A primary goal of Purposeful Design Mathematics is for students to become skilled in mathematical algorithms—the processes and formulas for doing math accurately—but more importantly for students to develop a strong and deep understanding of the math concepts being studied, that is, they will not only get right answers but they will be able to explain why the answers are correct as well. Purposeful Design Mathematics integrates the use of manipulatives in the instructional process and incorporates algebra, geometry, and critical thinking throughout all grade levels. In the same way that reading comprehension trumps reading speed, Purposeful Design Mathematics will help to increase your students’ math comprehension, not just their speed with math facts.
