I want to get some inspiration in innovative teaching of maths and I want my students to learn it joyfully.]]> 2016-10-21 20:37:26 UTC https://padlet.com/annabocci/jnj6d7d1n0j5/wish/132457522 annabocci https://padlet.com/annabocci/jnj6d7d1n0j5/wish/132860248 I have been teaching maths for just one year and I had two types of students: some of them were very fond of maths, while some others had a lot of difficulties. The main question that this second type of students asked me was about the goal of studying maths (“Why I have to study all this stuff if there is no relation with the real world?”). Students can in fact easily understand the relation to the real world of some topics but not of some others (as ratios, powers, roots…). Furthermore, motivation is closely linked the feedback that students get form their study, but when maths become a merely execution of commands (repetition and memorisation) there is no feedback at all! ]]> 2016-10-24 21:26:37 UTC https://padlet.com/annabocci/jnj6d7d1n0j5/wish/132860248 annabocci https://padlet.com/annabocci/jnj6d7d1n0j5/wish/132861919 2016-10-24 21:41:37 UTC https://padlet.com/annabocci/jnj6d7d1n0j5/wish/132861919
