Download or read book Advanced Algebra for Teachers (Revised Edition) written by Kirthi Premadasa and published by . This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secondary school math teachers in several states are required to successfully pass state exams in Algebra. Often, these exams require a wide spectrum of knowledge ranging from high school Algebra to Abstract Algebra. The book, "Advanced Algebra for Teachers," is uniquely designed to cover this variety of topics in a user friendly manner. It is currently used by secondary school teachers in California who are training for the Algebra subtest of the CSET exam, but the text should be ideally suited for schoolteachers nationwide hoping to acquire a similar body of knowledge. The topics are presented through worked out examples, in the simplest language possible. Consequently these concepts can be introduced to readers who may not be the traditional audience for this type of content. Another salient feature of the book is that the examples and exercise sets cover skill levels from basic concepts to more difficult problems gently exposing the reader to the intensity present in most certification exams. In more practical terms, the text assists the practicing teacher with a critical overview of a comprehensive algebra curricular from basic algebra to abstract algebra. Dr. Kirthi Premadasa (PhD., Purdue University) is an Assistant Professor in the Mathematics Department at University of Wisconsin Marathon County. Dr. Premadasa has more than seventeen years of mathematics teaching and has taught the entire spectrum of undergraduate algebra. His current research is in undergraduate mathematics education with an emphasis on student bottlenecks in solving algebra word problems and integration applications. He was one of the two Wisconsin Teaching Fellows selected from all thirteen campuses of the UW Colleges in all disciplines in 2010. Dr. Rajee Amarasinghe (Ph.D., Indiana University) is an Associate Professor in the Mathematics Department at California State University, Fresno where he teaches mathematics classes for perspective elementary and secondary school teachers. Also, he directs and conducts local and international professional development workshops for mathematics teachers. Dr. Oscar Vega is an Assistant Professor in the mathematics department at California State University, Fresno. He received his PhD in Mathematics in 2006 from the University of Iowa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a systematic exposition of a major part of the mathematics of grades 5 to 8 (excluding statistics), written specifically for Common Core era teachers. It differs from other books for teachers in that the mathematics is correct, in the sense that all the concepts are clearly and correctly defined, and a grade-appropriate explanation (that is, proof) is given for every assertion. For example, it gives a precise definition of percent and explains how to use the definition to do all the standard problems about percent in an entirely routine manner. It also gives a leisurely explanation for “negative times negative is positive”. Another key feature is an intuitive introduction to plane geometry via rotations, translations, reflections, and dilations that, instead of treating these transformations as merely fun activities, shows how they make sense of the usual geometric topics in middle school, including congruence, similarity, length, area, and volume. In short, the readers will find in this volume a clear explanation of whatever was once puzzling to them in the mathematics of grades 5 to 8.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now is a time of great interest in mathematics education. Student performance, curriculum, and teacher education are the subjects of much scrutiny and debate. Studies on the mathematical knowledge of prospective and practicing U. S. teachers suggest ways to improve their mathematical educations. It is often assumed that because the topics covered in K-12 mathematics are so basic, they should be easy to teach. However, research in mathematics education has shown that to teach well,substantial mathematical understanding is necessary--even to teach whole-number arithmetic. Prospective teachers need a solid understanding of mathematics so that they can teach it as a coherent, reasoned activity and communicate its elegance and power. This volume gathers and reports current thinkingon curriculum and policy issues affecting the mathematical education of teachers. It considers two general themes: (1) the intellectual substance in school mathematics; and (2) the special nature of the mathematical knowledge needed for teaching. The underlying study was funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The mathematical knowledge needed for teaching is quite different from that required by students pursuing other mathematics-related professions. Material here is gearedtoward stimulating efforts on individual campuses to improve programs for prospective teachers. This report contains general recommendations for all grades and extensive discussions of the specific mathematical knowledge required for teaching elementary, middle, and high-school grades, respectively.It is also designed to marshal efforts in the mathematical sciences community to back important national initiatives to improve mathematics education and to expand professional development opportunities. The book will be an important resource for mathematics faculty and other parties involved in the mathematical education of teachers. Information for our distributors: This series is published in cooperation with the Mathematical Association of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "To truly engage in mathematics is to become curious and intrigued about regularities and patterns, then describe and explain them. A focus on the behavior of the operations allows students starting in the familiar territory of number and computation to progress to true engagement in the discipline of mathematics." -Susan Jo Russell, Deborah Schifter, and Virginia Bastable Algebra readiness: it's a topic of concern that seems to pervade every school district. How can we better prepare elementary students for algebra? More importantly, how can we help all children, not just those who excel in math, become ready for later instruction? The answer lies not in additional content, but in developing a way of thinking about the mathematics that underlies both arithmetic and algebra. Connecting Arithmetic to Algebra invites readers to learn about a crucial component of algebraic thinking: investigating the behavior of the operations. Nationally-known math educators Susan Jo Russell, Deborah Schifter, and Virginia Bastable and a group of collaborating teachers describe how elementary teachers can shape their instruction so that students learn to: *notice and describe consistencies across problems *articulate generalizations about the behavior of the operations *develop mathematical arguments based on representations to explain why such generalizations are or are not true. Through such work, students become familiar with properties and general rules that underlie computational strategies-including those that form the basis of strategies used in algebra-strengthening their understanding of grade-level content and at the same time preparing them for future studies. Each chapter is illustrated by lively episodes drawn from the classrooms of collaborating teachers in a wide range of settings. These provide examples of posing problems, engaging students in productive discussion, using representations to develop mathematical arguments, and supporting both students with a wide range of learning profiles. Staff Developers: Available online, the Course Facilitator's Guide provides math leaders with tools and resources for implementing a Connecting Arithmetic to Algebra workshop or preservice course.
