Book Synopsis Improving Math Comprehension Through Journal Writing by : Brandton Allen Lager
Download or read book Improving Math Comprehension Through Journal Writing written by Brandton Allen Lager and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the use of journal writing to improve math comprehension. More specifically, determining what effect journal writing had on the conceptual understanding, adaptive reasoning, and productive disposition of four struggling fifth and sixth grade students in mathematics. Students wrote journal entries using a five step journal problem process which were examined by their two teachers. Teacher observation, discussion, and a self-designed survey were also employed to gain a better understanding of the student's disposition towards communicating in mathematics. It was hypothesized that utilizing journal writing in mathematics allows all students to share their thinking and justify their results. The researcher concluded that giving students the chance to explain their thinking through the use of journal prompts in mathematics allowed struggling learners to more effectively demonstrate their knowledge. The journals also helped teachers assess individual student's progress and tailor interventions where needed.

Book Synopsis Journal Writing In Math? Why Not? by : Jolin Olson
Download or read book Journal Writing In Math? Why Not? written by Jolin Olson and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has indicated that regular, systematic writing, over an extended period of time, improves student academic achievement and attitude towards mathematics. In addition there is support that assessment for learning strategies, such as descriptive feedback and peer and self-assessment, are vital to enhancing students' overall performance. Traditional teaching practices of chalk and talk do not meet the needs of students entering our classrooms today. Teachers must be innovative and rely on a combination of teaching methods to stimulate students' interest and to elicit participation in their own learning process. Journal writing has been more commonly associated with English/Language Arts classes. However, current research has found that when students write and explain what they are thinking in a written format, they gain a deeper understanding of the math concepts and skills. This book should help all educators in the K-12 setting see the relevance and importance of implementing the use of journal writing when teaching mathematics.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Using Math Journals to Increase Conceptual Understanding of Math Skills in First Graders by : Carla M. Riley
Download or read book The Effects of Using Math Journals to Increase Conceptual Understanding of Math Skills in First Graders written by Carla M. Riley and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to improve students' conceptual understanding of math skills and strategies. In t past, students would give and answer and the teacher would determine if they were right or wrong. Throughout this action research project, problem solving strategies were taught and modeled through writing. Students applied these skills using a writing journal during math class. Students used a rubric to aid in their level of development. Results indicated an improvement in student's conceptual understanding of math skills.

Book Synopsis Using Journaling Activities to Increase Mathematical Communication Skills in Geometry by : Tanya Marie Rensvold
Download or read book Using Journaling Activities to Increase Mathematical Communication Skills in Geometry written by Tanya Marie Rensvold and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This action research project was carried out to determine if implementing journaling activities into a geometry classroom increased students' mathematical reasoning, mathematical terminology, and mathematical communication skills. For eight weeks, students responded to weekly journal prompts corresponding to the content being taught in class. Using a 12-point rubric, I graded each student's journal and provided feedback to help improve their writing. After grading each set of student journals, I documented my observations and preliminary interpretations in a teacher journal. During the study I added writing portions to my unit tests. After the study was completed, I interviewed several students to gain their perspectives of journaling in math. Paired t-tests of dependent samples showed statistically significant improvement in studetns' mathematical reasoning, terminology, and communication scores on the student journal scores. After analyzing student responses to interview questions, I dtermined students thought journaling in math class imporved their confidence in writing mathematically as well as deepend their understanding of the material.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: This qualitative research study documents the observed and reported experiences of fourth grade math students and their teacher when math journals are implemented in their curriculum to increase student understanding and motivation to write in math class. In this study, the teacher explored the process of designing journal prompts, establishing a routine in the classroom where these journal prompts were completed, and fostering motivation within the students to adapt to this new classroom routine. The author designed the study so that the students saw a purpose for each prompt, engaged the students in writing and sharing, and provided opportunities for students to work collaboratively using their journal entries. In order to maintain complete journal prompts, the author established a routine for writing, a connection to content being taught with journal prompts, and assistance when students needed prompting for their entries. The teacher engaged in dialogue with the students through the journals as well as feedback during group observations. The author discovered many of these implementations to be successful for the students in the classroom. Since the classroom contained a variety of diverse learners with different learning styles and needs, the author found that some students had different strategies that enabled them to be successful with their writing.

Book Synopsis Journaling as a Test Preparatory Measure in Secondary Mathematics by : Lloyd Emery Nickerson (II.)
Download or read book Journaling as a Test Preparatory Measure in Secondary Mathematics written by Lloyd Emery Nickerson (II.) and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines a math journal writing assignment comparing how high school (grades 10 through 12) algebra students who performed well and students who performed poorly on traditional mathematics tests constructed their corresponding journal entries. Statistically significant differences found indicated that students who performed well on the tests were more likely to have originally composed the text and examples in their journal entries, and students who performed poorly were more likely to have copied much of the mathematical language and examples in their journal entries from their textbooks. Students who performed well on the test were also more likely to include examples accompanied by explanation for each step toward a solution. An assignment involving several such explanatory examples could perform a same or similar function as the longer journal assignment examined in this study. (Contains 4 tables.)
