What works and why

By Danaher M. Dempsey Jr. on August 2, 2009

Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase

This book is written by a Cognitive Psychologist who was a member of the National Math Advisory Panel.
As a math teacher I found this to be a great book. Parents might profit from reading the summaries and conclusions in the chapters. If your child has a specific difficulty in Math, this book may be of great value to you.

If your child just has difficulty with math in school, you probably would be better off with "Visible Learning" by John Hattie. He explains that for many kids what their school is doing is not evidence based. The school system may well be the source of the problem. He goes on to detail what practices produce evidence based positive results.

I really like both of these books. I think the non-professional will be better served by Hattie's "Visible Learning".

Required Reading for all...

By David. B. Tovey on December 23, 2010

Format: Hardcover

This book should be required reading by every math educator...especially elementary teachers, whose math backgrounds are typically not as strong as secondary math teachers (though their teaching skills may be flawless). It should also be required reading by administrators and school board members who make the decisions concerning what(and especially how) math is taught in our schools. Concerned parents could also learn much that would enable them to help their children learn math easier and provide better basic skills.
