This book was released on 2006 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to determine whether the use of anxiety reduction and mathematics study skills techniques incorporated in a Basic Math course would lower students' math anxiety and increase achievement in African American students enrolled in a Historically Black College. This study was limited to only African American students enrolled in two sections of Basic Math at Rust College, in Holly Springs, Mississippi: one control class (33 students) and one treatment class (33 students). One professor, the researcher, taught the same lectures and used traditional methods of teaching in both classes. In the treatment class the teacher used anxiety reduction and math study skills techniques such as collaborative learning, journal writing, learning activities, relaxation instructions, and test taking skills over an eight week period. Identical math content was covered in both sections. Achievement was measured by the Rust College Placement Exam and mathematics anxiety was measured by administering the Math Anxiety Rating Scale after each class test. The obtained results indicated a significant reduction in anxiety (p = .000) and a significant increase in achievement (p = .000) for the treatment group. Additionally, a significant difference in gender was indicated for anxiety (p = .019), but not for achievement (p = .779) for the treatment group.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study sought to identify whether targeted interventions produce a statistically significant reduction in student math anxiety, which methods are most effective in reducing student math anxiety, and whether effective methods differ according to academic achievement level. The interventions applied, consisting of curricular design, classroom practices, and instructor behaviors, were as follows : (1) use of unit outlines , (2) incorporating review work , (3) collaborative groupwork, (4) perceived instructor empathy , (5) concepts explained in various ways , (6) out-of-class 1:1 aid , (7) content made relevant , (8) positive reinforcement from instructor/peers . The research was performed in an Algebra 1 classroom of a public high school, containing 64 students, over the course of 1 semester (18 weeks). A presurvey and postsurvey measured students' math anxiety levels, while all 8 interventions were applied continuously throughout the semester. Pre - and post anxiety levels, semester grades, and supplementary postsurvey questions regarding students' opinions on intervention effectiveness produced the statistically significant result that targeted interventions do reduce math anxiety. However, when grouped according to achievement level, this result only holds for those students defined by high academic achievement. Overall, the most effective intervention methods were a caring instructor, an encouraging learning environment, and mixing in review work throughout the semester.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finding an inexpensive, timely, and effective intervention to reduce math anxiety in community college students is a worthwhile endeavor. Math anxiety left unattended can lead to the conscious and deliberate avoidance of math-heavy educational programs and careers. Previous investigations in math anxiety interventions have overlooked the potential for mastery learning-based online modules to reduce math anxiety. The purpose of this two-factor quasi-experimental posttest-only control group study is to investigate whether participation in Let’s Go Racing, a mastery learning-inspired intervention designed to prepare students for gateway math courses, affects math anxiety levels and whether the potential effect differs for male and female students. This study also seeks to determine if Strawderman’s Math Anxiety Model and the reciprocal theory, both supporting the notion that student math success and math anxiety are inversely and bidirectionally associated, are plausible explanations of the phenomenon. A treatment group of Math 171 – Precalculus Algebra students at a small North Carolina community college was given the Math Anxiety Scale-Revised after completing Let’s Go Racing, while a control group of Math 171 students from another North Carolina community college completed only the Math Anxiety Scale-Revised assessment. Data were collected electronically and analyzed using two-way ANOVA statistical analyses. Results support the notion that female college students experience higher math anxiety levels than their male counterparts. However, the impact of Let’s Go Racing on math anxiety was inconclusive. The resulting recommendations are to replicate this study with a larger sample size and to investigate the effects of the Let’s Go Racing math intervention in other math courses and with younger students.

Book excerpt: Feelings of apprehension and fear brought on by mathematical performance can affect correct mathematical application and can influence the achievement and future paths of individuals affected by it. In recent years, mathematics anxiety has become a subject of increasing interest both in educational and clinical settings. This ground-breaking collection presents theoretical, educational and psychophysiological perspectives on the widespread phenomenon of mathematics anxiety. Featuring contributions from leading international researchers, Mathematics Anxiety challenges preconceptions and clarifies several crucial areas of research, such as the distinction between mathematics anxiety from other forms of anxiety (i.e., general or test anxiety); the ways in which mathematics anxiety has been assessed (e.g. throughout self-report questionnaires or psychophysiological measures); the need to clarify the direction of the relationship between math anxiety and mathematics achievement (which causes which). Offering a revaluation of the negative connotations usually associated with mathematics anxiety and prompting avenues for future research, this book will be invaluable to academics and students in the field psychological and educational sciences, as well as teachers working with students who are struggling with mathematics anxiety

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easy-to-apply, scientifically-based approaches for engaging students in the classroom Cognitive scientist Dan Willingham focuses his acclaimed research on the biological and cognitive basis of learning. His book will help teachers improve their practice by explaining how they and their students think and learn. It reveals-the importance of story, emotion, memory, context, and routine in building knowledge and creating lasting learning experiences. Nine, easy-to-understand principles with clear applications for the classroom Includes surprising findings, such as that intelligence is malleable, and that you cannot develop "thinking skills" without facts How an understanding of the brain's workings can help teachers hone their teaching skills "Mr. Willingham's answers apply just as well outside the classroom. Corporate trainers, marketers and, not least, parents -anyone who cares about how we learn-should find his book valuable reading." —Wall Street Journal

This book was released on 2006 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to investigate the prevalence of mathematics anxiety among freshman Algebra I students in an urban, Midwestern high school, and (b) to find out if a pre-quiz and quiz intervention could reduce mathematics anxiety in one specific class. The Mathematics Anxiety Rating Scale for Adolescents (MARS-A) was the primary quantitative data collection instrument. Qualitative data were collected using the Mathematicsitude Survey, student reflections, and interviews. Findings from the MARS-A showed that 50% of students experienced a significant amount of mathematics anxiety, particularly associated with test-taking. However, there was a large amount of variation among scores. In the treatment class, a strategy of pre-quiz followed by the same or similar quiz the following day was used to build student confidence and thereby lessen anxiety. The strategy did not meet this objective as many students reported greater anxiety levels after the intervention than before. Qualitative probing did show that in some isolated cases the strategy worked very well.
