Teaching and learning framework in mathematics
This document outlines a teaching and learning framework for mathematics education. It discusses important skills like critical thinking and problem solving. It also covers key content areas and processes to develop, like numbers, measurement, geometry, and representing and communicating. Principles for both teaching and learning mathematics are provided, such as the need for active engagement and using a variety of tools. Learning theories like constructivism, cooperative learning, and discovery-based learning are also referenced. Examples of experiential and reflective learning activities are given to help students learn mathematics concepts through real-world experiences and reflection.

- 4. Critical Thinking • Intellectuallydisciplined process of actively and skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizin g, and/or evaluating information gathered from, or generated by, observation, experience, reflection, reasoning , or communication, as a guide to belief and action (Scriven & Paul, 1987).

- 11. Teaching Principles inMathematics • Principle 1: While the ability to explain and solve a problem is evidence in good understanding of mathematical ideas, teaching mathematics requires more than this. • Principle 2: Mathematics must be real to students and therefore, mathematics teachers should be mindful of students contexts an when teaching mathematics.
- 12. Teaching Principles inMathematics • Principle 3: Mathematics is best learned when students are actively engaged. • Principle 4: Mathematics can never be learned in an instant, but rather requires lots of work and the right attitude. • Principle 5: All students regardless of gender, culture, socio0economic status, religion, and educational background have the right and be taught good and correct mathematics.
- 13. Teaching Principles inMathematics • Principle 6: Assessment must be an integral part of the mathematics instruction. • Principle 7: Mathematics as a field continues to develop and evolve. Therefore, the teaching if it must keep up with development in the field.
- 14. Teaching Principles inMathematics • Principle 8: Technology plays an important role in the teaching and learning of mathematics. Mathematics teachers must learn to use and manage technological tools and resources well. • Principle 9: Mathematics teachers must never stop learning.
- 15. Learning Principles inMathematics • Principle 1: Being mathematically competent means more than having the ability to compute and perform algorithms and mathematical procedures. • Principle 2: The physical and social dimension of a mathematical environment contribute to one’s success in learning mathematics.

- 18. Learning Principles andTheories • Experiential and Situated Learning • Reflective Learning • Constructivism • Cooperative Learning • Discovery and Inquiry-based Learning
- 19. Experiential and SituatedLearning • Experiential learning as advocated by David Kolb is learning that occurs by making sense of direct everyday experiences. • Experiential learning theory defines learning as "the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience. “ • Knowledge results from the combination of grasping and transforming experience" (Kolb, 1984, p. 41).
- 20. Experiential and SituatedLearning • Situated learning, theorized by Lave and Wenger, is learning in the same context on which concepts and theories are applied.
- 21. Reflective Learning • Reflectivelearning refers to learning that is facilitated by reflective thinking. • It is not enough that learners encounter real-life situations. • Deeper learning occurs when learners are able to think about their experiences and process these allowing them the opportunity to make sense and meaning of their experiences.
- 22. Constructivism • Constructivism isthe theory that argues that knowledge is constructed when the learner is able to draw ideas from his own experiences and connects them to new ideas that are encountered.
- 23. Cooperative Learning • CooperativeLearning puts premium on active learning achieved by working with fellow learners as they all engage in a shared task.
- 24. Discovery and Inquiry-basedlearning • The mathematics curriculum allows for students to learn by asking relevant questions and discovering new ideas. • Discovery and Inquiry-based learning (Bruner, 1961) support the idea that students learn when they make use of personal experiences to discover facts, relationships and concepts.
