During the close observation‚ I noticed that throuhout this activity Harry was very focused and calm. He did not required any support or scaffolding from the teacher. I have known this student for over two years and I know that his goal most of the time is to accomplish tasks. During this math activity Harry verbally indentified all of the shpes he used (dimond instead of rhombus). He acquired new gerometry related vocabulary by learning from the teacher that dimond shape in geometry/math is called

Justification of Higher Education Choices Choices: The two courses I have chosen are: Occupational Therapy and Computational Mathematics. I have chosen Occupational Therapy as will give the opportunity to learn within a small cohort which means there will be more support from my professors. It will also help me gain skills in problem solving and analysis‚ help me develop skills in teamwork and help me recognize the expanding types of work for occupational therapists. Also‚ I am interested in Occupational

For too many students‚ mathematics has little or no connection to their real-world experience. Previously‚ I thought that this stemmed primarily from a lack of understanding of mathematical concepts. While that deficiency certainly is an important factor‚ I am becoming more convinced that students don’t appreciate the power of mathematics largely because of an inability to represent‚ visualize and model word problems. Research has found that students solve math word problems using one of two

This program will let the user enter all the names of their family members‚ the ages of those family members‚ and their state of residence. The program will display the average age of all family members input‚ and also display the names of any family members that live in Texas. We will create three separate arrays; one for the names of the family members‚ another for their ages‚ and the third will be for their state of residence. We’ll first ask the user to enter the number of family members he

influenced by outside factors we can rely on some basic rules and concepts to help navigate the solution. Non-proof based mathematics lacks the deductive reasoning that proof-based mathematics offers. It is much like observation-based mathematics – the answer may be right but there exists no understanding of how or why. The ancient Egyptians used a non-proof based system of mathematics and often did not get their math correct. For instance‚ they used an incorrect formula to find the area of a quadrilateral

Using Polynomials in the “Real World” Polynomial functions are used in our everyday lives in a few different ways‚ this includes art‚ architecture‚ construction‚ financial planning‚ and manufacturing. We can also calculate how long it will take one person to do a job alone when we know how long it takes a group to get it done as well. Farmers on crop farms work dawn to dusk through the growing season to produce the grains‚ fruits‚ and vegetables that feed the country. These equations help them
