The New Art And Science Of Teaching Mathematics

In The New Art and Science of Teaching Mathematics, authors Nathan D. Lang-Raad and Robert J. Marzano describe, in detail, how the New Art and Science of Teaching model should be used in the mathematics classroom. Readers will discover myriad math strategies, tools, and methods of teaching mathematics for every step of the process, from articulating learning targets and conducting math lessons to engaging students, tracking progress, and celebrating successes.

Use this teaching resource to implement research-based best practices in teaching maths:

• Explore how The New Art and Science of Teaching framework can help you optimise your methods and establish best practices in teaching mathematics.
• Become familiar with the 10 design areas and 43 elements of effective teaching strategies that make up the framework.
• Develop an understanding of which of the 43 elements of instruction are most effective in the mathematics classroom and in which types of lessons they should be used when teaching mathematics.
• Use each chapter's Guiding Questions for Curriculum Design to support planning and aid in reflection as a mathematics teacher.
• Discover a four-step process designed to help you deepen your expertise of math teaching strategies.

Recognising that the New Art system was originally created as a general model of instruction, the authors adapt the model to the instruction of mathematics in order to address how instruction changes in a particular subject area. Thus, the authors explain each of the ten design areas and the forty-three elements of instruction within those design areas originally laid out in Robert Marzano's The New Art and Science of Teaching, as well as how they should be addressed in the mathematics classroom. In addition to explanation of the design areas, the authors also provide numerous strategies and methods for implementation that mathematics instructors will find invaluable in their own use of the New Art model in the classroom.

In this book, readers will find a detailed and well-researched guide to the implementation of the New Art model of instruction that will allow them to pursue implementation of improved student outcomes
