"Scratch" is a media-rich digital environment that utilises a building block command structure to manipulate graphic, audio, and video aspects. It incorporates elements of Logo including "tinkerability" in the programming process. In "Scratch" students use geometric and measurement concepts such as coordinates, angle, and length measurements. It…

Among the practical applications of statistics is the collection of data from manufacturing processes. Often collected in the form of a time series, data collected from a series of measurements show the variation in those measurements, such as mass of a product manufactured. Limits are set for quality control and if these are exceeded then a…

Ferguson, Sarah – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2009
Teachers do not want to have students simply marking time by completing tasks from which there is no new learning for them. Similarly, teachers do not want students struggling with tasks that are demoralisingly difficult. In one primary mathematics classroom, however, a teacher can expect to have a wide range in the levels of understanding of the…
