Comparison of a Length Size Limit of Northern Pike Population on Two Lakes in North Central Minnesota
No full textFisheries managers use length size limits on northern pike (Esox lucis) to improve the size structure in select lakes. The objective of this study was to compare two similar lakes, one with a length size limit and one without, to determine if a length size limit is improving the northern pike size structure. Blueberry Lake showed a higher abundance of larger fish than Stocking Lake. Of the fish caught, 25% in Blueberry Lake were over 600 mm (24 in), and were in the protected slot. Stocking Lake had a smaller portion of fish of this size with only 7% over 600 mm. In Stocking Lake there was a significant negative relationship between length and Wr indicating the more abundant small fish in are out-competing the larger fish for prey. Higher abundance of larger size northern pike with higher levels of Wr were found in Blueberry Lake indicating the length size limit is having a positive influence on the size structure in Blueberry Lake

Common Misconceptions and Instructional Best Practices for Teaching Fractions to Students in Grades Three, Four, and Five
No full textThis research paper will identify common misconceptions related to the teaching and learning fractions for students in grades three, four, and five. Different fraction subconstructs will be identified and instructional best practices will be identified for the teaching and learning of comparing fractions, ordering fractions, adding fractions, and subtracting fractions
Can the Differentiated Math Classroom be a Reality?
No full textImagine a math classroom that looked more like a Google workplace where collaboration, teamwork, and innovation are the centerpieces. Instead of just students sitting in rows passively learning about the nature of mathematics, picture a classroom of students in small circle discussing mathematics. This could range from groups working together on a problem solving strategy for a newly learned concept, students helping students using technology as an aid, another small group receiving intervention from the teacher, or individual students making or viewing instructional math videos. All of this according to research focused on classroom differentiation; specifically in middle school and high school math classrooms can be a reality. Differentiation among classrooms has become a popular topic in educational circles, but for math teachers has been a source of skepticism. Is it possible to build a math classroom around the philosophy of differentiated instruction? With continued hard work of math educators to provide the best math curriculum possible, concentrated teacher training, and focused implementation of new technologies that include smart devices such as iPads this pedagogy is very possible. This paper will explore the strategies and models of the differentiated math classroom and its functional reality

Differentiated Instruction in the High School Mathematics Classroom
No full textThe purpose of this research paper is to address the challenges of instruction within a classroom whose census is a diverse mixture of student mathematical abilities. The diverse ability of low and high achieving students all required to master the different strands of mathematics creates problems for instructors and students to stay engaged and actively moving forward deepening and widening their knowledge base. This paper will focus on differentiated lessons, assessments, and projects of a mathematics classroom in a public high school
