In this course we have been exploring children’s developing sense of number with particular focus on the multiplicative reasoning through multiplication and division. During the recent placement I have been working closely with 5 pupils in primary 5 [Annie, John, Kelly, Mia and Oscar]. Pseudonyms have been used to protect the children’s identities. They were selected through discussion with the class teacher [CT]. According to the CT these 5 children are in the lowest ability group working at First

This week’s programming assignment was really enjoyable. I enjoyed writing code for the basic calculator. In total, I spent approximately three and a half hours working on it. I probably spent more time making adjustments than writing the actual code. Defining the functions was pretty straightforward, so I did not run into any trouble while working on that part. After calling and testing the newly defined functions a few times, I was able to make them work as planned. The provided pseudo code helps

There is an assumption here that left and right is well understood in a multidimensional scenario. Since I was raised in the USA I think of number lines being arranged with lesser numbers on the left. It is possible that people from other cultures may have other legitimate ways of arranging things. You will have to know which way your mathematical community does things. Definition is everything in Math. I will assume that m is the number of sub-divisions of the x direction and that n is the number

In Algebra (Part 1) level A case 1, we have a student named Sam who is in the ninth grade that is struggling with basic operations in algebra. Algebra is a subject that consist of building blocks. If the fundament is not strong and secure, then any additional concept or skill will fall apart. It is the beginning of the school year and Sam’s algebra class is reviewing the basic concepts of algebra which was taught briefly in the previous school year. Most students in Sam’s class were able to recall

About 45% of all jobs in the United States are not based on STEM, all of which are to disappear in the near future. Developments in advanced Robotics are going to replace jobs that do not involve technical knowledge (even the professionals aren’t safe!), and truth is that graduates need to be ready for this future. High school students should be taught technology as a gateway course. Technology is a part of STEM education, which is needed in much of the future workforce. By 2018, it is projected

Introduction: Statistics can be gathered and presented in a variety of different formats. In the situation requiring a group's opinions to be gathered, polls are an effective choice. Polls allow an individual or organisation to view the separated opinions within a group while maintaining anonymity. Within a poll, one or more predefined options are presented to the respondent, allowing them to select the answer that is most
