High School Mathematics Pathways
Defining the Two Pathways For the purposes of planning for high school curriculum, Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) is setting forth two possible paths for high school mathematics: a traditional pathway and an integrated pathway. It is important to note that Indiana is not mandating either approach; however, IDOE encourages districts to carefully consider both options before making a deci...
متن کاملHigh school employment , high school curriculum , and post - school wages
The direct, skill-enhancing effect of high school employment is difficult to identify because high school work effort is correlated with curricular choices, postsecondary schooling and work effort, and many other observed and unobserved factors. This study uses data for male, high school graduates to estimate a wage model in which detailed measures of high school coursework and post-school work...
متن کاملDoing High School Mathematics Carefully
We show how solutions to typical problems of High School and rst-year University mathematics can be written using structured derivations. Such a derivation extends the calculational proof format with subderivations that allow inferences to presented at diierent levels of detail. By using structured derivations and a minimal amount of logical syntax, we can write solution to typical problems in ...
متن کاملLogic across the High School Curriculum
Here are some examples of fundamental issues that arise in high school mathematics. Students are puzzled by the assertion .9 = 1. After giving an excellent presentation1 concerning her extensions to the logic unit in a geometry course, Teacher A asked, ‘How do I respond when a student asks if it is true that the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180◦’? A freshman complains, I learned in primar...
متن کاملTesting Cognitive Science Principles in a Middle School Mathematics Curriculum
Is student learning enhanced when a math curriculum is revised using research-based principles? The National Center for Cognition and Mathematics Instruction, funded by the US Department of Education, aims to determine whether and how applying research to practice improves student outcomes. A full year of student and teacher materials for Grade 7 math were revised according to principles of vis...
