"Adapting and Extending Secondary Mathematics Activities": If...then... Questions - pg. 64-105

1) If teachers use the domino style game to practice a mathematical concept then will students get a better understanding of that concept because the game is more interesting then just doing questions?

2) If students rely too much on technology (i.e. graphing calculators and computers) to solve problems then will they not know how to solve problems without technology? What can the teacher do to make sure this does not happen?

3) If teachers promote talking, writing, moving, listening, imagining, and reading in their math classes then will more students have success in math?
