Riassunto

<b>Reverse mathematics trauma and find a universal blueprint for math success</b> <p>In <i>Mathematical Mindsets: Unleashing Students' Potential through Creative Math, Inspiring Messages and Innovative Teaching</i> mathematics education expert and best-selling author Jo Boaler delivers a blueprint to banishing math anxiety and laying a foundation for mathematics success that anyone can build on. <p>Perfect for students who have been convinced they are naturally "bad at math," the author offers a demonstration of how to turn self-doubt into self-confidence by relying on the "mindset" framework. <p><i>Mathematical Mindsets</i> is based on thousands of hours of in-depth study and research into the most effective&mdash;and ineffective&mdash;ways to teach math to young people. This new edition also includes: <ul> <li>Brand-new research from the last five years that sheds brighter light on how to turn a fear of math into an enthusiastic desire to learn</li> <li>Developed ideas about ways to bring about equitable grouping in classrooms</li> <li>New initiatives to bring 21st century mathematics to K-12 classrooms</li> </ul> <p><i>Mathematical Mindsets</i> is ideal for K-12 math educators. It also belongs on the bookshelves of the parents interested in helping their K-12 children with their math education, as well as school administrators and educators-in-training.

Dalla quarta di copertina

<p><b>An accessible roadmap to applying the latest math education research to real-world classrooms</b></p> <p>&#8220;Mistakes, struggles, creativity, beauty, flexibility, equity&#8212;Jo Boaler uses these words to describe a vision of mathematics where every student thrives and becomes a mathematical thinker. By following Boaler&#8217;s roadmap, perhaps we can once and for all lay to rest decades of archaic and destructive notions about what it takes to be good at math.&#8221; <BR><b>&#8212;Cathy Seeley,</b> Past President, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and author of <i>Faster Isn&#8217;t Smarter</i> and <i>Smarter Than We Think</i> <p>&#8220;Jo Boaler is justifiably tired of all the uninformed BS about math education. Too many children&#8217;s lives are being harmed. In this book, she takes the gloves off and comes out fighting. Her weapon? Scientific data. Lots of it. A readable, engaging, compelling case for revolutionizing math education. Ignore her message and you (or your children, or your students) will be locked out of much of the 21st Century.&#8221; <BR><b>&#8212;Dr. Keith Devlin,</b> Stanford University mathematician, NPR &#8220;Math Guy,&#8221; and author of <i>Mathematics Education for a New Era</i> <p>&#8220;Jo Boaler calls out the mindsets that can limit a student&#8217;s aptitude for math and ways to change them. More than just a replacement set of positive messages, Jo&#8217;s book elaborates practical, research-tested strategies for teaching, assessment, practice, and homework&#8212;all to help a student learn and love to learn mathematics.&#8221; <BR><b>&#8212;Dan Meyer, </b>former math teacher, Dean of Research at Desmos, author, and consultant <p>In the newly revised <i>Second Edition</i> of <i>Mathematical Mindsets: Unleashing Students&#8217; Potential through Creative Mathematics, Inspiring Messages and Innovative Teaching,</i> distinguished Stanford math education professor Jo Boaler demonstrates what it takes to help students become high achievers in mathematics. Filled with brand-new material and updated references, the book integrates a social justice perspective and new research regarding the teaching of data science and math gathered over the past five years.
