Ratio and Proportion-Research and Teaching in Mathematics Teachers'
Education offers its readers an intellectual adventure where they
can acquire invaluable tools to turn teaching ratio and proportion
to professionals and school children into an enjoyable experience.
Based on in-depth research, it presents a deep, comprehensive view
of the topic, focusing on both the mathematical and
psychological-didactical aspects of teaching it. The unique
teaching model incorporates both theoretical and practical
knowledge, allowing instructors to custom-design teacher courses
according to their specific needs. The book reports on hands-on
experience in the college classes plus teachers' experience in the
actual classroom setting. An important feature is the extensive
variety of interesting, meaningful authentic activities. While
these activities are on a level that will engage pre- and
in-service mathematics teachers in training, most can also be
utilized in upper elementary and middle school classes.
Accompanying the majority of these activities are detailed remarks,
explanations, and solutions, along with creative ideas on how to
conduct and expand the learning adventure. While primarily written
for educators of mathematics teachers, this book can be an
invaluable source of information for mathematics teachers of
elementary and middle school classes, pre-service teachers, and
mathematics education researchers.
