The
knowledge forms and changes through the process. Therefore, it is more
important for pupils to learn to connect and to arrange information through
experiences and observations than to learn to memorize single facts. A pupil
constructs connections actively between new information and his/her own data
structure. The more there are these connections, the more useful the
information in question is to the pupil.
When
approaching a new concept classification gives a good method for student to
arrange previous understanding and knowledge. During
classifying pupil begin to arrange the concept on the base of it’s properties. Classifying
supports active learning, pupils are talking with their pair or group.
In Paths to
Math we use e.g. classification when pupils are approaching a new concept or strengthening
one. For example we use this method in classifying solids, surface areas, terms
etc.
In general
Mathematics is believed to be a field only accessible to people with innate
abilities. Based in experience and
results we believe that Mathematics is accessible to all given different methods
used for teaching and learning. More you find from www.pathstomath.com
