Vygotsky's sociocultural theory - This is the transmission of culture to a new generation (values, beliefs, customs, and skills) Social interaction is necessary (cooperative dialogues with more knowledgeable members of society) you with others how you should learn. Human Development - a field of study devoted to understand consistency and change throughout the lifespan environment contexts for development - is unique combinations of personal (genetic) and environment circumstances can res...

Abstract We report on the professional learning of a small purposive sample of teachers beginning to teach an English post-16 mathematics course centred around contextualised problem solving. We describe their accounts of change, their intentions and justification for those, and how development was supported. The demands of the course require ‘boundary crossing’ between contexts and mathematics that was novel for these teachers and their students, and learning to teach for such approac...

The goal of the Bittinger Concepts and Applications Series is to help today’s student learn and retain mathematical concepts. This proven program prepares students for the transition from skills-ori ented elementary algebra courses to more concept-oriented college-level mathematics courses. This requires the development of critical-thinking skills: to reason mathematically, to communicate mathematically, and to identify and solve mathematical problems. 

What are two strategies for planning mathematics lessons for all learners? Provide graphic organizers and tables for students to organize their work Include think-pair-share opportunities for students to discuss math concepts Which two strategies could be part of a lesson plan that uses a think-aloud strategy rather than peer-assisted learning? The teacher discusses alternative methods of solving the problem. The teacher talks through the steps of a solution, identifying the reas...
