  • - Strategies to teach Mathematics in the Secondary School so it sticks
    af Phil Murray
    448,95 kr.

    This book was conceived with the trainee Secondary Mathematics teacher in mind, because its author saw how frequently new teachers would struggle to identify what were the critical issues about the lesson they were about to teach for the first time tomorrow, and their poor beleaguered Heads of Department were too busy to help. But even the "round the block a few times" teacher will find many new ideas here. And while it is not explicitly written with them in mind, others engaged in getting the young people to get it - teaching assistants, tutors and parents - might find some enlightenment. Practical advice for how to teach each topic tomorrow morning. Guidance on what students find hard to follow, how to explain the idea clearly, the misconceptions to manage, and how to provide for future recall. Not a textbook, not a treatise on teaching, but useful immediate support for the mathematical pedagogue.

    At the mere mention of the name 'Gelignite' Jack Murray, any Australian from the Baby Boomer era or older can't help but to crack a smile. Murray was best known as the rally driver who in 1954 won the REDEX Round Australia Reliability Trial without the loss of a single point; but Jack's sporting interests and achievements were eclectic and far-ranging. In his own words, at different times throughout his life he was 'engaged in various sports with various successes' cycling; VFL schoolboy football; stock car racing; hill climbing motor races; circuit car racing; car endurance events; Australian and NSW Grand Prix racing; international and Australian rally driving; wrestling; boxing; crocodile, kangaroo, and buffalo hunting; ocean boat racing and waterskiing--to name most, but not all. Oh yes--Jack even raced a bathtub once, plug in. Jack Murray died in 1983. Encounters with those who met him, knew him and loved him now grow fewer and fewer, as the years pass and the Reliability Trials of the 1950s drift into Australian history and folklore. Jack's personal and nonpublic life, showing the man behind the derring-do, has never been fully explored or written about.
