Leder gruppdiskussioner i matematik och naturvetenskap till att elever lär sig mer av ämnesinnehållet? Det ska ett nytt forskningsprojekt som beviljats medel av Skolforskningsinstitutet ta reda på.

Craig Barton ändrade allt i sin undervisning när han insåg hur långtidsminnet fungerar och hur lärande måste bygga på det.

Students to show the work they did to solve math equations, writes math teacher Michelle Russell. In this blog post, Russell shares a grading rubric that she says helps ensure students understand math concepts and are able to communicate that knowledge.

Data science can help apply math concepts to students' daily lives, making the subject applicable to STEM and other subjects, including public policy, social justice and health care, writes Pamela Burdman, executive director of the nonprofit Just Equations. Analyzing data teaches students how to think critically, Burdman writes in the commentary, and the results of…

Teachers can help parents overcome their own math anxiety to support their children, writes Jessica Banda, a third-grade dual-language teacher in Dallas. In this blog post, Banda writes that she has her students model growth mindset for their parents and that she works to curb misunderstanding of so-called "new math" taught under the Common Core…

Elever i årskurs 1 använder inte alltid matematikläroböcker som det var tänkt i undervisningen. Det konstaterar Malin Norberg som forskat om elevers arbete med matematikläroböcker. Nu har hennes avhandling valts till favorit av Skolportens lärarpanel.

After decades of classroom teaching and interviewing, renowned educators Marilyn Burns and Lynne Zolli developed Listening to Learn, a K–5 digital interview tool launching this spring. Now, teachers can truly understand how each of their students makes sense of math.

So often we miss opportunities to deepen our students’ thinking about mathematics - opportunities that would require just a few moments of our teacher time, if that.

A New York school district is restricting tracking in middle-school math, instead enrolling students of all abilities in the same courses and, at times, having students work in pairs or small groups. The change, adopted about two years ago, was meant to close the racial divide and improve performance among students in higher-level math courses…

An elementary-school teacher at a STEAM academy got creative with his science lesson, using a blond "Dog the Bounty Hunter"-like wig and a wave machine to deliver a virtual science experiment about erosion to second-graders. The experiment, part of a set of virtual science experiences called RadLabs.
