Special Initiatives: Math Netbook Project
Title:
Math Netbook Project
Description:
Students with poor identities in math see themselves as only being partly involved in math classrooms, incapable of doing math, and see math presented in the classroom as being irrelevant to their life. This project proposes that netbook computers and a printer be added the classroom so that the teacher and students can engage in two major math projects throughout the year using access to information over the internet and manipulation of information in Microsoft Excel. Through these activities, it is hoped that students’ math identities will be affected in a positive way by fostering engagement within a team and allowing situations for students to show capability in creating solutions to real life mathematical problems.
