    ____________

    This Sourcebook highlights the dynamic nature of teaching and learning mathematics. This dynamism is one feature of constructivism. In constructivism, learners use what they already know to make sense of the world as they interact with the physical, social, and cultural environments. Constructivism advocates that teachers should be facilitators of learners' active constructions.

    Many opportunities for learners to do mathematics are provided in the Sourcebook. They must be able to think for themselves, to reason and explain, to discover connections, and to reflect and consolidate their learning. In the end, they should develop confidence in their ability to do and create mathematics, recognize and apply mathematics in their everyday activities and appreciate the importance of mathematics. These can be enhanced in an environment that is friendly, and where ideas are welcomed and respected.

  • High School Physics Education Group ISBN 971-570-055-1 Published by NISMED January 2000

    Price: ₱ 300.00 No of Pages: 277

    ____________

    The main objective of this Sourcebook is to provide teacher trainers exemplar activities which would facilitate the learning of the abstract physics concepts and help them acquire the necessary practical laboratory and thinking skills for the effective teaching of physics.

    This Sourcebook was written in two volumes. Volume I is divided into three parts. Part I presents a brief write-up on practical work. It gives some ideas on designing practical activities, tips on managing a classroom using practical work as a strategy and suggestions on how practical skills may be assessed.

    Part II provides a discussion of some experimental techniques and guidelines on how to deal with experimental data. The exemplar activities included in Part III are in the areas of mechanics, mechanical waves and sound and optics. In each area a concept map showing the structure of the concepts involved is included.

    ____________

    This sourcebook highlights the dynamic nature of the process of teaching and learning mathematics. As in the first volume, it provides the teacher trainer examples of teaching plans that promote the use of practical work. Practical work is consistent with the social constructivist view of learning which postulates that learners actively construct knowledge from their own experiences and that while these constructions are personal and unique to each individual, it occurs within a social setting. The activities in the teaching plan aim to develop and deepen the learners understanding of mathematical concept s and principles and enhance their ability to think and engage in life-long learning. They provide rich experiences in investigating relationships among mathematical concepts and principles and in posing and solving problems.

    ____________

    Who hasn't played with soap bubbles? Everyone must have enjoyed playing with them. Through the story "The Secret of Fantastic Bubbles," two messages are shown.

    First, we should know how to think and do things which are within our abilities and which are suited to our environment. Blind copying is not good because it can strain relationships and cause undue frustrations. Second, we should have the habit of giving priority to doing important things. And we should do those important things first in our list of things to do. But what really are considered important thing? In this story, an example of a very important thing to do is given especially among community leaders: Keep the environment clean and green.

    This story may be used as motivation, supplementary materials, or part of a topic in K to 12 Grade 3 and 4.

    ____________

    This book is based on the result of a study to investigate the elementary school children’s knowledge of English non-technical words used in teacher-pupil interactions and mathematics classes. The facility of each of the 385 non-technical words in the WELS World List for each grade level (grades 4, 5 and 6) by regions (Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao) and by school types (public barrio, town, and private) was determined.

    The report includes the test developed to measure the difficulty levels of each word. The discussion and the implications of the findings for teaching and curriculum development highlight the significance of the study in relation to the goals of science and mathematics education.
