Bottge's ' Reconceptualizing Mathematics Problem Solving For Low Achieving Students' - Summary
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Learning theories are not merely a collection of arbitrary approaches for acquiring knowledge but rather are well-focused methods for reaching students. People cannot be lumped together as being a single entity when it comes to learning processes; borrowing from such renown scholars as Dewey, Wertheimer and Bruner, Bottge (2001) points out how 'the notion that problems must be engaging for students' (p. 102) is not a new concept. In order to penetrate the limitations inherent to low achieving students where mathematical comprehension is concerned, Bottge (2001) expounds upon the need to incorporate student autonomy and quality of life into the fundamental approach to learning.

Brainstorming As Pre-Reading Exercise In ESL Classrooms
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper. One of the many challenges the teacher faces when teaching non-English speaking students reading skills is context.

Brainstorming is one of the techniques being used as a pre-reading exercise in ESL classrooms to help students understand what they are about to read. This paper explains the brainstorming technique and the reasons for using it. Examples are also included. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Brantlinger's "Dividing Classes: How The Middle Class Negotiates And Justifies School Advantage" - Reflective
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Struggling within a society where class structure is all-important to one's social standing is difficult enough for adults who work hard to assimilate into communities otherwise segregated by economic barriers; however, children have long been the unwitting victims of such social stratification by way of an unjust educational system manipulated by and for the middle class. The extent to which Ellen A. Brantlinger's book entitled Dividing Classes: How the Middle Class Negotiates and Justifies School Advantage pointedly addresses the socioeconomic injustice of caste influence upon academic achievement is both grand and far-reaching; that such issues as standardized testing, vouchers and mainstreaming at-risk students epitomize the power of middle class influence speaks to an educational system that fails to provide for its minority populations.
