Book Synopsis The Relationship Between Gender, Mathematics Achievement, and Student Attitudes Toward Mathematics by : Joseph Antwi
Download or read book The Relationship Between Gender, Mathematics Achievement, and Student Attitudes Toward Mathematics written by Joseph Antwi and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated whether there were differences between gender, mathematics achievement, and student attitudes toward mathematics. This study also analyzed the relationships between achievement and attitude by gender. This study involved fifth grade students at a public school in North Dakota. Results showed no significant difference in gender in terms of achievement in mathematics but did show significant difference in one of three categories concerning the attitudes of the students toward mathematics. No relationship was demonstrated between achievement and attitude by gender. The author therefore concluded that mathematics achievement and attitude towards mathematics were not themselves dependent on gender.

Book Synopsis ATTITUDES TOWARDS MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL ACHIEVEMENT IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN ENGLAND: EXPLORING THE ROLE OF SOCIAL CLASS, GENDER AND ETHNICITY by : Jeffery Quaye
Download or read book ATTITUDES TOWARDS MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL ACHIEVEMENT IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN ENGLAND: EXPLORING THE ROLE OF SOCIAL CLASS, GENDER AND ETHNICITY written by Jeffery Quaye and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is essential reading in the sociology of education, social policy and mathematics education. It is for teachers, principals, superintendents, school leaders and policymakers. For too long, many children have not achieved their best potential in mathematics at both primary and secondary schools. Although scholarly interest in students' attitudes towards mathematics and achievement in mathematics has increased, there is scant research which explores the explanatory potential of Bourdieu's trilogy of habitus, cultural capital and social field in investigating students' attitudes towards mathematics. The content is based on a rich empirical study of 1106 students aged 14-16 and gives a detailed account drawing on both quantitative and qualitative data to show the intersection of social class, gender and ethnicity on students' aspiration, attitudes towards mathematics and mathematical achievement at GCSE in secondary schools in England.

Book Synopsis Towards Gender Equity in Mathematics Education by : Gila Hanna
Download or read book Towards Gender Equity in Mathematics Education written by Gila Hanna and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1996-02-29 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume consists of original scholarly articles that develop further issues pertaining to gender equity in mathematics education. The premise - that there is no physical or intellectual barrier to the participation of women in mathematics, science, and technology - provides the starting point for analyses and discussion. The authors explore the attitudinal and societal/structural reasons for the gender imbalance in these fields and look at foci for change, including curriculum and assessment practices, classroom and school cultures, and teacher education programs. A major part of the book comprises a series of detailed descriptive studies of education systems across the world from the perspective of mathematics and gender equity issues.
Book Synopsis International Perspectives on Gender and Mathematics Education by : Olof Steinthorsdottir
Download or read book International Perspectives on Gender and Mathematics Education written by Olof Steinthorsdottir and published by IAP. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why a book on gender issues in mathematics in the 21st century? Several factors have influenced the undertaking of this project by the editors. First, an international volume focusing on gender and mathematics has not appeared since publication of papers emerging from the 1996 International Congress on Mathematical Education (Keitel, 1998). Surely it was time for an updated look at this critical area of mathematics education. Second, we have had lively discussion and working groups on gender issues at conferences of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education [PME] for the past four years, sessions at which stimulating and ground-breaking research has been discussed by participants from many different countries. Some publication seemed essential to share this new knowledge emerging from a wider variety of countries and from different cultural perspectives. Third, some western countries such as Australia and the USA have experienced in recent years a focus on the “boy problem,” with an underlying assumption that issues of females and mathematics have been solved and are no longer worthy of interest. Thus it seemed timely to look more closely at the issue of gender and mathematics internationally. When the idea for this volume first emerged, invitations were issued to those regularly attending the working and discussion groups at PME. Potential authors were charged to focus on gender issues in mathematics and were given wide scope to hone in on the issues that were central to their own research efforts, or were in receipt or in need of close attention in their own national or regional contexts.
Book Synopsis Women in Mathematics and Science by : Yupin Bae
Download or read book Women in Mathematics and Science written by Yupin Bae and published by Department of Education Office of Educational. This book was released on 1997 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the most current data on women's progress in mathematics and science achievement, attitudes, course-taking patterns, and college majors. Results of recent studies suggest that many factors such as parental encouragement, teacher preparation, teacher student interactions, curriculum content, hands-on laboratory experiences, self-concept, attitudes toward mathematics and science, availability of mentors, and home resources contribute to the attitudes, access, and achievement of young women in mathematics and science. The research cited here suggests that the gender gap in science and mathematics in the United States appears at Grade 10 while internationally the gap appears around Grade 8. Despite this, there are still substantial differences between women and men in mathematics, computer science, engineering and science fields. Contains 29 references. (DDR)
Book Synopsis Gender, Science and Mathematics by : L. H. Parker
Download or read book Gender, Science and Mathematics written by L. H. Parker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the Western world, the relationship between gender, science and math ematics has emerged as critical in a variety of contexts. In tertiary institutions, the study of "gender issues", frequently with reference to science and mathematics, is of central significance to many disciplines. Gender studies are being offered as sepa rate courses or parts of existing courses in preservice and postgraduate teacher edu cation, women's studies, technology studies and policy studies. In addition, in the broader context of education at all levels from primary/elementary through to higher, concerned policy-makers and practitioners frequently focus on the interaction of gender, science and mathematics in their attempts to reform and improve education for all students. In all of these contexts, there is an urgent need for suitable texts, both to provide resources for teachers and students and to inform policy-makers and practitioners. This book has been developed specifically to meet this need. It is designed to be used throughout the world in a variety of tertiary courses and by policy-makers concerned with activities which interface with the gender/science/mathematics rela tionship. It provides examples which illustrate vividly the rich field from which practitioners and policy-makers in this area now can draw. Its particular appeal will stem from its practical approach and creative future perspective, the international renown of the authors and the generalisability of the recent research and thinking presented in each of the chapters.
Book Synopsis Attitudes, Beliefs, Motivation and Identity in Mathematics Education by : Markku S. Hannula
Download or read book Attitudes, Beliefs, Motivation and Identity in Mathematics Education written by Markku S. Hannula and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book records the state of the art in research on mathematics-related affect. It discusses the concepts and theories of mathematics-related affect along the lines of three dimensions. The first dimension identifies three broad categories of affect: motivation, emotions, and beliefs. The book contains one chapter on motivation, including discussions on how emotions and beliefs relate to motivation. There are two chapters that focus on beliefs and a chapter on attitude which cross-cuts through all these categories. The second dimension covers a rapidly fluctuating state to a more stable trait. All chapters in the book focus on trait-type affect and the chapter on motivation discusses both these dimensions. The third dimension regards the three main levels of theorizing: physiological (embodied), psychological (individual) and social. All chapters reflect that mathematics-related affect has mainly been studied using psychological theories.

Book Synopsis Bridging the Mathematics Gender Gap by : Kofi Osei-Agyapong
Download or read book Bridging the Mathematics Gender Gap written by Kofi Osei-Agyapong and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the educational curriculum of countries the world over, Mathematics is a basic and compulsory subject in many courses of academic studies, from the formative years to the tertiary level. Some contend that the importance of attitude towards mathematics is its connection to achievement; McLeod (1992) found a low but significant correlation between these two factors - thus, more positive attitude may produce a higher level of achievement... There is a school of thought that society in general and girls in particular, consider mathematics as a male domain - that Mathematics is either too mechanical or too technical for girls. Girls are also considered as not being able to think or work scientifically (Agholor, 1993). The failure to make mathematics appealing and safe for ALL is turning the potential for social profit into grave deficit, the cost of which the average taxpayers will bear both financially and socially (Ogden and Germinario, 1988, p. xvii). This book investigates the attitudes of students towards the study of mathematics with the radar on women in particular to ascertain whether indeed their fewer numbers in mathematics is due to stereotyped attitudes and myths.
Book Synopsis High-achieving High School Girls' Positive Attitudes Toward Mathematics by : Judith Neustadt
Download or read book High-achieving High School Girls' Positive Attitudes Toward Mathematics written by Judith Neustadt and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mathematics gender gap that grows as girls age has received attention by researchers from many disciplines for over 25 years. The major factors cited in the research are biological ability differences, social and environmental differences, learner variables, and the discipline and teaching of mathematics. These factors have been explored as contributors to females' lack of success and negative feelings about mathematics. However, there are females who are successful and have positive feelings about mathematics. The purpose of this book is to explore the elements that contribute to some young women's positive feelings about mathematics. A qualitative study design is used based on in-depth interviews with four female high school seniors, their parents, and their Calculus BC teacher. Portraits are presented that include the girls' family, peers, educational experiences, relationships with mathematics, learner behaviors and preferences, beliefs about the teaching and learning of mathematics, and beliefs about gender and learning. Educators, parents, and anyone who is curious about the intersection of math and gender will find this book interesting.
