- More about Towards Deep Understanding Of Elementary School Mathematics: A Brief Companion For Teacher Educators And Others
The book is a brief companion for mathematical educators of elementary teacher candidates, informed by mathematics teaching and learning standards from the United States, Australia, Canada, Chile, England, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and South Africa. It emphasizes the power of visualization, physical materials, and computer technology, and covers historical aspects of elementary school mathematics, such as the binary system and base-ten arithmetic.
Format: Hardback
Length: 312 pages
Publication date: 15 July 2022
Publisher: World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd
The book is a comprehensive resource for mathematical educators working with elementary teacher candidates who study mathematics within college of education programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Drawing inspiration from mathematics teaching and learning standards across the United States, Australia, Canada, Chile, England, Japan, Korea, Singapore, and South Africa, this book offers international applicability. The teaching methodologies emphasize the use of visualization, physical materials, and support for computer technology, including spreadsheet, Wolfram Alpha, and the Geometer's Sketchpad. The core concepts encompass the development of number concepts, the base-ten system, problem-solving and posing, the emergence of fractions in real-life contexts, the extension of whole number arithmetic to include decimals, percent, ratio, geoboard geometry, elements of combinatorics, probability, and data analysis. Additionally, the book delves into historical aspects of elementary school mathematics, providing insights into the origins of two-sided counters, which trace back to the binary system in ancient China during the 1st millennium BC. The foundation of base-ten arithmetic can be traced back to the Egyptian mathematics of the 4th millennium BC, which was further enriched with the introduction of Hindu-Arabic numerals in 12th-century Europe.
