Proving Operations With Numbers By Using Manipulatives, Jonathan Bostic
Proving Operations With Numbers By Using Manipulatives, Jonathan Bostic
School of Teaching and Learning Faculty Publications
We will explore number theory topics found in the Common Core State Standards and discuss ways to support student engagement in proof and reasoning. Participants will create proofs for operations with numbers by using manipulatives such as Unifix cubes and base-ten blocks. I will share implications for mathematics teacher educators and teachers.
Developmental Perspective Into Students' Contextualization Of Problem Solving, Jonathan Bostic, Sean Yee
Developmental Perspective Into Students' Contextualization Of Problem Solving, Jonathan Bostic, Sean Yee
School of Teaching and Learning Faculty Publications
The purpose of this paper is to investigate students’ contextualization of problem solving, not the problems. This study draws on the naturalistic paradigm and uses a developmental perspective to explore students’ representations and metaphors used during problem solving. Students of comparable abilities employed similar representations, tended to use analogous metaphors during problem solving, and perceived solutions as outside of a problem’s context.

Tweeting For Learning: A Critical Analysis Of Research On Microblogging In Education Published In 2008-2011, Fei Gao, Tian Luo, Ke Zhang
Visual Communications and Technology Education Faculty Publications
This study critically analyzed the current body of published research on microblogging in education (MIE) to build a deep and comprehensive understanding of this increasingly popular phenomenon. Twenty-one studies on MIE in 2008-2011 were selected based on the selection criteria and analyzed to answer the following questions: (a) What types of research have been published on MIE? (b) How was microblogging used for teaching and learning in these studies? (c) What educational benefits did microblogging have on teaching and learning? and (d) What suggestions and implications did the current research have for future MIE research and practices? The analysis suggested …
Overcoming A Common Storm: Designing The Pd Teachers Need For Successful Common Core Implementation, Gabriel T. Matney, Jonathan Bostic, Daniel Brahier
Overcoming A Common Storm: Designing The Pd Teachers Need For Successful Common Core Implementation, Gabriel T. Matney, Jonathan Bostic, Daniel Brahier
School of Teaching and Learning Faculty Publications
Classroom implementation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) requires significant professional development that is sustained over time, develops teachers understanding of the Standards for Mathematical Practice, and begins with the content and professional needs of the teachers it serves. This study examines elementary and middle school teachers’ perceived content needs related to the CCSS mathematics content domains, their perceived professional needs, and the connection between these perceptions and statewide assessment data. K-5 teachers indicated a great need in Operations and Algebraic Thinking and Numbers and Operations on Fractions. Middle school teachers expressed a major need in better understanding modeling, …
Surf Lifeguard Perceptions And Practice Of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (Cpr), Kevin Moran, Jonathon Webber
Surf Lifeguard Perceptions And Practice Of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (Cpr), Kevin Moran, Jonathon Webber
International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education
While the importance of lifeguards in providing immediate and effective basic life support (BLS) in drowning has been well reported, not a lot is known about how lifeguards perceive the relative value of CPR as a lifeguard skill, their training in it, and the likelihood of resuscitation being successful. A self-complete questionnaire was completed by 252 volunteer surf lifeguards at 16 surf beaches in the Greater Auckland,NZ region. Results show that most lifeguards (65%) had received training in the 3 months before the survey, 83% were willing to perform CPR, few (9%) had used CPR in an emergency, and many …

In this poster I will describe an exploratory evaluation study (Patton, 1987) of a mathematics teacher program at a university in Southeast Asia.
Let's Talk About Problem Solving, Jonathan Bostic, Tim Jacobbe
Let's Talk About Problem Solving, Jonathan Bostic, Tim Jacobbe
School of Teaching and Learning Faculty Publications
This session presents guidelines to promote mathematical discussion. Specific strategies will be shared to help engage all students in discussing their problem solving processes. Methods of engagement will create a learning environment that supports the development of mathematical practices in the Common Core State Standards.
