The phrase "active math" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to mathematics that involve engagement or participation, such as in educational settings or discussions about problem-solving.
Example: "In our class, we focus on active math to encourage students to engage with the material and develop their problem-solving skills."
Alternatives: "engaged mathematics" or "participatory math".
We did not grade for mathematical accuracy because this could apply only to the assignment for the active math group.
We used independent sample t tests to compare scores of the passive math and active math groups on our assessment questions.
Specifically, the passive math group scored 9.7% lower on the embedded questions as compared to the quiz, and the active math group scored 7.7% lower.
Again, the passive math group and the active math group performed equally well on these questions (Table 2, Figure 3; unpaired t tests, p > 0.05).
Interestingly, both groups scored significantly lower on the embedded questions compared with the stand-alone questions (paired t tests; passive math: df = 78, p < 0.001; active math: df = 81, p < 0.001).
Finally, although pooled data revealed that the active math group had a slightly higher score on the embedded questions than did the passive math group, this difference was not significant (unpaired t test, p > 0.05).
Participants were 2716 children (46% male, 46% white) from 28 elementary schools in Central Texas that were assigned to either: 1) active learning (math n = 10; spelling n = 9); or 2) traditional, sedentary academic lessons (n = 9).
Bill's activities included being Editor-in-Chief of the Senior Mirror and Editor-inChief of the newspaper, Criterion, as well as being an active member of the Math Club, band, orchestra and various other clubs.
"This does come as a surprise," says Edward Corrigan, head of the University of Durham's Department of Mathematical Science, which, with 36 active research staff, was tops in math.
It is right there in social science, it rears its head often in science and math, and it certainly is active in international language class.
Mr. Watson invoked some math of his own to support active management.
