Teaching with technology is a vital component of today’s elementary mathetmatics teaching, but it's often treated as a "tack-on" rather than a truly integrated component of the curriculum. Elementary Mathematics through Technology walks readers step by step through the process of interweaving math content pedagogy and the most current technology available to enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics. More than mere suggested weblinks, this fresh approach to math methods and content features: An overview of digital technologies available today with concrete suggestions for putting them to best practice in the elementary mathematics classroom. Effective ways to incoporate social networking tools that today’s students know , but that have not yet been embraced in the classroom. Technology-based model lessons and sample activities that provide coverage of both the standards as espoused by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) and the International Society for Technology in Education standards (NETS). Extensive tables, diagrams, graphics, cartoons, and other visual components that help clarify concepts. Accessibly written and full of examples, strategies, and more, this text is sure to guide pre- and in-service teachers through the necessary thinking to meaninfgully integrate today’s technologies, mathematical content, and pedagogy.

This book is a pioneering contribution to the history of the founding of the West German political system after the Second World War. The political cooperation between Catholics and Protestants that resulted in the formation of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) in occupied and early West Germany represented a significant change from a long history of hostility in confessional relations. Given that the CDU went on to dominate politics in West Germany well into the 1960s, Maria D. Mitchell argues that an understanding of what made this interconfessional party possible is crucial to an exploration of German history in the postwar period. She examines the political history of party formation as well as the religious beliefs and motivations that shaped the party's philosophy and positions. She provides an authoritative guide to the complex processes of maneuvering and negotiation that produced the CDU during 1945-46. The full range of political possibilities is discussed, including the suppressed alternatives to the Adenauer/Erhard axis that eventually defined the party's trajectory during the 1950s and the abortive Christian Socialism associated with Jacob Kaiser.
