Materials were written for an entire year's course in geometry in which transformations were used to develop the concepts of congruence, similarity, and symmetry, as well as being a vehicle for proof.
To learn the geometric concept of transformations this year, Crystal Watson’s eighth-graders drew up blueprints of apartments. As they worked, she asked them to imagine designing affordable housing ...
New methods for the estimation of optimal transformations of random variables are proposed here. These methods have a much wider applicability. The attractiveness of these methods is that they are ...
Imagine a classroom full of bright young students, all striving to do their best on a high school math test. They sit, heads slightly bowed, pencils ready, each one thinking about how to tackle each ...
Instead of memorization and lectures in classrooms, SESP Prof. Jen Munson, who studies learning science, envisions a transformation in primary education where young students learn from games and fun ...
