2. Manipulative (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulative_(mathematics...

   In mathematics education, a manipulative is an object which is designed so that a learner can perceive some mathematical concept by manipulating it, hence its name. The use of manipulatives provides a way for children to learn concepts through developmentally appropriate hands-on experience.

3. Virtual manipulatives for mathematics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_manipulatives_for...

   Virtual math manipulatives are sometimes included in the general academic curriculum as assistive technology for students with physical or mental disabilities. [4] Students with disabilities are often able to still participate in activities using virtual manipulatives even if they are unable to engage in physical activity. [5] [6]

4. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

   In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

5. Robber baron (industrialist) - Wikipedia

   In academia, the education division of the National Endowment for the Humanities has prepared a lesson plan for schools asking whether "robber baron" or "captain of industry" is the better term. They state: In this lesson, you and your students will attempt to establish a distinction between robber barons and captains of industry.

6. Mathematics education - Wikipedia

   Games can motivate students to improve skills that are usually learned by rote. In "Number Bingo," players roll 3 dice, then perform basic mathematical operations on those numbers to get a new number, which they cover on the board trying to cover 4 squares in a row. This game was played at a "Discovery Day" organized by Big Brother Mouse in Laos.

7. Constructivism (philosophy of education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructivism_(philosophy...

   Constructivism in education is rooted in epistemology, a theory of knowledge concerned with the logical categories of knowledge and its justification. [3] It acknowledges that learners bring prior knowledge and experiences shaped by their social and cultural environment and that learning is a process of students "constructing" knowledge based on their experiences.
