Math 391 Test 1 - Questions With Detailed AnswersWhich choice reflects two factors that influence the teaching of
Mathematics effectively? ✔️Ans - Knowledge of standards and
practices.
The mathematical needs in society have changed and are influencing what
should be taught in pre K-8 mathematics classrooms. What statement
below reflects a key factor in the change? ✔️Ans - Data on
performance of U.S. students in national and international studies.
The National Assessment of Educational Progress... ✔️Ans - reported
in 2013 that less than half of all 4th and 8th graders performed on a
standardized mathematics test as the desirable levels of "proficient" or
"advanced".
The six Principles and Standards for School Mathematics articulate high-
quality mathematics education. What statement below represents the
equity principle? ✔️Ans - The message of high expectations for all is
intertwined with every other principle.
What is true about the learning principle? ✔️Ans - Learning is
strongly enhanced when students are encouraged to make and test their
own mathematical conjectures.
What statement reflects the Connections standard of the Five Process
Standards from Principles and Standards for School Mathematics?
✔️Ans - Students should be given opportunities to see how various
mathematical ideas relate to one another and to a variety of real-life
experiences.
One of the statements below represents a method for developing the
