Towards Higher Mathematics: A Companion
Title: Towards Higher Mathematics: A Companion | Author(s): Richard Earl | Publisher: Cambridge University Press | Year: 2017 | Language: English | Pages: 540 | Size: 11 MB | Extension: pdf
Containing a large and varied set of problems, this rich resource will allow students to stretch their mathematical abilities beyond the school syllabus, and bridge the gap to university-level mathematics. Many proofs are provided to better equip students for the transition to university. The author covers substantial extension material using the language of sixth form mathematics, thus enabling students to understand the more complex material. Exercises are carefully chosen to introduce students to some central ideas, without building up large amounts of abstract…
Teaching School Mathematics: Algebra
Title: Teaching School Mathematics: Algebra | Author(s): Hung-Hsi Wu | Publisher: American Mathematical Society | Year: 2016 | Language: English | Pages : 274 | Size: 2 MB | Extension: pdf
This is a systematic exposition of introductory school algebra written specifically for Common Core era teachers. The emphasis of the exposition is to give a mathematically correct treatment of introductory algebra. For example, it explains the proper use of symbols, why variable is not a mathematical concept, what an equation is, what equation-solving means, how to define the slope of a line correctly, why the graph of a linear equation in two variables is a straight line, why every straight line is the graph of a linear equation in two variables, how to use the shape of the graph…
