Reflection on Micro Teaching

Instrumental vs. Relational Understanding

When I was reading Skemp’s lengthy article, the first thing that triggered my thoughts and got me stopped for awhile was the fact that I had never thought about understating math distinctively, and by reading the article, I realized that I did learn a lot about relational and instrumental understanding / mathematics and the difference between them, the two terms which were completely came new to me at the beginning of the article. Soon I realized that; yes, there are in fact two different approaches to the teaching/learning mathematics. Although, I did not know much about the two understating before reading the article, the second thing that stopped me right away , and it even turned out to be a bit disturbing for me at first ,was remembering about my childhood mathematics studies! Having grown in Iran; the place that Math has been considered as the most important subjects of all, we were gett...

Revised Unit Plan

EDCP 342A Unit planning: Rationale and overview for planning a 3 to 4-week unit of work in secondary school mathematics Your name: Niloofar Razzaghi School, grade & course: R.E. Mountain Secondary School, Grade 11, Pre-Calculus Topic of unit: Radical Expressions & Equation s (1) Why do we teach this unit to secondary school students? Research and talk about the following: Why is this topic included in the curriculum? Why is it important that students learn it? What learning do you hope they will take with them from this? What is intrinsically interesting, useful, beautiful about this topic? (150 words) The goal is to show students how to solve equations with rational exponents and/or radicals. And to extend students' knowledge of solving to where an equation has either two radicals or two expressions with rational exponents. This lesson is taught to the grade 11 students and this topic is i...
