Second Announcement for APEC-Tsukuba International Conference V
Since 2006, 19 APEC member economies have been participating
in the APEC-HRDWG Mathematics Lesson Study project proposed
by Japan and Thailand. It has great influence on the
establishment of Lesson Study Movements in other subjects
such as Science and English as for second language.
For the innovation of teaching approaches with computer,
the conference focuses on textbooks and educational tools
in mathematics, especially e-textbooks as for newest tools
in teaching mathematics.
The targets of the conference are as follows:
Q1. How do you use your textbooks in your country?
|
Sharing the methods of teaching with textbooks and knowing theories on
curriculum and textbooks |
Q2. How can we use our textbooks meaningfully? |
Elaborating the model approaches using textbooks to develop mathematical
thinking and communication |
Q3. How do you use blackboards and projectors in your country? |
Sharing the various ways of utilizing traditional equipments in classroom such
as blackboards as well as projectors and computers |
Q4. How can we innovate our teaching approaches for teachers? |
Knowing the innovative tools to develop e-textbooks and sharing the methods of
teaching |
The conference focuses on mathematics.
At the same time, these topics are meaningful for
other subjects, educational technology and ICT education
on the context of lesson study.
