Integrating Writing into Mathematics Classroom to Increase Students' Problem Solving Sk... - 8 views

  •  
    Abstract: "Middle school students lack efficient problem solving skills due to several factors. The writing process has been linked to the development of students' problem solving skills. The present study investigated the impact of the writing process on the mathema tical problem solving skills for middle grades students. N = 96 students participated in a six weeks, after school STEM program, and they were randomly assigned into two groups: one focused on the writing process with mathematical problem solving and the o ther on homework/high stakes test preparation with mathematical problem solving. In this quantitative study, the results provide evidence that the students from the writing process group were more likely to generate and apply better problem solving skills as compared to the control group. This study further contributes to the support and importance of integrating different subjects across the generalized learning realm"

Writing in Mathematics: Assessing Understanding | Teaching Science and Math - 16 views

  •  
    Writing in math is an excellent way to determine if students' understand or do not understand the math they are learning about. Allowing students to explain how they solved a math problem, how they developed a formula to solve a problem, or how they applied a math concept requires critical thinking.

How to Encourage Critical Thinking in Science and Math | Teaching Science and Math - 28 views

  • Viewpoint
  • Implication
  • How could you ask that question differently?
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • What did you learn from solving this problem?
  • Is this the most important question to ask when solving the problem?
  • What questions need to be answered before answering this question?
  • What does this presume?
  • When you ask these and similar questions, you are encouraging your students to move from passive to active learning.
  • Avoiding Questions Easily Answered on the Internet
  • The following examples are referred to “Google-Proofing” in some circles.
  • the frequency of questions is not as important as the quality of questions.
  • the following are factors to consider when asking students questions.
  • The average level of questions asked by teachers are 60 percent lower cognitive, 20 percent procedural, and 20 percent higher cognitive. 
  • Increasing the frequency of higher cognitive questions to the 50
  • With predominate use of lower cognitive questions; students tend toward lower achievement
  • The use of higher cognitive questions tends to elicit longer student answers in complete sentences, quality inference and conjecture by students, and the forming of higher level questions.
  •  
    Encouraging students to use critical thinking is more than an extension activity in science and math lessons, it is the basis of true learning. Teaching students how to think critically helps them move beyond basic comprehension and rote memorization. They shift to a new level of increased awareness when calculating, analyzing, problem solving, and evaluating.
