience with new topics before they are formally introduced.

In this new edition, derivatives of transcendental functions, related rates, as well as area and volume applications of the definite integral are introduced earlier. Additionally, the Instructor?s Resource Book includes projects utilizing the CBL?, The Geometer?s Sketchpad ", and Fathom Dynamic Statistics? software, giving students extended opportunities to explore and understand calculus in depth.

[contains] solutions to almost all problems; methodological notes for the teacher ... developed for a peculiarly Russian institution (the mathematical circle), but easily adapted to American teachers' needs, both inside and outside the classroom." —from the Translator's notes What kind of book is this? It is a book produced by a remarkable cultural circumstance in the former Soviet Union which fostered the creation of groups of students, teachers, and mathematicians called "mathematical circles". The work is predicated on the idea that studying mathematics can generate the same enthusiasm as playing a team sport—without necessarily being competitive. This book is intended for both students and teachers who love mathematics and want to study its various branches beyond the limits of school curriculum. It is also a book of mathematical recreations and, at the same time, a book containing vast theoretical and problem material in main areas of what authors consider to be "extracurricular mathematics". The book is based on a unique experience gained by several generations of Russian educators and scholars.

Teaching Secondary Mathematics Through Applications

Herbert Fremont

Mathematics Observed.

Hans Freudenthal Numbers and diagrams may well be older than letter-alphabets as aids to human reasoning. Yet despite this, mathematics is often denied the discussion and analysis of first principles which would be fundamental to the study of word-subjects at any level; conversely, its value as an academic discipline unrelated to actual practice may have been exaggerated. Numerical theory, space relationships, the nature of our mathematical reasoning are not generally thought to lie within the layman's grasp - or where they are offered to him it is usually in the guise of curiosities or party tricks. The seven self-contained chapter of Professor Freudenthal's book offer a glimpse into the mathematician's workshop. They hold a good deal of high-level mathematics, but nothing that cannot be followed from the clear, practical applications taken from daily life which are his starting and finishing points. Thus, ideas of space orientation concern the "righthandedness" of a corkscrew; theories of surveying and topology involve tunnel building attempts on Samos in the sixth century B.C., or how the roundness of the earth can be expressed without reference to astronomical points. Present and ancient systems of numbers and their bases lead to the theory of electronic calculators, while an introduction to protein synthesis puts before the reader various factors in the genetic code of life which biochemists are now trying to formulate. At all times particular attention is given to the interaction of mathematics and its logic with aspects of human activity which remain unchanged over the centuries and which arise from mans curiosity and needs. Hans Freudenthal is Professor of Theoretical and Applied Mathematics at the University of Utrecht.

The Unschooled Mind: How Children Think And How Schools Should Teach

Howard E. Gardner Merging cognitive science with educational agenda, Gardner shows how ill-suited our minds and natural patterns of learning are to current educational materials, practices, and institutions, and makes an eloquent case for restructuring our schools. This reissue includes a new introduction by the author.

Intelligence Reframed: Multiple Intelligences for the 21st Century

Howard E. Gardner A brilliant state-of-the-art report on how the landmark theory of multiple intelligences is radically changing our understanding of education and human development.

Since its original description in Frames of Mind (1983, 1993), the theory of multiple intelligences has taken its place as one of the seminal ideas of the twentieth century. Further explicated in Gardner's 1993 book, Multiple Intelligences, these ideas continue to attract attention and generate controversy all over the world. Now, in Intelligence Reframed, Gardner provides a much-needed state of the art report on the theory. He describes how it has evolved and been revised. He introduces two new intelligences, and argues that the concept of intelligence should be broadened, but not so much that it includes every human faculty and value. In addition, he offers practical guidance on the educational uses of the theory, and responds in lively dialogue to the critiques leveled against it.

Harvard psychologist Howard Gardner has been acclaimed as the most influential educational theorist since John Dewey. His ideas about intelligence and creativity - explicated in such bestselling books as Frames of Mind and Multiple Intelligences (over 200,000 copies in print combined) - have revolutionized our thinking.

In his groundbreaking 1983 book Frames of Mind, Howard Gardner first introduced the theory of multiple intelligences, which posits that intelligence is more than a single property of the human mind. That theory has become widely accepted as one of the seminal ideas of the twentieth century and continues to attract attention all over the world.

Now in Intelligence Reframed, Gardner provides a much-needed report on the theory, its evolution and revisions. He offers practical guidance on the educational uses of the theory and responds to the critiques leveled against him. He also introduces two new intelligences (existential intelligence and naturalist intelligence) and argues that the concept of intelligence should be broadened, but not so absurdly that it includes every human virtue and value. Ultimately, argues Gardner, possessing a basic set of seven or eight intelligences is not only a unique trademark of the human species, but also perhaps even a working definition of the species. Gardner also offers provocative ideas about creativity, leadership, and moral excellence, and speculates about the relationship between multiple intelligences and the world of work in the future.

Essential Words for the GRE

Philip Geer Test takers preparing to take the GRE (Graduate Record Exam) must command a high-level vocabulary to achieve a high score. This book is designed to teach the definitions of 800 words often appearing on the GRE while also familiarizing test takers with how the words are generally used in context. The book opens with a pretest that serves as a diagnostic, then presents the word list with extensive sentence-completion exercises. A following chapter discusses and analyzes essential word roots. The book concludes with a detailed post-test. Answers are given for all exercises and for all questions in the post-test.

Functions and Graphs

I. M. Gelfand, E. G. Glagoleva, E. E. Shnol The second in a series of systematic studies by a celebrated mathematician I. M. Gelfand and colleagues, this volume presents students with a well-illustrated sequence of problems and exercises designed to illuminate the properties of functions and graphs. (See below for details of other books in this series.) Since readers do not have the benefit of a blackboard on which a teacher constructs a graph, the authors abandoned the customary use of diagrams in which only the final form of the graph appears; instead, the book's margins feature step-by-step diagrams for the complete construction of each graph. The first part of the book employs simple functions to analyze the fundamental methods of constructing graphs. The second half deals with more complicated and refined questions concerning linear functions, quadratic trinomials, linear fractional functions, power functions, and rational functions.

Algebra

Israel M. Gelfand, Alexander Shen The need for improved mathematics education at the high school and college levels has never been more apparent than in the 1990's. As early as the 1960's, I.M. Gelfand and his colleagues in the USSR thought hard about this same question and developed a style for presenting basic mathematics in a clear and simple form that engaged the curiosity and intellectual interest of thousands of high school and college students. These same ideas, this development, are available in the following books to any student who is willing to read, to be stimulated, and to learn.

"Algebra" is an elementary algebra text from one of the leading mathematicians of the world — a major contribution to the teaching of the very first high school level course in a centuries old topic — refreshed by the author's inimitable pedagogical style and deep understanding of mathematics and how it is taught and learned.

Sequences, Combinations, Limits

S. I. Gelfand, M. L. Gerver, A. A. Kirillov, N. N. Konstantinov In a departure from traditional teaching methods, this text focuses on theory more than computations, relying on independent study. Its material is geared toward aspects of high-school mathematics that promise to prove particularly useful for future studies and work. The first of three chapters deals with sequences, their definitions, and methods of mathematic induction. The next chapter addresses combinations, and the final chapter examines limits through a series of introductory problems, problems related to the definition of limit, and problems related to the computation of limits. Answers and hints to the test problems are provided, and "road signs" appear in the margins, marking passages requiring particular attention. 1969 ed.

Assessment Practices in Undergraduate Mathematics

Bonnie Gold, Sandra Z. Keith, William A. Marion Series: MAA Notes

This book, a collection of assessment practices that have been tried by more than 100 contributors in mathematics at a wide variety of schools, attempts to offer the mathematics teacher suggestions from an insider’s perspective. The book is not formulaic: no author claims to have "the answer," and many of the projects reported on are still in progress. On the other hand, the articles provide a wealth of suggestions from creative, energetic, and concerned individuals who have had the courage to experiment and to critique their own efforts. Without doubt, the reader will find in these pages encouragement to experiment on his or her own, to find assessment methods that are personally meaningful.

"They Say / I Say": The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing

Gerald Graff, Cathy Birkenstein The book that demystifies academic writing, teaching students to frame their arguments in the larger context of what else has been said about their topic–and providing templates to help them make the key rhetorical moves. The best-selling new composition book published in this century, in use at more than 1,000 schools, They Say / I Say has essentially defined academic writing, identifying its key rhetorical moves, the most important of which is to summarize what others have said (“they say”) to set up one’s own argument (“I say”). The book also provides templates to help students make these key moves in their own writing.

The Second Edition includes a new chapter on reading that shows students how to read for the larger conversation and two new chapters on the moves that matter in the sciences and social sciences. line drawings

In a rare blend of scientific insight and writing as elegant as the theories it explains, Brian Greene, one of the world's leading string theorists, peels away the layers of mystery surrounding string theory to reveal a universe that consists of 11 dimensions where the fabric of space tears and repairs itself, and all matter-from the smallest quarks to the most gargantuan supernovas-is generated by the vibrations of microscopically tiny loops of energy.

Green uses everything from an amusement park ride to ants on a garden hose to illustrate the beautiful yet bizarre realities that modern physics is unveiling.

Dazzling in its brilliance, unprecedented in its ability to both illuminate and entertain, The Elegant Universe is a tour de force of science writing-a delightful, lucid voyage through modern physics that brings us closer than ever to understanding how the universe works.

Scientific Teaching

Jo Handelsman, Sarah Miller, Christine Pfund Seasoned classroom veterans, pre-tenured faculty, and neophyte teaching assistants alike will find this book invaluable.

HHMI Professor Jo Handelsman and her colleagues at the Wisconsin Program for Scientific Teaching (WPST) have distilled key findings from education, learning, and cognitive psychology and translated them into six chapters of digestible research points and practical classroom examples. The recommendations have been tried and tested in the National Academies Summer Institute on Undergraduate Education in Biology and through the WPST. Scientific Teaching is not a prescription for better teaching. Rather, it encourages the reader to approach teaching in a way that captures the spirit and rigor of scientific research and to contribute to transforming how students learn science.

Ramanujan: Twelve Lectures on Subjects Suggested by His Life and Work

G. H. Hardy Ramanujan occupies a unique place in analytic number theory. His formulas, identities, and calculations are still amazing three-quarters of a century after his death. Many of his discoveries seem to have appeared as if from the ether. His mentor and primary collaborator was the famous G. H. Hardy. Here, Hardy collects twelve of his own lectures on topics stemming from Ramanujan's life and work. The topics include partitions, hypergeometric series, Ramanujan's $\tau$-function and round numbers.

Hardy was the first to recognize the brilliance of Ramanujan's ideas. As one of the great mathematicians of the time, it is fascinating to read Hardy's accounts of their importance and influence. The book concludes with a chapter by chapter overview written by Bruce C. Berndt. In this overview, Berndt gives references to current literature, developments since Hardy's original lectures, and background information on Ramanujan's research, including his unpublished papers.
