The researcher guided the preservice teachers to gather various prisms, pyramids, and spheres to study the total surface areas and volumes. At the end of the integrated models, the test scores showed closed relationships in the concurrent instructional strategies of the integrated models. The researcher therefore, recommended the design models for the teaching and learning of solids in mathematics.展开更多

This paper describes how an oral interpretation class makes use of the Internet, suggests a rationale for the various procedures used, and presents case studies which explore the benefits of Internet aided interpretation practice for both students and teachers in pre-class preparation, in-class activity, and follow-up reinforcement. A questionnaire-based survey among 265 English majors also indicates students' enthusiasm and validates the teachers' experiment.展开更多
