Teaching Secondary and Middle School Mathematics combines the latest
developments in research, technology, and standards with a vibrant
writing style to help teachers prepare for the excitement and
challenges of teaching secondary and middle school mathematics. The
book explores the mathematics teaching profession by examining the
processes of planning, teaching, and assessing student progress
through practical examples and recommendations. Beginning with an
examination of what it means to teach and learn mathematics, the
reader is led through the essential components of teaching, concluding
with an examination of how teachers continue with professional
development throughout their careers. Hundreds of citations are used
to support the ideas presented in the text, and specific websites and
other resources are presented for future study by the reader.
Classroom scenarios are presented to engage the reader in thinking
through specific challenges that are common in mathematics classrooms.
The sixth edition has been updated and expanded with particular
emphasis on the latest technology, resources, and standards. The
reader is introduced to the ways that students think and how to best
meet their needs through planning that involves attention to
differentiation, as well as how to manage a classroom for success.
Features include: The entire text has been reorganized so that
assessment takes a more central role in planning and teaching. Unit 3
(of 5) now addresses the use of summative and formative assessments to
inform classroom teaching practices. ● A new feature, "Links and
Resources," has been added to each of the 13 chapters. While the book
includes a substantial listing of citations and resources after the
chapters, five strongly recommended and practical resources are
spotlighted at the end of each chapter as an easy reference to some of
the most important materials on the topic. ● Approximately 150 new
citations have either replaced or been added to the text to reflect
the latest in research, materials, and resources that support the
teaching of mathematics. ● A Quick Reference Guide has been added to
the front of the book to assist the reader in identifying the most
useful chapter features by topic. ● A significant revision to
Chapter 13 now includes discussions of common teaching assessments
used for field experiences and licensure, as well as a discussion of
practical suggestions for success in methods and student teaching
experiences. ● Chapter 9 on the practical use of classroom
technology has been revised to reflect the latest tools available to
classroom teachers, including apps that can be run on handheld,
personal devices. An updated Instructor’s Manual features a test
bank, sample classroom activities, Powerpoint slides, chapter
summaries, and learning outcomes for each chapter, and can be accessed
by instructors online at www.routledge.com/9780367146511
