Fractions, Decimals & Percentages Mathematics Curriculum Development Assignment On. fractions, decimals percentages At Glossopdale Community College class teacher allowed me to teach in whatever manner and style I http://s13a.math.aca.mmu.ac.uk/Student_Writings/CDAE/GlenHutchinson/GlenHutchins
Extractions: Contents Appendix 3: Analysis of the End of topic test answers The class chosen to do my CDA with was 9A2, a Year 9 class. Within Year 9 at Glossopdale there are twelve classes, six "A" classes numbered 1-6 and six "B" classes also numbered 1-6. Class 1 is the top set class and class 6 is the bottom set class with there being no difference between A or B. There are twenty-nine pupils in the class identified as working at Key Stage Level 4/5 to 6/7 (see Appendix 1 for full class list and individual level indicators). Immediately before the Easter holidays, this class were sitting mock Key Stage 3 SAT's. All but two pupils had been entered for the SAT Level 4-6, except for Emma Shard and Kathryn Hall who had been entered for Level 5-7. The text book the school was using for this class was Letts Educational Key Stage 3 Classbook. Basically, the book has three sections; Level 4, Level 5 and Level 6 that reflect National Curriculum Level Indicators for the Key Stage. A topic can appear in all three sections and the level of work will get progressively harder in each section. In September, the class teacher starts at the beginning of the book and aims to complete Level 6 before the Key Stage 3 SAT's. Therefore, the class had already covered a certain amount of work previously in the academic year on Fractions and Percentages (Level 4), Working with Decimals (Level 4), Decimals and Negative Numbers (Level 5) and Fractions and Percentages (Level 5). In Level 6, where I was starting from, the previous knowledge was being consolidated under one heading Fractions, Decimals and Percentages. I found some of the content in the Level 6 chapter was at times too difficult for some of the weaker pupils in the class.

It's been a long time since I graduated in 1970, so I would love everything you can give me to help. She is a good kid and having a real hard time with this."

Focus On Basics - September 2000 Using Software Applications to teach Math by Catherine Cantrell. To show the connectionamong fractions, decimals, and percentages, I instruct the learners http://www.gse.harvard.edu/~ncsall/fob/2000/cantrell.html
Extractions: by Catherine Cantrell Seven years ago I was asked to join a project that focused on increasing the use of technology in adult basic education (ABE) programs. Initially I declined. I did not believe in placing basic skills students in front of computer monitors, isolated from other learners and from caring teachers. During graduate school I had observed several adult learning center computer labs where stu dents were left on their own to work through math problems, with the educational software doing most of the processing. While this method probably helps some learners, I found it to be boring and potentially pointless: the drills rarely provided a relevant context in which the students might apply their skills.
Focus On Basics - September 2000 substantive change in how and what we teach in mathematics computational rules (algorithms)with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, and prealgebra http://www.gse.harvard.edu/~ncsall/fob/2000/schmitt.html
Extractions: by Mary Jane Schmitt Challenging the Math Status Quo A growing of body of work emphatically challenges the ABE/GED math status quo. A group of seven recently published and/or released policy and research documents has the potential of moving us beyond the basics toward a more realistic, flexible, and adult-centered mathematics curriculum. Taken together, these seven serve as a rich resource for updating the mathematical content of adult basic education. None of these documents abandons the basics but they do redirect the emphasis on what the basics are. And while their underlying messages are similar, each document contributes uniquely to a new mission for ABE/GED mathematics instruction. Some of the documents put an emphasis on adult in the lived-in world. The
