The Search for the perfect teaching method has persisted for many years, In the meantime, many effective strategies have been identified. A strategy is defined, here, as a plan of relatively structured procedures by which specific objectives are achieved. Although many plans have been developed, no one strategy has been shown effective under all conditions. The most promising direction toward effective mathematics teaching at this time appears to be the use of a variety of strategies tailored to the objectives of the lesson and student needs at the time of instruction.

Based Instruction

Developing students' abilities in using and selecting appropriate representations and making transformations between representations is an important issue in mathematics education. Among the mathematical concepts, fractions have always reported as a challenging issue for students in the middle schools for a long time. In this sense, researchers have suggested the use of different representations in learning and teaching of fractions in order to enhance students' conceptual understandings of fractions. Based on this suggestion, we provide some activities for engaging middle school students with multiple representations of fractions by focusing on addition operation. These activities are focused on the need to identify appropriate instructional strategies to enhance students' communication and critical thinking, thus improving their academic performance in mathematics.

Systematic Plan

According to the school observation in China, There are still fragmentation and superficiality problems in front-line teachers’ mathematics teaching method. The reason is that the general system theory has not been rooted in the mathematics teaching method. This study aims to develop Dick-Carey model of systematic design and used in the learning activity. Based on system analysis model,  Dick-Carey model of systematic design, and the “Six Questions” cognitive concepts, this paper tries to construct a systematic plan of teaching mathematics. In order to restore the structure, improve the breadth, depth and openness of teaching plan and to promote the systematic model into better teaching method. At the same time, taking the design of "intersecting lines" as an example, this paper explores the effective strategies of systematic design in mathematics teaching.

Abstract This article discusses results from research developed on the transformations in mathematics teaching in primary school and the mathematics in teacher training from the 19th century to the mid-20th century in Brazil. We have analyzed the understanding of the relationship between the mathematical disciplinary field and pedagogy in order to confirm the theoretical hypothesis that the interactions between the two fields produce mathematics of different natures, which are interconnected.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a serious impact on education at all levels and types, and the education system, including colleges and universities, has been forced to respond by a sudden shift to online teaching. Successful online teaching requires careful thinking, planning, and technical and human support from teachers. Based on the reflection on the offline classroom teaching of theoretical mechanics for many years and the online teaching practice of first half of 2020, the author summarizes effective strategies for implementing online teaching of theoretical mechanics. We prepared the theoretical mechanical lessons through a “student-centered” approach, such as preparing teaching materials, students and teaching methods. These teaching strategies include (i) Adopting live-stream teaching as the main teaching method, (ii) Applying electronic blackboard to online deductions, (iii) Linking theory to practice for better understanding of knowledge, (iv) Integrating curriculum content in ideological and moral education, (v) Conducting formative assessment to supervise and motivate online learning. The implementation of these online teaching strategies has effectively promoted the development of students' independent learning ability.

Assessment Strategies

The Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (NCTM 1989, 1, 2) emphasizes the role of evaluation “in gathering information on which teachers can base their subsequent instruction.” This strong sense of assessment's informing instructional practice is also evident in the materials arising from the Australian Mathematics Curriculum and Teaching Program (Clarke 1989: Lovitt and Clarke 1988, 1989). Both projects offer their respective mathematics-education communities a set of goal much broader than those traditionally conceived for mathematics instruction. The adoption of these goals by mathematics teachers and school systems demands the use of new assessment strategies if the restructuring of the mathematics curriculum and mathematics-teaching practice is to be effected. Mathematics education must not restrict itself to those goals that can be assessed only through conventional pencil-and-paper methods.
