Using Student Blogs to Achieve Standards for Mathematical Practice - 0 views

  • In this article, I make a case for student blogs as a tool that can support and extend students’ mathematics proficiency through the Standards for Mathematical Practice.
  • Teachers who use math journals can easily convert that process to a digital one through blogging.
  • 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them

  • The act of blogging allows for: students to make their thinking visible students and teachers to give one another feedback students and teachers to keep a record of student progress with mathematics What follows is a definition of the eight Standards for Mathematical Practice and a description of how blogging can enhance and strengthen students’ use of these practices:   Teachers who use math journals can easily convert that process to a digital one through blogging.
  • 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
  • 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
  • 4. Model with mathematics.
  • 5. Use appropriate tools strategically.

What are the 4 R's Essential to 21st Century Learning? | HASTAC - 0 views

  • The classic "3 R's" of learning are, of course, Reading, 'Riting, and 'Rithmetic.  For the 21st century, we need to add a fourth R--and it will help inspire the other three:  Algorithm.  
  • Now in the 21st century, we need a similar expanded push towards the literacy that defines our era, computational literacy.    Algorithms are as basic to the way the 21st century digital age works as reading, writing, and arithmetic were to the late 18th century Industrial era.
  • Here's some of what the fourth "R" of "algorithms" adds to the standard syllabus of 21st century learning.  I'm sure others can add more: Algorithms and algorithmic thinking give kids of the 21st century the ability to write software and change programs to suit themselves, their own creativity, and their desire to self-publish their own multimedia work.

  • Some have argued that the most important 3 R's in education are really rigor, relevance, and relationships.   Adding "Algorithms" to reading, writing, and arithmetic also helps with that goal. 
  • The 4 R's.   Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, Algorithms.    Think about it!
