I have yet to read the long Doman Math Method thread in this forum section, but I have a general math question:
What are your favorite or most insightful references about teaching math (and science) to children and inspiring them to like it?
-Any studies about the types of teachers or teaching techniques that work well?
-Any comparative studies between how math is taught in places like China or Poland vs. U.S.?
-Any workbooks for kids that are particularly beneficial?
-Any articles that talk about math circles? There is a
math circle program affiliated with the UC Berkeley campus that would be easy for me to get to in the future, but I don't know how effective it is.
I am a good reader, but I am not a math whiz...so I am much less confident about transferring those skills without even more guidance.
:-)
TIA
