It became apparent to myself that the need to research the effect of Manipulatives and Games on students’ interest and performance in Mathematics. Mathematics is a very important subject and so it concepts should be delivered properly to students. “I also believe we have to revamp the way we teach the subject from the very start-the early-childhood level. We have a serious phobia when it comes

Rhodes University Mathematics Education Project‚ South Africa R.Spanneberg@ru.ac.za This paper is a report of a study into the impact of a professional development programme designed to bring about changes in the classroom practices of teachers and change in their beliefs and attitudes. The programme is offered to in-service teachers of mathematics over a period of two years. The study is focussed on the assumption that what a teacher believes about mathematics and teaching mathematics is integrally

DMT was first synthesized in 1931 by Canadian chemist Richard Helmuth Fredrick Manske (1901–1977).[10][11] Its discovery as a natural product is generally credited to Brazilian chemist and microbiologist Oswaldo Gonçalves de Lima (1908–1989) who‚ in 1946‚ isolated an alkaloid he named nigerina (nigerine) from the root bark of jurema preta‚ that is‚ Mimosa tenuiflora.[11][12][13] However‚ in a careful review of the case Jonathan Ott shows that the empirical formula for nigerine determined by Gonçalves

“The senses are points of contact with the environment." How does activity with sensorial materials encourage observation and perception of the environment? “It is through contact with and exploration of the environment‚ that the intelligence builds up its store of operational ideas without which its abstract functioning lacks both foundation and inspiration".

History of Mathematics Compare and contrast mathematics in India and China in the period 213 BCE to 1425 CE. India and China prepared the main contributions in the past for mathematics that has influenced mathematics in today’s day and age‚ with numerous discoveries that would inspire the world of mathematics to an unimaginable degree. The period 213 BCE and 1425 CE is important to examine just because we believe that this was the approximate time of the Buddhist missionaries‚ were they travelled
