The Visual Method Behind Singapore's Math Results
Singapore's strong showing on international math tests is often credited to a specific teaching approach: the Model Method, also known as Bar Modelling. This course breaks down that method for learners outside Singapore, focusing on how to visualize problems rather than jump straight to equations.
What You'll Learn
- The fundamentals of the Model Method / Bar Modelling technique
- How to visualize mathematical relationships before solving them
- How to apply the method to typical problem-solving scenarios
Who it's for: beginners, including parents who want a concrete way to help their child with math homework using a method different from how they may have learned it themselves.
Key takeaway: visualizing a problem with bar models is presented as a bridge between concrete understanding and abstract algebra, not just a classroom trick.
About this course
Why are students from Singapore able to do well in international tests? Are they taught with a special pedagogy? Have they been exposed to a special way of visualising complex mathematical concepts?
Imagine, learning Mathematics, the Singaporean way, in the comfort of your own home. This is what I am going to help you with.
So, what's the secret?
Singaporean students have been taught to visualise concepts and solve problems using the Model Method, or, the Bar Modelling Method. I will be sharing the fundamentals of how to use this method to aid in the understanding of Mathematics and you can use it to help your child with Mathematics at home.
