Geometry - First Edition
Copyright 1999 Interest Level: 9-12
 
Geometry - First EditionSee Larger Image     CORD Geometry: Mathematics in Context helps students master geometric concepts in a rich contextual environment. Real-world and workplace applications throughout the program provide students with a relevant way of translating geometry from an abstract, theoretical approach to a concrete, applied approach.

The Program gradually introduces students to informal and formal proofs. Proofs are presented in paragraph, two-column, flow chart, indirect, coordinate, and transformational formats. Additionally, teachers have the option of using informal of formal proofs in the classroom, depending on the ability level and learning styles of their students.
Benefits
Math labs in every chapter provide at least three activities - including a technology activity - where students work cooperatively
Activities that help students become active leaders as they interact with the text to discover how a concept works
Ample opportunities to make effective use of computers, manipulatives, and construction-based activities provide plenty of geometry practice
Math applications provide connections to the workplace through problem solving exercises
Ongoing assessment, lesson assessment and chapter assessment allows for review and re-teaching as necessary
