 ResourceMAP English/Spanish TEST PREP      


$89.00

ResourceMAP modules are relatively short and designed for flexible implementation; that is, they can be used in regular classes as well as in special test-preparation settings. Each module contains a set of contextual problems in several formats: multi-part open response, short response, and multiple-choice. Accompanying the problem set are tip sheets that serve several purposes including lists of formulas, calculator instruction, and brief reviews of the module's underlying mathematics. Also provided are teacher notes (the module purpose, the mathematical focus, and implementation commentary), answers to all problems, and (in a few cases) handout masters.

TechMAP TEST PREP     
Vocational and Technical Applications


$89.00

Covering topics from Algebra I to Precalculus, TechMAP modules show high school students real, immediate uses for mathematics. All students MUST PASS the same standardized tests in order to graduate and succeed. All 22 TechMAP modules show tangible, real-world applications of the material on these exams, driving home required math skills.

The mathematics required by state tests is taught in algebra and geometry courses, but for many students this is not enough. TechMAP modules demonstrate these skills in vocational fields; they help reinforce existing mathematics courses through actual career activities. These modules are self-contained with exercises, teacher notes, handouts, etc., and can be used individually or together. Each module takes one to three weeks of classroom time.  Learn More

Casting Your Ballots: Elections     


$59.99

The power to elect officials is the power to change the world, but the mathematics of voting extends far beyond the notion of majority-rule. This election year, use COMAP materials to explore this fascinating process with your students.

The candidate with the most votes wins an election. Simple, right? Wrong. The whole story has as much to do with voting methods as voting numbers .

Casting Your Ballots: Elections is a new multi-media tool from COMAP that allows students to make connections to current events. Both CD-ROM and DVD components contain materials that help students address complex questions that are a very real part of our political system.

• How can different candidates win the same election, depending on which voting method is used? Students examine methods such as Borda, Condorcet, and plurality with runoff.

• How does mathematics define fairness? Can an election process be totally fair?

• What is power ? Explore the notion of “dummies,” the Banzhaf index, coalitions, and how apparently equitable systems can easily turn out to be lopsided and unfair.

As the elections progress and dominate the headlines, students will have a deep understanding of what is happening in the world around them.  Learn More
