Students must continue to study appropriate mathematics, content, and they also must be able to recognize when and how to use computers effectively when doing mathematics ... Mathematics teacher should be able to appropriately use a variety of computer tools such as programming languages and spreadsheets in the mathematics classroom. For example, teacher should be able to identify topics for which expressing an algorithm as a computer program will deepen student insight, and they should be able to develop or modify programs to fit the needs of classes or individuals.

Extractions: Teaching With Technology - McKendree College Education Division From the Technology Resource Coordinator... The following lesson plans were developed by preservice teachers at McKendree College who have in the past 2 years or at the present time are participating in a Goals 2000 Preservice Grant. Factors to keep in mind: All McKendree College students participating in this grant are volunteers. Their college background ranges from sophomores to seniors. They are enrolled in methods classes at McKendree College. Technical skills are novice to advanced. This is their first experience at development of an effective lesson plan that includes technology and components of engaged learning. Most lesson plans have not been classroom tested. Each student has earned a Certificate of Achievement by scoring at least 31 points on the evaluation rubric. Mentor teachers in the participating local school districts are volunteers and must have at least 3 years of classroom experience. The McKendree students and mentor teachers share common attributes: they want to learn more about technology and how to effectively integrate it into the classroom, are not afraid to take risks, and demonstrate characteristics of engaged learners.

CAP Scrapbook T he CAP for Teachers program is designed not only to offer educators hands-on experience in archaeology but also to give participants creative ideas using archaeology which they can use to fulfill curriculum needs. The broad range of skills that professional archaeology requires makes it a rich field that teachers can harvest for activities and lessons directed toward a broad range of subject areas. P ast CAP for Teacher participants have reaped the benefits of applying archaeology in the classroom using it to enhance skills related to critical thinking, multiculturalism, writing, mathematics, art and other areas of science. Because of these successes, some of our CAP teachers have offered to share their ideas with others who might also serve to benefit from incorporating archaeology into the classroom.
