Knowing and Learning Mathematics for Teaching
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309072522
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 233
Book Description
There are many questions about the mathematical preparation teachers need. Recent recommendations from a variety of sources state that reforming teacher preparation in postsecondary institutions is central in providing quality mathematics education to all students. The Mathematics Teacher Preparation Content Workshop examined this problem by considering two central questions: What is the mathematical knowledge teachers need to know in order to teach well? How can teachers develop the mathematical knowledge they need to teach well? The Workshop activities focused on using actual acts of teaching such as examining student work, designing tasks, or posing questions, as a medium for teacher learning. The Workshop proceedings, Knowing and Learning Mathematics for Teaching, is a collection of the papers presented, the activities, and plenary sessions that took place.

Food Weights and Measures
Author: Janine P. Siggaoat
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781507609804
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
A handy material packed with loads of information on food weights and measures for professionals in the food service industry and public health nutrition. Containing over 500 foods surveyed spreading with more than 2,000 weights and measures. A useful guide to which chefs, food service professionals and restaurateurs can use when developing, costing and standardizing recipes. Thereby avoiding outguesses, food wastes and setting a realistic cost and profits. Also, a valuable tool for doctors, dietitians, nutrition education experts, economists, agriculturists, and policy-makers. Assessing an individual or group food intakes is easier when available information is in metric measurements as all food data in food composition tables are in 100 grams basis. With available data on food weights and measures, it aids in assessing an individual or a population nutritional status that yields to developing intervention programs and food-based dietary guidelines. This book provides an estimate weight of Asian ingredients using the household measure of one cup.

In Measure, Number, and Weight
Author: Jens Høyrup
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 9780791418215
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
Jens Hoyrup, recognized as the leading authority in social studies of pre-modern mathematics, here provides a social study of the changing mode of mathematical thought through history. His "anthropology" of mathematics is a unique approach to its history, in which he examines its pursuit and development as conditioned by the wider social and cultural context. Hoyrup moves from comparing features of Sumero-Babylonian, Mesopotamian, Ancient Greek, and Latin Medieval mathematics, to examining the character of Islamic practitioners of mathematics. He also looks at the impact of ideologies and philosophy on mathematics from Latin High Middle ages through the late Renaissance. Finally, he examines modern and contemporary mathematics, drawing out recurring themes in mathematical knowledge.
