Maths is awesome when you know what you're doing. Unfortunately the education system in my country only wants us to be number cruncher. I got help from Khan Academy with my calculus and it was great, for the first time I actually knew what gradient, divergence or curl actually means and how it is derived, instead of just formulas that I have to memorize to pass the exam. Hope you enjoy the site! My goal is to leave the raw details for Wikipedia & other sources, and really focus on the intuition that makes things click. I've seen how a difficult concept, like imaginary numbers, can click in minutes with the right metaphor (multiplying by i is a rotation into the 2nd dimension). I'm sure you get this question a lot, but do you have plans to provide a pre-printed and pre-binded book version of this material? I know I could just print it out myself and put it in a binder but it would be great to have something more portable. The reason we learn many things in math by 'formula' is because to learn the entire story means learning a ton of background theory to have the proper intuitions into the mathematical systems. Although a good physical analogy can go a long way. If you want to have a good mathematical intuition i would start by getting a good analysis book and be prepared to put alot of time into it. I enjoy spivaks calculus on manifolds (because of his approach, probably not the best for analysis). I am currently reading a fantastic book which might be interesting for you. It is called Journey through Genius. The book starts from the beginning of math and presents hand picked theorems in a very engaging way. Background information on the great mathematicians and what drove them to come up with these proofs in the first place makes the information stick long after reading. I also second PuTongHua who recommended Better Explained. Agree with this. Discrete is sort of where you learn to do proofs and number theory that makes you see basic math in a new light, with more theory. And of course you get to practice proving things, not because anyone tells you to, but because you get to do grade school math, only going deeper into the theory behind it. This doesn't directly answer your question, but if you want to learn math which is more intuitive then maybe you should read some Discrete mathematics (especially number theory and graph theory). Of the little math that I have studied I believe that it was the one that was most intuitive and logical as it has its basis on the very fundamentals of mathematics. You can't just expect to learn math "intuitively". You need to actually take the time to spend hours trying to understand a few pages in a textbook, and to write down computations/drafts of proofs on paper to help you understand what's going on. Learning math "intuitively" will only give you a very superficial understanding of math. Understanding things intuitively does not mean not working for it. At least that's not what it is for me. Oftentimes a a few pictures and comments on how to interpret or think about the formulas or the roles of different parts of a proof really helps accelerate how fast (and fun) you learn something. Of course. But most textbooks you will find on some math subject will help you build an intuition for the subject. Saying "I want to learn math intuitively" makes OP sound like he's never actually bothered to open a textbook.

Complex variables texts vary from purely theoretical to very applied. Although entitled Applied Complex Variables for Scientists and Engineers, this text puts the mathematics first while including applications in every chapter. It is an excellent text for those hoping to understand the mathematics well and how it is used in applications. Concepts are carefully explained and there are many helpful worked examples. Each chapter has numerous exercises, 340 in all, many of which have answers included. The first chapter introducting complex numbers includes applictions to electrical circuits. The last section of the chapter on Analytic Functions, on harmonic functions, covers steady state temperature distributions and Poisson's equation. The logarithmic functions section of the next chapter treats temperature distribution in the upper-half plane. After proving the Cauchy-Goursat theorem, the Cauchy integral formulas and other results Chapter 4 on complex integration concludes with a section on potential functions of conservative fields. An application for Laurent series obtains the potential flow over a perturbed circle. Singularities and Calculus of Residues includes a section of Fourier transforms as well as one on hydrodynamics in potential fluid flows. The final two chapters are Boundary Value Problems and Initial-Boundary Value Problems and Conformal Mapping and Applications. Overall this text combines a clear, thorough treatment of the standard complex variable theory with illustrative applications. It could be used in a variety of courses but those with primarily an engineering or science background should be well-motivated to encounter carefully presented mathematics first. Art Gittleman (artg@csulb.edu) is Professor of Computer Science at California State University Long Beach.

Book DescriptionMore About the Author Product Description Review." Distance Learning Tutor. Journal of Community Nursing. May 2007. Vol 21 issue 5 --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. I am a first-year student nurse and this book is only the second I have purchased. As part of one of our modules we have do a numeracy test, the questions of which are similar to those in this book. Now that I have read the book and actually enjoyed completing the exercises I am confident that I can successfully complete the numeracy test and the further calculations tests we have to do in subsequent years. It doesn't just tell you what's right, it shows you (through worked calculations) HOW it's right - buy it now and you will never be fazed by decimals, mg/mcg and fractions again! A clear, concise format that is easy to use. The plain English content made for easy access and the informative, straightforward explanations made calculations easy to understand. Ideal for both beginner and those a little rusty in processes of mathematical calculations relating to the nursing profession.The test and answer approach made it easy to deduce the level of help you required. A must for both students and trained nurses. I shall be keeping my copy in my pocket. This book is really great for mathematicians of the future and those of us whose only maths is trying to work out our credit card bill! Having a maths test in the first module of the common foundation year, is no joke. Panicking, I set off to find a useful book and finding the uni recommended one out of stock, I picked up this one instead. I couldn't have made a better choice. The book covers everything you need to get you motivated for learning nursing calculations. The author begins with a self-assessment test. You then move on to basic maths, from the usual add, subtract, multiply and divide, to working with fractions, decimals and converting one to the other. One of my problems, is working out where the decimal point should be, particularly on numbers <1. This book explains this point very easily. The book then goes on to discuss the various nursing calculations required for drugs, which are too numerous to cover here, but include general information, calculations related to bodyweight and paediatric calculations. The latter really interested me, as I am in the child health branch. At the time of writing, I am still working through the general maths section and actually finding it challenging and yes, enjoyable! It did help in my maths test and the only points I lost, were for rushing through the questions too much. In conclusion, I would like to say that I recommend this book very highly, to anyone entering the nursing profession. It is equally suitable for students, as for those qualified nurses, who want to revise their maths. It should, in my opinion, be on the recommended reading list, of every UK university. When starting the nursing diploma i had completely forgotten all the maths i learnt at school. I bought this book to see if it would help me and it's amazing how much i now understand. The only problem with this book is that the description of how to do certain sums aren't always very clear and it can take a while to see what they are saying. However, i would definately reccomend this book to anyone starting the course. This book is OK but it does not cover clinical calculations and medication administration. The following books offer more scope: Davisons "Numeracy and Clinical Calculations" which covers a range of clinical calculations seen on the ward; "How to Master Nursing Calculations" which covers medication administration records,the "Student Nurse Maths and Medications Survival Guide" which is a handy pocket size without practice questions. "Drug calculations for Nurses" (Lapham) is a classic book but goes to a higher level. I found this book really helpful to get me started with drugs calculations in my first year. Now I am in my second year, I still dip into the book when I have a test coming up to refresh my memory about the basics. I would recommend this book to any nursing student. It is really easy to understand and if I can do it, anyone can!!! I had another nursing calculation book that I actually gave away because I could not get on with it but I love this book I would reccomend this book to any student nurse. I am now in my third year and I still use this book to refresh my memory before a drugs calculation test. It has lots of calculations for you to practice with and is a must if you struggle with things like IV calculations. Easy to use and understand. The best book I have found to help me with my drugs calculations.

A common set of mathematical tools underlies dynamic optimization, dynamic estimation, and filtering. In <i>Recursive Models of Dynamic Linear Economies</i>, Lars Peter Hansen and Thomas Sargent use these tools to create a class of econometrically tractable models of prices and quantities. They present examples from microeconomics, macroeconomics, and asset pricing. The models are cast in terms of a representative consumer. While Hansen and Sargent demonstrate the analytical benefits acquired when an analysis with a representative consumer is possible, they also characterize... Suitable for an introductory discrete mathematics course, this text covers the subfields of mathematics and computer science that fall under the general umbrella term. It fits the ideas of the basic curriculum as outlined in the SIGCSE guidelines into a framework that focuses on content rather than technique. The book covers standard and practical topics required in discrete math classes. The author also incorporates classroom activities as well as instructor's notes at the end of every chapter. ... Unlike related books, this handbook brings together background material, derivations, and applications of differential entropy. The book first reviews probability theory as it enables an understanding of the core building block of entropy. The authors then carefully explain both discrete and differential entropy. They present detailed derivations of differential entropy for numerous probability models, discuss challenges with interpreting and deriving differential entropy, and show how differential entropy varies as a function of the model variance. They also explore the application of... This classic introduction to probability theory for beginning graduate students covers laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, random walks, martingales, Markov chains, ergodic theorems, and Brownian motion. It is a comprehensive treatment concentrating on the results that are the most useful for applications. Its philosophy is that the best way to learn probability is to see it in action, so there are 200 examples and 450 problems. The new edition begins with a short chapter on measure theory to orient readers new to the subject. ... This Student Solution Manual provides complete solutions to all the odd-numbered problems in Essential Mathematical Methods for the Physical Sciences. It takes students through each problem step-by-step, so they can clearly see how the solution is reached, and understand any mistakes in their own working. Students will learn by example how to select an appropriate method, improving their problem-solving skills. ... Finance provides a dramatic example of the successful application of advanced mathematical techniques to the practical problem of pricing financial derivatives. This self-contained 2002 text is designed for first courses in financial calculus aimed at students with a good background in mathematics. Key concepts such as martingales and change of measure are introduced in the discrete time framework, allowing an accessible account of Brownian motion and stochastic calculus: proofs in the continuous-time world follow naturally. The Black-Scholes pricing formula is first derived in the... Markov chains are central to the understanding of random processes. This is not only because they pervade the applications of random processes, but also because one can calculate explicitly many quantities of interest. This textbook, aimed at advanced undergraduate or MSc students with some background in basic probability theory, focuses on Markov chains and quickly develops a coherent and rigorous theory whilst showing also how actually to apply it. Both discrete-time and continuous-time chains are studied. A distinguishing feature is an introduction to more advanced topics such as...

The latter half extends the discussion to oxidation processes in complex systems, from reactions in mixed environments to protective techniques, including coatings and atmosphere control.... This book is the first to treat the analytic aspects of combinatorial enumeration from a multivariate perspective. Analytic combinatorics is a branch of enumeration that uses analytic techniques to estimate combinatorial quantities: generating functions are defined and their coefficients are then estimated via complex contour integrals. The multivariate case involves techniques well known in other areas of mathematics but not in combinatorics. Aimed at graduate students and researchers in enumerative combinatorics, the book contains all the necessary background, including a review of the...

Over the past decade, there has been a surge of interest in such problems, with applications ranging from robotics to protein folding. With an emphasis on algorithmic or computational aspects, this treatment gives hundreds of results and over 60 unsolved 'open... Classical computable model theory is most naturally concerned with countable domains. There are, however, several methods – some old, some new – that have extended its basic concepts to uncountable structures. Unlike in the classical case, however, no single dominant approach has emerged, and different methods reveal different aspects of the computable content of uncountable mathematics. This book contains introductions to eight major approaches to computable uncountable mathematics: descriptive set theory; infinite time Turing machines; Blum-Shub-Smale computability; Sigma-definability;Markov processes are processes that have limited memory. In particular, their dependence on the past is only through the previous state. They are used to model the behavior andWith the same user-friendly, quirky, and perceptive approach that made Innumeracy a bestseller, John Allen Paulos travels though the pages of the daily newspaper showing how math and numbers are a key element in many of the articles we read every day. From the Senate, SATs, and sex, to crime, celebrities, and cults, he takes stories that may not seem to involve mathematics at all and demonstrates how a lack of mathematical knowledge can hinder our understanding of them. ...

Pre-Algebra—Semester B The shape of Shmoop's heart. Course Description Are you one of the many students out there that shiver at the thought of having to work with equations and graphs? What about rational and irrational numbers? Okay, enough with the scary words. Sometimes, we think Stephen King doesn't have anything on tales from middle school and high school math classes. What we're about to tell you might come as a surprise: Pre-Algebra isn't really that scary. Sure, there's something creepy about walking into a dark basement. But once the lights get flicked on, you just might find a surprise party waiting at the bottom of the stairs. (We wish!) Our goal is to turn on that light bulb and shed some insight—and hilarity—onto the darkness that is hiding the Pre-Algebra party. In this course, we'll learn about concepts we'll see again and again in classes like Geometry, Statistics, Probability, and (you guessed it) Algebra. Equations and other concepts tend to rear their beautiful heads in all math classes at some point. Luckily, Shmoop makes these concepts easier to learn and remember. P.S. Pre-Algebra is a two-semester course. You're looking at Semester B, but you can check out Semester A here. Technology Requirements Microsoft Office, Google Docs, or another word processing program A scanner (or access to one) A camera (a camera phone is sufficient) All other work can be done via the Shmoop website. Required Skills This course is an accelerated course meant to be taken after 6th grade math and before algebra I. If you are looking for pre-algebra to be split into two years, check out our 7th and 8th grade math courses (coming soon). Course Breakdown Unit 9. Systems of Linear Equations and Inequalities On occasion, lonely linear equations and inequalities are known mix and mingle together. Equations that don't know each other very well will try to find similarities between them. Hopefully they'll be able to find a point in common and connect in some way before the evening ends. Unit 10. Basics of Geometry Geometry is all about seeing the world around you in a totally different way. (No, not upside down. Now get off of there.) We'll describe shapes, calculate side lengths, find congruent angles, and manipulate formulas for our own personal gain. And let's be real: who doesn't love using just about anything for their own personal gain? Unit 11. Transformations in Geometry Prepare for more reflections than a fun house full of mirrors, more rotations than a pirouetting ballerina, and more translations than a U.N. conference. As long as we get our shrink ray working, don't blow things out of proportion, and hold on to our congruent angles, we'll be just fine. Unit 12. 3D Geometry The third dimension involves a lot more algebra than you might think. Dust off those area formulas, one-variable equations, and proportions, because we'll be putting them to good use. Get ready to fold some nets, calculate volumes and surface areas, and identify similar solids. Thrilling, we know. Unit 13. Statistics Statistics allow us to sample populations, gather data, calculate means, and create colorful graphs that report our findings. It's all about making a lot of information more easily understandable. That, and proving once and for all that Michael Keaton is the best Batman of all time. Unit 14. Probability This unit will focus primarily on being able to predict the future. (Think less divination and more blackjack.) We'll draw tables and diagrams to represent probabilities of different events, calculate the chance of winning a poker hand and the lottery, and dabble in the art of simulations, all to bring probability to life. Probably.

popular and free program GeoGebra is now available as a web-based application using HTML5. This means that if your students are using Chromebooks, tablets, or just aren't allowed to download software they can still use GeoGebra GeoGebra is a Mac app that plots algebraic equations for you. It also lets you place any two points on a graph and find out the resulting equation, plot angles & geometric shapes, and find their coordinates. Life would indeed have been easier if this app were allowed in school. The app has four different views, and all views (called perspectives) are interlinked; that is, the variables entered in one view are remembered and can be referenced when working in another one. The four views are Algebra & Graphics, Basic Geometry, Geometry, and Spreadsheet & Graphics. The Algebra & Graphics view allows you to enter and get algebraic equations. To enter an equation, type it in the Input field at the very bottom. To plot any two random points, use the buttons at the top. The New Point button allows you to place any number of points on the graph, and the Line through two points button lets you connect two points. As you enter and connect points, the panel on the left displays the coordinates of all points and any equations that are formed.

Open House for Fall semester is on Monday, Sept. 14. HONOR CODE SUMMARY: An essential part of education is developing a sense of honor, responsibility, and citizenship. Self-esteem and self-respect grow from meeting challenges with honesty and individual effort. The Brookwood academic integrity policies are similar to those found at universities. The Honor Code lists Brookwood's expectations of its student citizens. Cheating includes any attempt to defraud, deceive, or mislead a teacher in arriving at an accurate assessment of student achievement. The Honor Code booklet provides general examples of violations and then explains more specific examples in the categories of homework, tests, research papers, essays, lab reports, and calculators. Every student is expected to familiarize him- or herself with the contents of the Honor Code and ask for further explanation if necessary. Consequences for violation of the Honor Code can be quite serious and far- reaching. Mr. Swanson's Classroom Rules My goal is to help each one of you learn to your fullest potential. I want to encourage good behavior, and alleviate all distractions. I will demand that each of my students abide by the rules below, and all of the rules in your student handbook and in your student agenda. Please refer to pp. 31–39 in your student agenda. 1. Come into the classroom quietly, and walk directly to your assigned seat. Students are not allowed to stand in the doorway, or outside in the hallway. 2. Do not get out of your seat without teacher permission until the bell rings ending the period. 3. Come to class prepared to learn. Bring your textbook, calculator, notebook, and pencil to class every day. 4. While in class students will not be allowed to talk until called on by the teacher. 5. Raise your hand to ask a question, and again don't speak until the teacher has called on you. 6. No food will be allowed out in the classroom. 7. Students will not be allowed to have drinks in class unless they have a screw top lid. 8. Students will not be allowed to ball up paper, make or have any type of projectiles in class. I have read the syllabus for Integrated Algebra 1, and I understand Mr. Swanson's classroom rules.

Algebra (25) Winner 1998 We designed our web page to meet three educational objectives: To apply math to real-life situations; To make math interesting and stimulating; To share interactive math experiences over the Internet. We show that math is part of our daily life by applying it to driving a car, listening to music, using a computer and saving and investing for college funds. The mathematical concepts in each of our topics are defined with simple equations at elementary and junior high math levels. When students realize that they can use simple math to understand and solve problems relevant to their lives, they will discover that math is stimulating. We take away fear of learning math by using simple equations for complicated real-life application. We ask users to submit a quiz to share in the hope of stimulating their imagination in the real world. As more users submit their quizzes, we will build up a database of interesting real-world math applications About this site 2008 All beams of wave traveling parallel to the axis of the parabola after reflecting of he surface of the antenna will go to the same location within the antenna. This point is called the focal point of the parabola. That's where they place a receiver. We'll determine the position of the focal point given equation of the parabola. About this site 2003 Here you will find shortcuts for basic math equations. We chose this subject because we wanted to help younger students with the painstaking task that is math. We also wanted people to appreciate math. Math is used more in your everyday life than you might think (getting to school on time, budgeting spending money, calculating change, etc.). We want to make people aware of everyday math. About this site 2003 In this project, our team has been instructed to create a website that enables other people or students to read, think, and understand the principles of integers. On this website, you will find links to pages that support information on multiplying, dividing, adding, and subtracting integers, in whole numbers and in fractions. About this site 2000 The site is aimed at students ages 12-15 to teach the various topics in maqth covered by guiding students through the lessons, giving hints or suggestions along the way. The site can also be used by math teachers to supplement lessons or add a new twist to the regular teaching style. We hope that it will benefit students from all over the world who need extra help in math or who enjoy mathematical puzzles. About this site 2000 A self-teaching project suitable for everybody who wants to learn more about Maths, speacially Calculus. This site has been designed in an interactive way, in order to improve and increase your knowledge. Since Caulculus is one of the most importante branches of mathematics, and one of the most used "techniques" for solving common problems, this site has been developed in order to have applications for it. Mathematics are part of our daily life, you use numbers, geometrics figures, variables, etc, and we bet that you haven't realized about that. You count money, you draw any kind of object made primarly of geometric figures, you make hypotesis about your grades and calculations about them. You see? Maths are everywhere!!! Our well known friends, the X, Y, Z variables, will go all the way together us and will explain step by step every process. Interactive exams, online help, examples, excercises, graphics everything sou you can learn more about it. Calculus of one varibale will be revised in this project. Just like we say: "... The greatest men are not who fight other men in battle, but those who fight the ignorance... " About this site 1999 The purpose for this site is to provide students with a guide through the topic of quadratics in Algebra 1. This site discusses and illuminates the main concepts in an engaging and playful manner. About this site 1999 Our web site is about graphs. It is called Graphing from a 5th Grader's Point of View. We put in interactive games to make the web site interesting. We also included a quiz and survey because we feel that it will hep people who visit our web site understand graphs better. Most people think graphs would not help them in their life, but we thought differently. We realized that people use graphs everyday. In jobs, some people use them to see how much money they are making. We decided to make this web site to show how important graphs really are. About this site 1999 Math Mania has two important applications. One application is the use of math lessons to teach formulas and other methods of solving various math problems. The other application is to predict the outcome of certain problems based on given data with the Math Mania Math Solver. Math Mania is full of useful information to help one learn the language of mathematics. This site incorporates the principles of math and presents them using a collection of math lessons. These math lessons are assisted by a mailing list, a message board, and chat. These tools provide an interactive line of communication between Math Mania and the online users.

This area contains the lessons for The Differential Equations Tutor, Vol 1 Tutorial Videos where we learn with detailed example problems how to solve ordinary linear differential equations (ODEs) of first order. In this series we also learn how to obtain solutions of differential equations using various techniques and how to check our work. We also explore how to graph differential equations, which is something that every student in a diff equ course must master. Section 1: What is a Differential Equation? Section 2: Solving Elementary Differential Equations This section gives the student practice in solving elementary Differential Equation problems. The student is taught how to determine if a given function is a solution to an ODE. In addition, the student is taught how to perform integration on ODEs in order to calculate the general solution and also how to use the initial conditions to find the specific solution. . . . View the lesson Section 3: Separation of Variables In this section, we learn our first major technique to solve a broad class of ordinary differential equations. The technique applies to first order differential equations and is called separation of variables because we break up the variables in such a way that integration is possible to find the solution. . . . View the lesson Section 6: Exact Differential Equations In this section, we learn how to identify and test if an ordinary differential is "exact" in nature. If it is exact, we learn how to solve it by using the constraints placed upon Exact Differential Equations. Numerous examples are provided. . . . View the lesson Section 10 - Applications of Differential Equations: Newton's Law of Cooling In this section, we apply the techniques and theory of solving differential equations to the problems involving Newton's Law of Cooling. This type of problem involves having a warm object in cooler surroundings such as a glass of water placed in a freezer. Newton's law of cooling is a differential equation that is used to calculate the temperature of the water as a function of time. . . . View the lesson

Math Welcome to Math 20! Math 20 is for students who wish to learn about ratios, proportions, percents, measurement unit conversions, and geometry. These topics are from chapters 5, 6, 8, and 9 in our textbook. Our syllabus is here. Our class CRN is 10378. Please also register for MRC use (CRN 12297 in Summer 2013) if you plan to use the Math Resource Center at all, for tutoring, its quiet study room, or to check out the DVDs provided by our textbook publisher. This CRN costs nothing and has no credits. It is used by the college to get appropriate state funding for the MRC staff. During the Summer Term the MRC is open from 8:30 am to 2:30 pm on Mondays through Thursday and also Monday and Wednesday evenings 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. Learning this math is like a chair that stands on four legs: turning lectures into helpful lecture notes, carefully doing both "prompt" and "enough" homework problems, developing good test-taking techniques, and preparing your own step-by-step practice problems and answers. Neglecting any of these four is dangerous! Please do not demonstrate such recklessness. Successful students make time for all four. During the first three classes we use a homework packet of problems from the first four chapters of the textbook. Please grade your own work using the online answers (PDF). Also remember the syllabus quiz.
This unit extends the ideas introduced in the unit on first-order differential equations to a particular type of second-order differential equation which has a variety of applications. The unit assumes that you have previously had a basic grounding in calculus, know something about first-order differential equations and have some familiarity with complex numbers. This unit introduces the topic of differential equations. The subject is developed without assuming that you have come across it before, but it is taken for granted that you have a basic grounding in calculus. In particular, you will need to have a good grasp of the basic rules for differentiation and integration. Another vector quantity which crops up frequently in applied mathematics is velocity. In everyday English, the words 'speed' and 'velocity' mean much the same as each other, but in scientific parlance there is a significant difference between them. Velocity and speed following subsections, we apply the vector ideas introduced so far to displacements and velocities. The examples will feature directions referred to points of the compass, known as bearings. The direction of Leeds relative to Bristol can be described as '15° to the East of due North', or N 15° E. This is an instance of a bearing. Directions on the ground are typically given like this, in terms of the directions North (N), South (S), East (E following activity illustrates how the conversion processes outlined in the preceding sections may come in useful. If two vectors are given in geometric form, and their sum is sought in the same form, one approach is to convert each of the vectors into component form, add their corresponding components, and then convert the sum back to geometric form applications of vectors there is a need to move backwards and forwards between geometric form and component form; we deal here with how to achieve this. To start with, we recall definitions of cosine and sine. If P is a point on the unit circle, and the line segment OP makes an angle θ measured anticlockwise from the positive x-axis, then cos θ is the x-coordinate of P and sin θ is the y-coordinate of P This unit is aimed at teachers who wish to review how they go about the practice of teaching maths, those who are considering becoming maths teachers, or those who are studying maths courses and would like to understand more about the teaching process.

When handing it in, please include a cover sheet containing the following information: Name and week number. A list of problems you did NOT complete. The percentage of problems, p, assigned that you completed correctly. Your grade, H, on the homework where H = (p+10)/20. Be sure to round H down to the nearest integer (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5) I will drop your lowest homework score when calculating your grade at the end of the quarter. NOTE: You will earn a 0 on any homework assignment that is too hard to read; or if you seem to have mindlessly copies another student's homework (or the solutions manual); or if you allowed another student to mindlessly copy your work. Also note that if you are going to hand in your HW outside of class, you have two options: You can bring it to the secretary in the science (2800) building by 4:30p. You'll need to put my name (Wendy Hurley) on it and a date stamp and put it in the HW box on the left side of the secretary's counter. DO NOT try to slip it under my office door. You can scan it (or take pictures of it) and email it to me at whurley@shoreline.edu. The homework needs to be sent to me by Tuesday at 12 midnight to receive credit for the assignment. If at all possible, please get your homework in during class time. This makes my job much easier and will better prepare you for the quiz/test taken in class.

The text is meant to bridge the computational courses that students typically encounter in their first years of college (such as calculus or differential equations) to more theoretical, proof-based courses such as topology, analysis and abstract algebra. Topics include sets, logic, counting, methods of conditional and non-conditional proof, disproof, induction, relations, functions and infinite cardinality.Although this book may be more meaningful to the student who has had some calculus, there is no prerequisite other than a measure of mathematical maturity. The text is an expansion and refinement of the author's lecture notes developed over ten years of teaching proof courses at Virginia Commonwealth University. The text is catered to the program at VCU to an extent, but the author kept the larger audience of undergraduate mathematics students in mind.

Software for: Windows GeoGebra is a complex mathematical application for those that study or work with arithmetic, geometry, algebra and calculus. This can be done with points, vectors, lines, conic sections. GeoGebra allows you to directly enter and manipulate equations and coordinates enabling you to plot functions, work with sliders to investigate parameters, find symbolic derivatives, and use powerful commands like Root or Sequence. However, the complexity of the program is mind boggling for those new to such mathematical applications. It's very difficult to work out how to use from scratch although there are several very detailed tutorials to help you on your way.

Abstract When students encounter the mathematics of wave motion, they are at a new level of mathematical sophistication, a step up from kinematics formulas and We have found that graphing the equations of wave motion and producing animations of various aspects of wave motion on a computer, coupled with live examples of the same phenomena, are helpful in understanding the mathematics of wave motion and connecting it to the real world. Without some real-world examples, the kind of work described here, although quite visual, is not terribly exciting to students jaded by computer games and television. Simultaneously relating the mathematics of wave motion to the computer graphics and to demonstrations of the same or similar phenomena seems to have a more dramatic and long-lasting effect than using either by itself. This article describes the graphics and animations that we generate with a computer algebra system (CAS), namely, Mathematica. Other software can also produce animations.1,2 Although many students have seen functions and graphs that involve trig functions in mathematics classes, they may not have connected them to the topic of wave motion. A CAS or spreadsheet animation utilizes the power of a computer to help make this connection clear. Finally, achieving the same results by asking students to graph functions with paper and pencil is clearly impossible, although some of the pencil and paper activities described by Arnold Arons3 are both realizable and extremely useful.
Trigonometry Review for Calculus Students All calculus students need to know and understand unit circle trigonometry, which includes know radians, the relationship between the unit circle and the sine and cosine functions, knowing tangent, cotangent, secant, cosecant, and the inverse trig functions: Arcsine, Arccosine etc. You need to know the value of the sum of the sqares of sine and cosine, the law of cosines, the double angle formulas, the formulas for cos(a+b), sin(a+b) and should have seen the proofs of all these identities. The best way to review this for your calculus courses, is to read the textbook you learned this material from and to practice problems. The textbook used at Lehman College is Cohen's Precalculus with Unit Circle Trigonometry. Keep in mind that it is possible that the class you took might not have covered all the necessary material or that you may not have learned all of it correctly. Be sure to review all the topics mentioned above and do practice problems. Tutorring is availble at the MATH LAB.

More About This Textbook Overview Computational science is fundamentally changing how technological questions are addressed. The design of aircraft, automobiles, and even racing sailboats is now done by computational simulation. The mathematical foundation of this new approach is numerical analysis, which studies algorithms for computing expressions defined with real numbers. Emphasizing the theory behind the computation, this book provides a rigorous and self-contained introduction to numerical analysis and presents the advanced mathematics that underpin industrial software, including complete details that are missing from most textbooks. Using an inquiry-based learning approach, Numerical Analysis is written in a narrative style, provides historical background, and includes many of the proofs and technical details in exercises. Students will be able to go beyond an elementary understanding of numerical simulation and develop deep insights into the foundations of the subject. They will no longer have to accept the mathematical gaps that exist in current textbooks. For example, both necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence of basic iterative methods are covered, and proofs are given in full generality, not just based on special cases. The book is accessible to undergraduate mathematics majors as well as computational scientists wanting to learn the foundations of the subject.

Exhibit A exhibit B Exhibit C Exhibit D The most important precalculus concept is the notion of a functional relationship between two variable quantities. This relationship may take many forms: linear functions, power functions, exponential functions, logarithmic functions, trig functions, polynomial functions, rational functions… Functions from these basic families may be combined, transformed, and inverted to produce still more functional forms. Functions also appear in various representations: formulas, graphs, data sets… You will have to be familiar with the basic families of functions, and all of their representations, in order to succeed in your study of calculus. The concept of function underlies everything that calculus considers. I'll get some more details up here sometime soon. In the meantime, here's the handout (.pdf). And here's the slide deck (.zip, and which—to be honest—was just a photo album on the iPad; the simplicity of this was liberating). One last thing…this is the absolute best form of session feedback, as far as I am concerned—getting to read someone else's notes on the session speaks volumes about what participants experienced (in contrast sometimes to what I think we did). The slides: UPDATE: This talk has been adapted to a paper submitted to Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School. I'll keep you posted on its progress. More lazy email(ish) excerpts. This one from a conversation about polar coordinates, and my Calculus II students' struggles with them last semester. — I don't fully understand the usefulness of polar coordinates as traditionally presented. I feel like a great deal of the focus is on the pretty pictures we get when trig functions interact with polar coordinates. Cardioids and all that. What do we gain from graphing this in PreCalc? When I taught Calculus 2 this past semester, it was clear that my students were struggling to sort out differences between cartesian coordinates and polar coordinates. They knew how to convert between polar and cartesian coordinates, but they didn't seem to know why one would do that, nor did they seem to see polar coordinates as a self-contained system. Polar coordinates were always (in their minds) in relation to cartesian coordinates. My students struggled to think about an angle as an independent variable that could change (and correspondingly a radius as a dependent variable that could change). They couldn't view a function defined in polar coordinates as a dynamic relationship. They could identify points one at a time. They could make their graphing calculators display polar graphs. But they couldn't think about the process of tracing out a polar graph. This seemed to be true even for students who could talk dynamically about cartesian graphs (increasing, decreasing, approaching an asymptote-this was terminology my students could apply to cartesian graphs, but not to polar ones). The precise conceptual nature of the relationship between polar coordinates and cartesian parametric equations is unclear to me. My students saw some relationships that they couldn't quite articulate. I'm interested in exploring this territory a bit. For the record, I was flying blind through this material last semester. It was the first time I had taught polar coordinates in any serious way. I have never taught precalculus. I had never taught Calculus 2 before. So I kept bumping into obstacles that I hadn't imagined would be there. I needed a polar-coordinates-based assignment for my Calculus 2 students, so I pounced on it. The question they have been working on is, How long will it take to mow the lawn? I read their work today. The following are some quotes from their writing. "Establishing the polar function was difficult at first, until I thought about it as just a plain linear function." "I tried going on the treadmill to see what a comfortable walking speed for mowing would be." "Sorry for making this 13 pages. I really got into it." "Sometimes math needs a little touch up; this is when Photoshop is there to save the day." "The real real-world problem is how to convince your wife to upgrade mowers." "Rather than dealing with negatives and reciprocals, this paper will assume the lawnmower 'un-mows' the lawn from inside to out." "After realizing that the point on the outer ede of a circle has to cover more linear distance than a point near the center, angular velocity seems like it might have some flaws." I see in these excerpts students making mathematical connections that result from their struggles with the problem. I see them posing and refining mathematical models based on correspondence to the real world. I see them looking at this small slice of the world through a mathematical lens. I am so proud of them. NOTE: In original post, I did not know who had posted the video to 101qs. David Cox came through for me on Twitter. Credit given in revised post. Same story in Calculus, of course. And you can substitute "calculator" for "algebra" to describe a whole mess of other math courses. Shouldn't we be ashamed of ourselves when we see this happening? Shouldn't we be designing courses (and course sequences) in which this is not possible? Isn't it time we (as a field) stopped living by last century's textbooks, allowing students to skate by on last century's skills? Should we be designing courses that require critical thinking; courses that require students to really, deeply learn the material?
Applied Math Sequence Description For 6th or 7th grade students who are preparing to take the Algebra in Motion™ sequence. This sequence gives them the arithmetic skills and reasoning needed to excel in Algebra. Has your student struggled to master their 6th grade or 7th grade curriculum? Often times this is a result of the material being presented in too abstract of a way. At QuantumCamp we are experts in creating richly contextualized content and concepts. Before moving on to an Algebra curriculum students should have mastered the following concepts and practices: fractions decimals percentages interpretation of data graphs real-world problem solving proportions basic ideas of geometry exponentials scientific notation properties of real numbers This course sequence has been designed in such a way that it can either replace or augment a more simple curriculum at the 6th and 7th grade level. The distinct advantage that this course has is that its topics are inherently interesting to students. And when your student is ready, they will find this course waiting for them. Sequence Designing Math This course combines several types of design and everyday implementations where an adult would need to quickly apply and understand how to use arithmetic. The Applied Mathematics sequence consists of three 30-hour courses that total 90 hours of material covering the arithmetic that a student would find in a 6th and 7th grade curriculum. Academic year sequences are held in 10 week classes each 3 hours long. Summer camps are held in a single week and cover 30 hours of material. Classes consist of hands-on activities, lecture, and practice problems. Academic year students are required to complete a minimal amount of practice problems. Prerequisites Students should be at a 5th grade level before taking this course. We have prepared a small Applied Math Readiness Assessment that will help you ascertain whether or not your student is ready to take this course. This test is to be administered by you and the results are only to help you make the best decision for your student. Satisfied CST Standards* *Please note that this course covers all of the 6th and 7th grade standards minus any algebraic concepts. We teach algebraic concepts in our specially designed Algebra in Motion™ sequence where these ideas are given a more proper conceptual underpinning. 6NS1 - 6th grade number sense Students compare and order positive and negative fractions, decimals, and mixed numbers.

... Show More the student versions of MATLAB 5, which provide unique means for exploring algebra and calculus by a minimum of commands and syntactic rules. In the first few chapters, MATLAB is used as an ordinary calculator. The concept of vectors is then introduced, and these serve as tools for drawing curves. The graphics is used in a direct way to find zeros, extreme points and limits, so that the relation to elementary arithmetic becomes obvious. By very simple and concrete methods the reader is guided through algebra, calculus, probability theory and curve fitting, ordinary differential equations, and Fourier analysis. The student is supposed to type the short scripts employed, thus gradually becoming acquainted with basic programming. Each group of subjects is completed by an introduction to the symbolic facilities of MATLAB. In this part of the software, the recipes of traditional mathematics are available, and analytic results may be obtained with little effort
Mathematics (2012-2013) Whether they had any interest in mathematics in high school, students often discover a new appreciation for the field at Sarah Lawrence College. In our courses—which reveal the inherent elegance of mathematics as a reflection of the world and how it works—abstract concepts literally come to life. That vitality further emerges as faculty members adapt course content to fit student needs, emphasizing the historical context and philosophical underpinnings behind ideas and theories. By practicing rigorous logic, creative problem solving, and abstract thought in small seminar discussions, students cultivate habits of mind that they can apply to every interest. With well-developed, rational thinking and problem-solving skills, many students continue their studies in mathematics, computer science, philosophy, medicine, law, or business; others go into a range of careers in fields such as insurance, technology, defense, and industry.
Elementary Linear Algebra, 10th Edition Elementary Linear Algebra 10th edition gives an elementary treatment of linear algebra that is suitable for a first course for undergraduate students. The aim is to present the fundamentals of linear algebra in the clearest possible way; pedagogy is the main consideration. Calculus is not a prerequisite, but there are clearly labeled exercises and examples (which can be omitted without loss of continuity) for students who have studied calculus. Technology also is not required, but for those who would like to use MATLAB, Maple, or Mathematica, or calculators with linear algebra capabilities, exercises are included at the ends of chapters that allow for further exploration using those tools. This title is available with WileyPLUS. This online teaching and learning environment integrates the entire digital textbook with the most effective instructor and student resources to fit every learning style. With WileyPLUS: Students achieve concept mastery in a rich, structured environment that's available 24/7 Instructors personalize and manage their course more effectively with assessment, assignments, grade tracking, and more. WileyPLUS can complement the textbook or replace the printed text altogether Highlights Relationships among Concepts – By continually revisiting the web of relationships among systems of equations, matrices, determinants, vectors, linear transformations, and eigenvalues, Anton helps students to perceive linear algebra as a cohesive subject rather than as a collection of isolated definitions and techniques. Proof Sketches – Students sharpen their mathematical reasoning skills and understanding of proofs by filling in justifications for proof steps in some exercises. Emphasizes Visualization – Geometric aspects of various topics are emphasized, to support visual learners, and to provide an additional layer of understanding for all students. The geometric approach naturally leads to contemporary applications of linear algebra in computer graphics that are covered in the text. Mathematically Sound – Mathematical precision appropriate for mathematics majors is maintained in a book whose explanations and pedagogy meet the needs of engineering, science, and business/economics students. The technology exercises that appeared in the previous edition have been moved to the web site that accompanies this text. Those exercises are designed to be solved using MATLAB, Maple, or Mathematica and are accompanied by data files in all three formats. The exercises and data can be downloaded from
"How do you humanize calculus and bring its equations and concepts to life? Larry Gonick's clever and delightful answer is to have characters talking, commenting, and joking-all while rigorously teaching equations and concepts and indicating calculus's utility. It's a remarkable accomplishment-and a lot of fun."
