This article shares the launch of a new online education game designed to teach five to eight year olds math skills.
International assessments show U.S. math students outperformed by those in many other countries. Research supported by NSF illuminates the role of teaching, curriculum and technology in math education, and demonstrates the importance of math education to all citizens.
This Issue Brief uses data from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, Kindergarten Class of 1998-99 (ECLS-K) to examine the scores of public-school language-minority students on a mathematics assessment in 1st grade, as well as the gain in their scores between 1st and 5th grades. Scores are reported by three background characteristics--student’s race/ethnicity, poverty status, and mother’s education--that have been found to be related to achievement.
This article gives an introduction on teaching mathematics with virtual manipulatives.
The focus of the report is on the performance of U.S. students relative to their peers in other countries in 2007, and on changes in mathematics and science achievement since 1995.
Really awesome website for 6th grade mathematics - think James Bond solving math problems. Pretty hip compared to other math sites!
A nice site with videos, games, puzzles, and math help for kids.
This is a commercial online math practice platform developed by MIT graduates to help students become better at mathematics through adaptive math practice. This system seemed to be intelligent as it is said to be adaptive and parents/teachers/administrator might be able to track students' progress.
