If students don't perceive they have the ability to learn math they won't put forth the efforts necessary to master math concepts and skills. One way to engage and motivate students is to deliver math instruction in a collaborative learning environment. This approach helps students spend more time being active learners during class periods.
Carnegie Learning develops and publishes textbooks to support a collaborative classroom. Our classroom activities address both mathematical content and process standards. Students develop skills to work cooperatively to solve problems. Additionally, they improve their reasoning and communication skills.
Our consumable textbooks provide an opportunity for extended investigations, analysis and alternate solution paths. Each student is given a text that they can write in whether it is taking notes, highlighting key data in a problem, solving a problem, or writing complete sentences to describe problem solving strategies.
We use real-world situations in our math problems. We help students see how math is relevant in our daily lives. Our math problems are designed to emphasize connections between verbal, numeric, graphic and algebraic representations.
