Drawing on rich classroom observations of educators teaching in
China and the U.S., this book details an innovative and effective
approach to teaching algebra at the elementary level, namely,
"teaching through example-based problem solving" (TEPS).
Recognizing young children's particular cognitive and developmental
capabilities, this book powerfully argues for the importance of
infusing algebraic thinking into early grade mathematics teaching
and illustrates how this has been achieved by teachers in U.S. and
Chinese contexts. Documenting best practice and students' responses
to example-based instruction, the text demonstrates that this TEPS
approach - which involves the use of worked examples,
representations, and deep questions - helps students learn and
master fundamental mathematical ideas, making it highly effective
in developing algebraic readiness and mathematical understanding.
This text will benefit post-graduate students, researchers, and
academics in the fields of mathematics, STEM, and elementary
education, as well as algebra research more broadly. Those
interested in teacher education, classroom practice, and
developmental and cognitive psychology will also find this volume
of interest.
