Recensione

"This is an excellent book. If every elementary teacher does not have one, it should at least be available in the school's professional library." (Anne Giddings, Assistant Superintendent 2005-11-11)

"The book encapsulates the standards well and will make a good resource for new teachers who might not necessarily have the time to read the entire NCTM standards book." (Carol Amos, Teacher Leader/Mathematics Coordinator 2005-11-28)

"The research and vignettes that follow each strategy clearly support why the strategy is important and how it can be effective. Teachers who read this, reflect on the content, and discuss it with other teachers will be on track to implement the strategies in their classrooms." (Trish Guinee, Mathematics Coordinator 2005-11-27)

"The book is very easy to follow, with practical, research based strategies for the teacher to use. It also provides me some insight to better remediate students that are struggling." (Allen Stevens, Math/Science Teacher 2005-11-22)

"The 'Precautions and Pitfalls" section is such a welcome feature! This is a powerful book for beginning teachers, or seasoned teachers who want to improve their practice to ensure student learning." (Rhonda Naylor, Math Teacher/Coordinator 2005-11-27)

"In this book, you'll find out how to build on students' enthusiasm through research-based teaching strategies, vignettes, and supporting discussions, all based on NCTM standards." (Learning Magazine, October 2006)

"The authors methodically define a strategy that meets a NCTM goal, define the NCTM goal specifically, state the research that supports the goal, and provide a compilation of stories that depict one teacher’s pedagogy that meets the goal." (MAA Reviews, December 2006 2008-08-07)

L'autore

Edward S. Wall is assistant professor of elementary mathematics education at the City College of the City University of New York. In 1968 he received his MA in mathematics at the University of Maryland and, after a number of years working as an applied mathematician, received a Sloan Foundation Fellowship for the purposes of pursuing a PhD in mathematical biology at the University of Chicago. Along the way, he became intrigued by the very notion of teaching mathematics and, after several years, found himself deeply involved in full-time K-12 mathematics teaching. In 2003 he received a PhD in mathematics education at the University of Michigan and subsequently joined the faculty at City College. He still finds himself intrigued by the very notion of teaching mathematics and his research reflects that fascination.
