Student Perceptions Of Caring Mathematics Instruction, Andrew B. Spires
Student Perceptions Of Caring Mathematics Instruction, Andrew B. Spires
Georgia Educational Research Association Conference
In my study I would like to examine how students who are part of a ninth grade mathematics intervention program describe caring mathematics instruction. Researchers have shown the importance of caring instruction especially as it relates to high school mathematics instruction of students who have a history of academic struggles and failure. Given that caring is a complex construct, students’ perceptions of teacher caring not only has the potential to inform high school mathematics instruction but also could lead to healthier and stronger teacher-student relationships.
