Approaches to Algebra: Perspectives for Research and Teaching
ISBN: 9780792341451 / Angielski / Twarda / 348 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Greek geometry, there is an arithmetic of magnitudes in which, in terms of numbers, only integers are involved. This theory of measure is limited to exact measure. Operations on magnitudes cannot be actually numerically calculated, except if those magnitudes are exactly measured by a certain unit. The theory of proportions does not have access to such operations. It cannot be seen as an "arithmetic" of ratios. Even if Euclidean geometry is done in a highly theoretical context, its axioms are essentially semantic. This is contrary to Mahoney's second characteristic. This cannot be said of...

Perspectives on the Teaching of Geometry for the 21st Century: An ICMI Study
ISBN: 9780792349914 / Angielski / Miękka / 353 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In recent years geometry seems to have lost large parts of its former central position in mathematics teaching in most countries. However, new trends have begun to counteract this tendency. There is an increasing awareness that geometry plays a key role in mathematics and learning mathematics. Although geometry has been eclipsed in the mathematics curriculum, research in geometry has blossomed as new ideas have arisen from inside mathematics and other disciplines, including computer science.
Due to reassessment of the role of geometry, mathematics educators and mathematicians face new... In recent years geometry seems to have lost large parts of its former central position in mathematics teaching in most countries. However, new trends ...

On the Teaching of Linear Algebra
ISBN: 9780792365396 / Angielski / Twarda / 290 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To a large extent, it lies, no doubt, in what is presented in this work under the title of meta lever, a method which it is certainly interesting to develop and further refine. There exists in mathematics courses a strange prudery which forbids one to ask questions such as, Why are we doing this? -, At what is the objective aimed? -, whereas it is usually easy to reply to such questions, to keep them in mind, and to show that one can challenge these questions and modify the objectives to be more productive or more useful. If we don t do this we give a false impression of a gratuitous or...

Multidimensional Models of Perception and Cognition
ISBN: 9780805805772 / Angielski / Twarda / 538 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The mental representations of perceptual and cognitive stimuli vary on many dimensions. In addition, because of quantal fluctuations in the stimulus, spontaneous neural activity, and fluctuations in arousal and attentiveness, mental events are characterized by an inherent variability. During the last several years, a number of models and theories have been developed that explicitly assume the appropriate mental representation is both multidimensional and probabilistic. This new approach has the potential to revolutionize the study of perception and cognition in the same way that signal...

Mathematical Thinking and Problem Solving
ISBN: 9780805809909 / Angielski / Miękka / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the early 1980s there was virtually no serious communication among the various groups that contribute to mathematics education -- mathematicians, mathematics educators, classroom teachers, and cognitive scientists. Members of these groups came from different traditions, had different perspectives, and rarely gathered in the same place to discuss issues of common interest. Part of the problem was that there was no common ground for the discussions -- given the disparate traditions and perspectives. As one way of addressing this problem, the Sloan Foundation funded two conferences in...
