This book is a collection of thought-provoking essays that frame basic issues, provide background, and suggest ways to strengthen the mathematical education of all students. The essays present ideas for making mathematical education meaningful for all students--how to meet the practical needs of students entering the work force after high school as well as the needs of those going on to postsecondary education. The essays take up issues such as: finding common ground between science and mathematics education standards and improving the articulation from school to work. High School Mathematics at Work provides thoughtful views from mathematicians, educators, and other experts, and identifies rich possibilities for teaching mathematics and preparing students for the technological challenges of the future.
"This book presents current issues in applied mathematics, standards and assessment, and curriculum in a way that is informative, interesting, and relevant to high school mathematics students. Where other resources may have described classroom techniques in general, this exemplary resource is specific." -- Regina Mistretta, The Mathematics Teacher
