Integrating Rich Mathematical Tasks in Secondary Classrooms
This study explores secondary mathematics teachers’ perspectives on integrating rich mathematical tasks into their classrooms. It addresses the gap between recommendations for rich mathematical experiences and their actual implementation. Findings from the analysis of data gathered through focus group interviews with five experienced secondary mathematics teachers in Ontario, Canada, are reported. These indicate that teachers define rich tasks as…
Behind the “Success Story”
Mechatronics Learning Studio
This paper describes the evolution of the teaching of electrical engineering to mechanical engineering students based on motivation and a pedagogical strategy incorporating interdisciplinary mechatronics projects in a learning studio environment. Implementation of student projects within the curriculum has been demonstrated to be highly motivational and educational and has even evolved from “play and learn” into industry-inspired green energy app…
Engaging High School and Engineering Students
If we aim to enhance the interest of students in engineering and therefore produce the best engineers, it is essential to strengthen the pipeline to high school education. This paper discusses several outreach activities undertaken by the Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa (UO), Ottawa, ON, Canada, to help the transition between high school and engineering education and to make students aware of the engineering …
