    This document discusses the advantages and disadvantages of using estimation in mathematics. Some key advantages include estimation activities helping students understand fractions, decimals, percentages and real-world applications. However, there are also disadvantages such as estimates not being fully accurate and risking false results from relying on approximations rather than precise calculations. The document provides examples of how estimation can be used in daily life situations like estimating the number of students in a school or total hours of television watched.

    ESTIMATION
    FROM WIKIPEDIA, ESTIMATION IS A..
    • The calculated approximation of a result
    which is usable even if input data may be
    incomplete or uncertain,
    • In statistic, see estimation theory ,
    estimator.
    • In mathematics, approximation or
    estimation typically means finding upper or
    lower bounds of a quantity that cannot readily
    be computed precisely and also is an
    educated guess.
    • While initial results may be unusably
    uncertain, recursive input from output, can
    ACCORDING TO WEBSTER’S NINTH NEW
    COLLEGIATE DICTIONARY,

    • To estimate means to judge tentatively or


    approximately the value, worth, or
    significance of something.
    • An estimate is a general calculation of size,
    value, etc, especially an approximate
    computation of the probable cost of a piece of
    work
    Advantages

    • Numerous activities for teaching those


    difficult whole number concepts of
    renaming, multidigit multiplication and long
    division
    • Estimate by engaging activities, lessons
    and manipulatives that will help your
    students truly understand fractions
    • Estimated will create innovative ideas that
    tie decimals and percentages to the real
    world and to real meaning
    • Estimation activities that bring meaning to
    integers and integer operations
    • Estimation will boost homework and
    assessment scores
    • A wide variety of methods such as
    estimation for helping students become
    better problem solvers including
    student-generated problems, problem-
    based learning, problem posing, and
    other research-based ways of teaching
    problem solving
    • Effective ways to incorporate
    estimation and mental math into
    computation and problem solving lessons
    • Creative and fun ways for teaching
    addition, subtraction, multiplication,
    and division facts to struggling, older
    students
    • How to use estimation that will bring
    your computation and problem solving
    •Differentiated instructional strategies for
    teaching to diverse groups of students
    with different learning styles and varying
    ability levels
    • Innovative strategies for incorporating the
    communication skills of reading, writing and
    speaking into mathematics lessons
    • Easy-to-use suggestions for manipulatives
    and other concrete materials that make
    student learning easier, deeper and more fun
    • Classroom-proven ideas for successfully
    integrating calculators into the teaching of
    problem solving and calculation skills
    • Many motivating activities for incorporating
    “fun” into computation and problem solving
    lessons
    • Ready-to-use ideas that
    incorporate hands-on activities,
    estimation, computation, and
    problem solving and apply them to
    real life applications
    • Assessment ideas for quick
    reviews, end-of-unit tests,
    journaling, performance
    assessments, re-teaching, and re-
    testing
    • Tried-and-true tips for
    managing a successful math
    classroom — organization,
    DISADVANTAGES

    • Not really accurate


    • Risk
    • Bare to losing
    • Cannot be so trust in estimate
    • Talk only about thinking
    • Can give false result
    • It is not good to rely on something that we
    estimated
    EXAMPLE USING ESTIMATION
    IN DAILY LIFE

    Example 1 :
    How many students are in your school?
    The reference set here can be the number of
    student in a class. Student should know how
    many students in one class. They should also
    be able to estimate the number of classes in
    the school. This gives an estimate for the
    number of students in the school.
    Example 2

    How many total hours of television were


    watched by all the children in the school? We
    can find the exact answer by asking every
    student how much they watched and then
    adding the num of hours. The answer can be
    estimated using a very important technique
    called sampling. Take a survey of sum of the
    children in the school ( say one class or 2
    students in each class and then scale up)
