nShaping Maths (Second Edition) Coursebook 3B
Study one unit from a textbook. What are the key content students need to learn? What are the pedagogies available to help them learn? Do you see Bruner and Dienes in the textbook? What else do you notice?
Please prepare a poster to summarize your group’s discussion. Display the poster before lunch. Indicate the names of the group members.

Summary
Coupled with Session 1, the textbook study aims to help us do unit and lesson
planning as well as to deepen and extend our
understanding of learning theories associated with
effective mathematics learning. One task you
should now do is the next time you are planning a
lesson, put these into practice. What is the main content to be learnt? What
materials embody the concept? What tasks are to be included? How to assess
for learning? How to differentiate for different
learners?
