Designed to help pre-service and in-service teachers gain the
knowledge they need to facilitate students' understanding,
competency, and interest in mathematics, the revised and updated
Second Edition of this popular text and resource bridges the gap
between the mathematics learned in college and the mathematics
taught in secondary schools. Highlighting multiple types of
mathematical understanding to deepen insight into the secondary
school mathematics curriculum, it addresses typical areas of
difficulty and common student misconceptions so teachers can
involve their students in learning mathematics in a way that is
interesting, interconnected, understandable, and often surprising
and entertaining. Six content strands are discussed-Numbers and
Operations; Algebra; Geometry; Measurement; Data Analysis and
Probability; and Proof, Functions, and Mathematical Modeling. The
informal, clear style supports an interactive learner-centered
approach through engaging pedagogical features: Launch Questions at
the beginning of each section capture interest and involve readers
in learning the mathematical concepts. Practice Problems provide
opportunities to apply what has been learned and complete proofs.
Questions from the Classroom bring the content to life by
addressing the deep "why" conceptual questions that middle or
secondary school students are curious about, and questions that
require analysis and correction of typical student errors and
misconceptions; focus on counter intuitive results; and contain
activities and/or tasks suitable for use with students. Changes in
the Second Edition New sections on Robotics, Calculators, Matrix
Operations, Cryptography, and the Coefficient of Determination New
problems, simpler proofs, and more illustrative examples Answers
and hints for selected problems provided
