Description
Active engagement is the key to learning. You want your students doing something that stimulates them to ask questions and creates a need to know.
Teaching Mathematics Through Games presents a variety of classroom-tested exercises and activities that provoke the active learning and curiosity that you hope to promote.
These games run the gamut from well-known favorites like SET and Settlers of Catan to original games involving simulating structural inequality in New York or playing Battleship with functions. The book contains activities suitable for a wide variety of college mathematics courses, including general education courses, math for elementary education, probability, calculus, linear algebra, history of math, and proof-based mathematics.
Some chapter activities are short term, such as a drop-in lesson for a day, and some are longer, including semester-long projects.
All have been tested, refined, and include extensive implementation notes.
