Methodology of Teaching Mathematics


-The best Math teachers are those who not only have an understanding of the content but also have a firm grasp of how maths is learned-teachers who are knowledgeable about theories of child development and can appreciate how students come to know and be able to do maths.


-...the learning of maths is very dependent on good teaching.Now, to know maths is one thing, and to be able to teach it-to communicate it to those at a lower conceptual level is quite another
(The Psychology of Learning Mathematics (1971), Richard Skemp, p.36)


-Constructivism believes that knowledge cannot be passively transmitted from one individual to another but knowledge is built up or constructed from within as we have experiences in our lives


-Learning maths extends beyond learning concepts,procedures and their applications.It also includes developing a dispotion toward mathematics and seeing mathematics as a powerful way for looking at situations (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics,NCTM, 1989,p.233)
