Slay the calculus monster with this user-friendly guide

Calculus For Dummies, 2nd Edition makes calculus manageable--even if you're one of the many students who sweat at the thought of it. By breaking down differentiation and integration into digestible concepts,...

"Routines for Reasoning will help teachers think a lot harder about what the mathematical practices mean...This book should be on every mathematics teacher's bookshelf."
- Elham Kazemi, Geda and Phil Condit Professor in Mathematics Education, University of Washington; coauthor of Intentional Talk

"This book is a must read for every K-12 teacher serious about shifting the nature of learning mathematics in the next decade."
-Timothy D. Kanold, Former Director of Mathematics and Science, and School...

The expanded and revised new edition of this text offers an elegant and coherent introduction to the material covered in a university-level algebra course. The solving of systems of equations is a central and unifying approach in the work. The textbook presents the interconnections between group theory, ring theory, and algebraic field theory, and reference to practical applications help to further understanding.

Dieses Buch befasst sich mit der mathematischen Analyse von dynamischen Prozes sen, deren zeitliche Entwicklung nicht kontinuierlich fliessend, sondern in diskreten Zeit schritten modelliert wird. In den Naturwissenschaften, den Ingenieurwissenschaften und den Wirtschaftswissenschaften wird haufig bei der Untersuchung dynamischer Vorgange zunachst ein Modell in diskreter Zeit formuliert, also eine Differenzengleichung oder ein (zeit-) diskretes dynamisches System. Anschliessend wird dann gewohnlich durch einen Grenzubergang, bei dem die Lange eines Zeitschritts gegen Null strebt, das diskrete...

Are you having trouble in finding Tier II intervention materials for elementary students who are struggling in math? Are you hungry for effective instructional strategies that will address students' conceptual gap in additive and multiplicative math problem solving? Are you searching for a powerful and generalizable problem solving approach that will help those who are left behind in meeting the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM)? If so, this book is the answer for you. The conceptual model-based problem solving (COMPS) program emphasizes mathematical modeling and algebraic...

This book aims to make the subject of geometry and its applications understandable to first year students majoring in architecture, design, or the liberal arts. It can also be used to teach students at different levels of computational ability, and there is sufficient novel material to interest students of mathematics or engineering keen in improving their visual understanding. While the book rigorously develops the subject of geometry, it also goes deeply into the applications of the subject and contains much introductory material of which the student may not be knowledgeable. The...

This text opens up alternative ways of thinking and talking about ways in which a person can 'know' a subject (in this case, mathematics), leading to a reconsideration of what it may mean to be a teacher of that subject.

Globally, mathematics and science education faces three crucial challenges: an increasing need for mathematics and science graduates; a declining enrolment of school graduates into university studies in these disciplines; and the varying quality of school teaching in these areas. Alongside these challenges, internationally more and more non-specialists are teaching mathematics and science at both primary and secondary levels, and research evidence has revealed how gaps and limitations in teachers' content understandings can lead to classroom practices that present barriers to students'...

Algebraic Structure of Lattice-Ordered Rings presents an introduction to the theory of lattice-ordered rings and some new developments in this area in the last 10-15 years. It aims to provide the reader with a good foundation in the subject, as well as some new research ideas and topic in the field. This book may be used as a textbook for graduate and advanced undergraduate students who have completed an abstract algebra course including general topics on group, ring, module, and field. It is also suitable for readers with some background in abstract algebra and are interested in...

Dieses Lehrbuch isteine Einfuhrung in dieTechniken der Gruppentheorie. Es beginnt dort, wo die Gruppentheorie anfangt: bei den Permutationsgruppen. Danachwerden wesentliche Strukturen und Techniken, wie das Arbeiten mit Kommutatoren unddie Konstruktion von neuen Gruppen aus gegebenen, behandelt.Das Buchspannt den Bogen vonden grundlegendennilpotenten Gruppen, bis hin zu denendlichen einfachen Gruppen, die Bausteine aller endlichen Gruppen und damit einwichtigesWerkzeug bei allen Strukturuntersuchungen uber endliche Gruppen sind.

Das Buch ist geschrieben fur Studenten, die nach einer...

A perennial bestseller by eminent mathematician G. Polya, How to Solve It will show anyone in any field how to think straight. In lucid and appealing prose, Polya reveals how the mathematical method of demonstrating a proof or finding an unknown can be of help in attacking any problem that can be "reasoned" out--from building a bridge to winning a game of anagrams. Generations of readers have relished Polya's deft--indeed, brilliant--instructions on stripping away irrelevancies and going straight to the heart of the problem.

This sixth volume, in the series of yearbooks by the Association of Mathematics Educators in Singapore, entitled Learning Experiences to Promote Mathematics Learning is unique in that it focuses on a single theme in mathematics education.

The second volume of this systematical presentation of stochastic approximation methods for models of American-type options presents results on structural studies of optimal stopping domains, Monte Carlo based approximation reward algorithms, and convergence of American-type options for autoregressive and continuous time models, as well as results of the corresponding experimental studies.

A volume in the series The Montana Mathematics Enthusiast: Monograph Series in Mathematics Education. Series Editor: Bharath Sriraman, The University of Montana The title of the book is Critique as Uncertainty. Thus Ole Skovsmose sees uncertainty as an important feature of any critical approach. He does not assume the existence of any blue prints for social and political improvements, nor that certain theoretical structures can provide solid foundations for a critical activities. For him critique is an open and uncertain activity. This also applies to critical mathematics education. Critique...
