Math Anxiety Reduction reduces anxiety in four phases:
1. It shows the causes of anxiety in general
providing the learner with aids in determining the particular
cause of his/her anxiety.
2. It describes learning theory and quality
instruction as prerequisites for presenting and practicing good
study skills.
3. It teaches relaxation techniques to overcome
the physical-emotional reactions which interfere with teaching-learning
situations.
4. It provides ample opportunities for successsful
math experiences with fractions, percent, ratio and proportion,
and word-problems.
"The major cause of anxiety over mathematics
is the promotion of learning by memorization. People often wonder
why the anxiety is attached to mathematics instead of English,
Social Science, etc. and the answer is a combination of two facts:
First - mathematics instruction frequently encourages (forces)
memorization; and Second - memorization without understanding
is a guaranteed route to failure in mathematics, but may seem
effective with other subjects. Students can be more aware of their
learning problems and students can begin taking control of those
situations where anxiety is created. This software aims its information
at the student."
