Kendoku - Extreme
Author: David Levy
Publisher: Seven Footer Press
ISBN: 9781934734186
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
Hot on the heels of the first two volumes,Kendoku: Extremeshows that when it comes to mind-bendingly difficult logic/arithmetic puzzles, too much is never enough! Combining the logic of Sudoku with the math play of KenKen, Kendoku’s rules are simple enough: The puzzles, either 6x6 or 9x9, look like Killer Sudoku games but in addition to numbers, players also must contend with math operators (+ - × ÷) within "fences” on the puzzle. The total at the top left of the fenced area is arrived at by using the operator on all the numbers within the fenced area. The solution is a valid Sudoku solution. But unlike in Killer Sudoku, in Kendoku numbers are allowed to be repeated within a fenced area as long as the result doesn't break the rules for a valid Sudoku.

Directions For Mathematics Research Experience For Undergraduates
Author: Yanir A Rubinstein
Publisher: World Scientific
ISBN: 9814630330
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
'The collection transcends the traditional institutional division lines (private, public, large, small, research, undergraduate, etc.) and has something to offer for readers in every realm of academia. The collection challenges the reader to think about how to implement and improve undergraduate research experiences, what such experiences mean to students and faculty, and how such experiences can take a permanent place in the modern preparation of undergraduate mathematics and STEM majors. The book is an open invitation to learn about what has worked and what hasn’t in the inspiration, and has the potential to ignite initiatives with long-lasting benefits to students and faculty nationwide.' See Full ReviewNotices of the AMS“The US National Science Foundation (NSF) Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program in mathematics is now 25 years old, and it is a good time to think about what it has achieved, how it has changed, and where this idea will go next.”This was the premise of the conference held at Mt. Holyoke College during 21-22 June, 2013, and this circle of ideas is brought forward in this volume. The conference brought together diverse points of view, from NSF administrators, leaders of university-wide honors programs, to faculty who had led REUs, recent PhDs who are expected to lead them soon, and students currently in an REU themselves. The conversation was so varied that it justifies a book-length attempt to capture all that was suggested, reported, and said. Among the contributors are Ravi Vakil (Stanford), Haynes Miller (MIT), and Carlos Castillo-Chavez (Arizona, President's Obama Committee on the National Medal of Science 2010-2012).This book should serve not only as a collection of speakers' notes, but also as a source book for anyone interested in teaching mathematics and in the possibility of incorporating research-like experiences in mathematics classes at any level, as well as designing research experiences for undergraduates outside of the classroom.
