General Mathematics Information

Connected Mathematics

What is it?

  • "In Connected Mathematics, important mathematical ideas are embedded in the context of interesting problems.  As students explore a series of connected problems, they develop understanding of the embedded ideas and , with the aid of the teacher, abstract powerful mathematical ideas, problem-solving strategies, and ways of thinking.  Some problems involve real-world applications or whimsical situations, while others are purely mathematical.  A problem's context provides a vehicle for understanding and remembering the mathematical concepts." (Pearson, Prentice Hall)
