"Ways to Think About Mathematics" provides teacher trainers, CPD coordinators, and heads of mathematics departments with all the necessary tools to provide high-quality staff development in secondary mathematics. The materials have been successfully tried and tested in a wide variety of professional development and initial teacher training settings. These guides and the accompanying CD-ROM contain: a range of practical activities; commentary on the activities; pedagogical suggestions (sequencing of materials, promoting active participation, adapting to the needs of particular teachers); various solution strategies; additional reading and problems tied to the content of the main text; and, sample solutions for all problems and discussion questions. The pack consists of "Ways to Think About Mathematics: Activities and Investigations for Grade 6-12 Teachers" and "The Facilitator's Guide To Ways To Think About Mathematics". "Ways to Think About Mathematics" fills the gap between what maths teachers learned in college and what they are required to teach in today's classrooms. Focusing on algebraic, geometric, and statistical ideas, the book gives teachers the opportunity to learn and understand the same maths concepts and maths problems that they will be teaching. "The Facilitator's Guide To Ways To Think About Mathematics" is designed for use in staff development workshops, and is also appropriate for initial teacher education courses in secondary mathematics.
