1. According to Zbiek, Heid & Blme’s research, what student abilities are involved when students achieve representational fluency. (Strategy: 3-D viewer).

2. In what ways do math models help students move away from the notion that mathematics is “nothing more than facts and faith”.

3. How did teacher Don Bloch use Inductive Learning strategy in teaching the concept definition of equations?

Solution

1.Ans

According to Zbiek, Heid & Blme’s research, representational fluency involves the following three abilities:

i. The ability to translate ideas of mathematic and meanings across all the different representations.

ii. The ability to express meaning about a mathematical concept from multiple representations of concepts.

iii. The ability of generalizations by the use of information collected from different representations.

2. Ans:

By the following things Models help students move away from the notion that mathematics is “nothing more than facts and faith”:

i) Students can see the models

ii) Students can touch and experience the models

iii) Students can manipulate math directly.

By this way they become master of its elements and they appreciate power of maths.

3. Ans:

Teacher Don Bloch uses examples and discovering the definition of equations.This strategy is known as the Inductive Learning strategy in teaching the concept definition of equations.
