KEEP THE PARTS SEPERATE– 250+ Words for EACHPART 1- 250 WordsIn Wk 1, we discussed current instructional theories for the teaching of mathematics. Now let us take a closer look at content standards, the scaffolding and progression in the curriculum, and resources, including technology, for mathematics. Instruction in mathematics has traditionally been taught focusing on isolated skills that build on one another. How can real-life scenarios, including problem solving, be incorporated into instruction to facilitate learning? How will you incorporate technology to engage learners in addressing local and global issues? What considerations might you need to make to ensure the safe and ethical use of technology? Explain and provide specific examples to support your responses.PART 2- 250 WordsLast week, you had the opportunity to research and learn about technology resources for secondary mathematics instruction with your learning team. The emphasis for this week’s learning will be on assessing student learning and utilizing assessment data to inform instruction. What are some alternative assessment strategies available to teachers in addition to tests, quizzes, and homework assignments? What are the advantages and disadvantages of these alternative assessments? How do student errors provide valuable information about their mathematical understanding? Explain and provide specific examples to support your responses.
