Teaching Number: Advancing Children's Skills and Strategies
Robert J Wright , Garry Stanger , Ann K Stafford , and James Martland Manufacturer: Paul Chapman Educational Publishing ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 1412921856 |
Book Description
The book lets teachers identify where their students are in terms of number skills, and sets out a strategy for developing their knowledge. The authors show how to advance children's learning across five stages of early arithmetical learning - emergent, perceptual, figurative, initial number, and facile number. This provides for increasingly sophisticated number strategies across addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as well as developing children's number word and numeral knowledge, and their ability to structure number and have grouping strategies. The approach used nine guiding principles for teaching.Each chapter has clearly defined teaching procedures which show how to take the children onto the next more sophisticated stage. The teaching procedures are organized into key teaching topics, and each includes:
o a clearly defined purpose
o detailed instructions, activites, learning tasks and reinforcing games
o lists of responses which children may make
o application in whole class, small group and individualised settings
o a link to the Learning Framework in Number (see Early Numeracy- second edition, 2005)
o how the guiding principles for teaching can be used to allow teachers to evaluate and reflect upon their practice
Primary practitioners in Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada have tested the teaching procedures which can be used in conjunction with each country's numeracy strategy.
Primary teachers, especially of the early years, mathematics co-ordinators, heads of school, mathematics advisers, special educationalists, learning support personnel, teacher assistants, lecturers in initial teacher training and educational psychologists will all find this book invaluable.

Management Strategies - A Critique of Theories and Practices
Samuel Eilon Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 0792385578 |
Book Description
The task of management has become increasingly complex in recent years. Chief executives and senior managers are confronted with the daunting challenge of making sense of a myriad of variables that affect the performance of business systems and of determining causal relationships that underlie seemingly unstructured problems. A wide gulf now exists between theory and practice in the field of management. Pronouncements by theorists have become increasingly unintelligible to practitioners, while practical propositions by management consultants - often presented as recipes derived from experience and case studies - often lack any firm theoretical foundation and are largely based on limited and unreliable hard evidence. This has given rise to many fashions in the way management is practised. The trouble with fashionable doctrines is that they come and go. And while they are in vogue, they can lead to the adoption of what may be regarded as management mispractices, namely practices rooted in questionable beliefs, which are based on false premises. This book is written for managers, management consultants, and students of management, including business school faculty. The range of topics included here should provoke the reader to ponder on the complexities of the multi-faceted managerial scene and to question the basis of many managerial practices as well as the validity of theories propounded in the literature.
