from traditional teaching approaches and embrace an approach that promotes
learner engagement and meaning making.
1.1. Use your own words to explain what the above statement means for you.
(5)
The statement means that mathematics teachers should move away from traditional
methods of teaching, such as lecturing and memorization, and instead focus on
actively engaging students in the learning process. This approach encourages
students to make sense of mathematical concepts and develop a deeper
understanding of the subject.
1.2. Give THREE reasons why there should be a shift in the thinking about
mathematics teaching. (3)
Three reasons for a shift in thinking about mathematics teaching are:
- Traditional teaching methods may not effectively engage all students, leading to
disinterest and a lack of motivation to learn.
- Embracing a learner-centered approach can help students develop critical thinking
and problem-solving skills, which are essential in mathematics.
- Meaningful engagement in mathematics can lead to a deeper understanding of the
subject, which is crucial for success in higher-level math courses and in real-world
applications.
1.3. Comment on the following statement: ‘it is easier for a mathematics
teacher to teach through rote learning’. (2)
