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.

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.

Download or read book Using Journals in Elementary Mathematics written by Debbie Muthersbaugh and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of Using Journals in Elementary Mathematics is to provide elementary teachers with practical tools and ideas for successfully implementing math journals in their own classrooms. This book also looks at how using journals in elementary mathematics education is beneficial and how it enhances teaching and learning in math. Students who record their thinking in writing and representations - specifically in written language, or using drawings and symbols - enhance and deepen their learning in elementary mathematics. Using Journals in Elementary Mathematics is intended to assist teachers in developing mathematical confidence in their students, to support math instruction, and deepen learning by providing a structure for using journals as part of everyday math. Using Journals in Elementary Mathematics is organized into three sections: Part 1 focuses on issues in elementary mathematics education. This section should be read as a background for understanding the research supporting the use of writing and visual representations in elementary mathematics. Part 2 discusses what a math journal is, introducing a detailed and practical model for implementing the use of journals in math. Part 3 provides additional models and resources for implementing math journals in elementary classrooms. Success for students in math certainly includes the knowledge of how math works and best ways to find answers. But success in the future with math also demands students look at problems critically, be able to effectively communicate their knowledge, and make real-world connections across disciplines. There are a variety of reasons some students might find math difficult. Some don't see the purpose of using math or any real world connections and so they do not develop an interest. Other students move on to higher math levels or concepts without mastering or understanding the foundation required as they learn how it works. Some individuals are labeled as poor math students and give up entirely. This book provides a way that students can develop their mathematical thinking using a method that engages students in problem solving, representing their thinking, and reflecting on their own learning.

This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical writing is essential for students’ math learning, but it’s often underutilized due to unclear guidelines. Mathematical writing is a mode of communication that provides teachers access to their students’ thinking and, importantly, offers students an opportunity to deepen their mathematical understanding, engage in mathematical reasoning, and learn a fundamental way to communicate mathematically. Notably, one needs to be able to judiciously combine mathematical symbols, representations, and text. However, more research is needed to exemplify the qualities of mathematical writing, develop implementation methods, and support teachers. Illuminating and Advancing the Path for Mathematical Writing Research, is a necessary comprehensive resource designed to enhance mathematical writing and promote equitable learning. This research book provides a comprehensive understanding of the current state of mathematical writing and illuminates various perspectives on moving the teaching and learning of k-12 mathematical writing forward. Mathematical writing is an important yet underutilized component of mathematical discourse, and this book offers further insight into understanding what it means to write mathematically for mathematics educators and researchers. It informs with research-based implementation strategies and creates purposeful professional learning opportunities. Ultimately, k-12 students will benefit from a more informed field because they will have access to a vital mode of mathematical reasoning and communication.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated the effect of journal writing in mathematics classes on achievement in and attitude towards mathematics. Achievement included school mathematics achievement, conceptual understanding, procedural knowledge, problem-solving, and mathematical communication. The differential effect of gender, program, level of writing achievement, and level of mathematics achievement were also investigated. The study was conducted on students in four sections in the first intermediate classes at the International College in Beirut, two of these sections are in the French program and the other two in the English program. The subjects were 104 students (59.6% boys) equally distributed to the four classes. At the beginning of the year, the school randomly assigned the subjects to four classes in the English program, and three classes in the French program. For the purpose of this study, two sections from each of the programs, were randomly assigned to be the treatment and control groups respectively. The subjects in the journal writing group (treatment group) wrote in their journals three times a week for a twelve-week period, while the students in the non-journal writing group (control group) were given drill exercises. Conceptual understanding, procedural knowledge, problem-solving, mathematical communication, school mathematics achievement, and attitude towards mathematics were measured by pre- and posttests. Two-way multivariate analysis of covariance was used to test the hypotheses with pretests scores as covariates. These analyses were repeated for gender, program, level of writing achievement, and level of mathematics achievement. The students' evaluation of the journal writing experience was qualitatively studied. Results showed that journal writing had a significant effect on conceptual understanding, procedural knowledge, and mathematical communication, and no significant effect on problem-solving, school mathematics achievement, and attitude towards mathematics. No significant results were found for the interaction between journal writing and gender, program, level of writing achievement, and level of mathematics achievement. Students perceived the benefits of journal writing as a learning tool that enhances understanding and reflection on one's learning. It also provides the students the opportunity to give opinions and release frustration.
