The Performance of Children with Arithmetic Difficulties on Number Line Tasks by iPads app
Get PDFThe percentage of children with no overall intellectual developmental delay but with significant difficulties in each of the learning and behavioral domains is reported as 8.8%, and the percentage of children/students with significant difficulties in learning is 6.5%. In addition, it was reported that among children and students who do not have intellectual developmental delays but show significant difficulties in various areas of learning and behavior, about 3.4% show significant difficulties in "calculation" or "reasoning," which are particularly relevant to math learning. The abilities related to arithmetic learning and the development of schema related to number and quantity are acquired through a process from early childhood, and it is assumed that difficulties in manipulation and comprehension are due to an innate impairment of the individual, which is different from educational environment factors.
On the other hand, difficulties related to arithmetic learning often become more pronounced after entering elementary school and are often recognized as poor learning rather than as a predisposing factor for arithmetic difficulties. Various methods have been proposed for supporting children with arithmetic difficulties in Japan, as well as evaluation methods, and confirmation of their effectiveness has been conducted developmentally. However, as these difficulties do not surface until school age, early detection and early intervention are important issues, and evaluation combining objective indicators is also important.
To understand the condition of children who present difficulties in learning arithmetic, this paper discusses the accuracy of estimates when children with arithmetic difficulties perform the Number Line Task by iPad app, focusing on the degree of fit（ representations） of the function and presenting a plot diagram. The results suggest that children with arithmetic learning difficulties show an immature estimation.departmental bulletin pape
The Significance of Cooperative Education at Soka University: Aiming at the highest educational institution for humanities education
Get PDFCultivating the character of a bodhisattva through education is possible. To this end, teachers need to encourage students as participants and parties to the bodhisattva's activities and believe in their goodness to the fullest. When we focus on the change and improvement of students' boundaries based on the Ten Worlds Theory, it is important to have cooperative learning that activates each other's bodhisattva nature without the students themselves being aware of it. Cooperative learning, which seeks to contribute to the others' growth by staying close to each other's learning, is full of opportunities for value creation. Conflicts and those in the process of value creation are touchstones in the bodhisattva world. Such education, aims to support expending students' boundaries through various cooperations in class, is called cooperative education, and the core teaching method is cooperative learning.
As mentioned above, this paper describes the possibilities of cooperative learning and cooperative education as a method of human education, which Dr. Daisaku Ikeda, the founder of Soka University, has often stated in his lectures and proposals. The author hopes that this article will help promote understanding of why Soka University places importance on cooperative education.departmental bulletin pape
