This book is designed to help teachers at school and colleges to ask the right questions and provide the right answers. It is based on the teaching and research activities of the Mathematics Education Group at Brunel University. The research studies with some 22,000 learners aged from 10 to 57 years have shown that there are certain basic mathematical tasks which cause common misconceptions: what is learnt today does indeed matter tomorrow. Diagnosis of these misconceptions is, however, subtle; in tasks which look similar, only certain kinds really probe the learner′s understanding. An introductory chapter discusses the need for, and the art of, diagnosis. The central theme of diagnosis allied to prescriptions is then discu

`This dictionary is one of the best I have come across′ - Mathematics Teaching This dictionary gives a useful account of basic concepts in mathematics (such as number, sum and point); provides brief explanation of standard topics likely to appear in syllabuses (Taylor series, uniform convergence) and is also an informative reference to concepts or ideas likely to be met by students in general reading even if unlikely to be in the required textbooks (Tucker circle, Godell number, verging methods). Prepared in consultation with a panel of advisers and readers (including students) whose experience between them covered the range of use, it gives definitions of about 2,500 terms with about 500 diag

This book explores the development of computer assisted learning (CAL) materials that have been designed to enhance and extend the curriculum. Such materials, both their software and the accompanying notes, can be seen as an integral part of the learning environment of the classroom.This book is also a detailed case study of a curriculum development project in action, tracing its working pattern, principles and problems. Guidelines for developing CAL are given that will be of interest to other developers in the field, and cover such topics as: development stages of a CAL unit; specification and the 'comic strip'; screen design and user interface; school trials; programming and design tools; and modus operandi of a development team. Detailed examples of software under development are given to illustrate the text. Throughout the book, the discussion of CAL is related to the wider issues of teaching and learning with the computer.

This book is in three parts. The first part outlines the process of learning to read and the implications of this for teachers. The view taken is that teaching children to read involves teaching reading behaviours which enable children to use the facts that are learned and the skills that are acquired. These behaviours include spelling and writing as well as the adoption of searching and flexible strategies to facilitate the associating of print with language and thought. Part Two offers responses to some basic considerations. These cover issues which face all teachers of young children before they can determine a programme that suits both them and the children. The third section outlines a programme that covers teaching children to read and suggests ways in which spelling and writing may contribute to the task. This programme includes both the learning that is necessary and the teaching that enables it to be accomplished.
