| Description: | This book addresses core recommendations by the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences — an umbrella organization consisting of sixteen professional societies in the United States—regarding the mathematical preparation of prospective teachers of high school mathematics. According to the Board, the concept of a capstone course in a mathematics education program includes teachers'learning to use commonly available educational software with the goal to reach a certain depth of the mathematics curriculum through appropriately designed computational experiments. In turn, the notion of experiment in the teaching of mathematics sets up a path toward enhancing the “E” component of the teachers'literacy in the STEM disciplines. This book discusses experiences in teaching a computer-enhanced capstone course for the teachers. (Imprint: Nova Press) |
