About the Author

Cal Long received his undergraduate degree in Mathematics at the University of Idaho and his Ms and PhD in Mathematics at the University of Oregon. Since then, he has served as Professor of Mathematics at Washington State University for 36 years and, quite frequently, taught the two-semester mathematics content course for elementary school teachers.

He has also served as an invited speaker at international, national, and regional mathematics education meetings including at least 150 presentations at national and regional meetings of NCTM and state affiliates. Cal has conducted numerous in-service programs for elementary, middle school, and high school teachers and has directed numerous summer institutres for teachers, served as educational consultant for the National Science Foundation, for the National Assessment of Educational Progress, and for the Washington State Superintendent of Public Instruction. He also served on numerous committees for the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the Mathematical Association of America, including committees that drew up guidelines for the mathematical preparation of teachers.

Duane DeTemple received his BS degree in Applied Science from Portland State college, and went on to earn his MS and Ph. D. in mathematics from Stanford University. He has been on the mathematics faculty at Washington State University since 1970, where he became a full professor in 1985.

His research productivity includes nearly 100 papers in analysis, geometric probability, geometry, combinatorics, graph theory, and curriculum materials for K-12 classrooms. He was Boeing Distinguished Professor of Science and Mathematics Education for 2000-2002.

Dr. DeTemple's family is also committed to teaching: his wife Janet teaches violin, his daughter Jill is completing her Ph. D. in religious studies at the University of North Carolina, and his younger daughter Rachel is a high school English teacher. Professor DeTemple has interests in hiking, canoeing, and playing early music.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helpful, March 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mathematical Reasoning for Elementary Teachers (Hardcover)
I would recommend this book for anyone intrested in teaching younger children mathmatics. It starts on the basics such as addition and goes through geometery. It is very helpful in reminding adults how to do some basic math that we might have forgot. I used this book two semesters in a row at CSU Stainislaus. There isn't a single Liberal Study major who hasn't used this book. This book has "Highlights from History" that tell you about the people that created the different math ideas. "Hands On" gives you fun math activities to try and pieces from the NCTM standards and many more helpful articles throughout the chapters. This book makes teaching math intresting for you and the children you teach it to.

2.0 out of 5 stars not pleased, June 22, 2009
I am an education major and find this book to be confusing rather than helpful. I have not seen the fifth edition but would not recommend this one.
