Problems for Student Investigation
Author: Mic B. Jackson
Publisher: Mathematical Association of America (MAA)
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 224
Book Description
"Calculus students should be expected to work on problems that require imagination, outside reading and consultation, cooperation, and coherent writing. They should work on open-ended problems that admit several different approaches and call upon students to defend both their methodology and their conclusion. Here is a source of 30 such projects." -- p. ix.

Resources for Teaching Discrete Mathematics
Author: Brian Hopkins
Publisher: MAA
ISBN: 9780883851845
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
Hopkins collects the work of 35 instructors who share their innovations and insights about teaching discrete mathematics at the high school and college level. The book's 9 classroom-tested projects, including building a geodesic dome, come with student handouts, solutions, and notes for the instructor. The 11 history modules presented draw on original sources, such as Pascal's "Treatise on the Arithmetical Triangle," allowing students to explore topics in their original contexts. Three articles address extensions of standard discrete mathematics content. Two other articles explore pedagogy specifically related to discrete mathematics courses: adapting a group discovery method to larger classes, and using logic in encouraging students to construct proofs.

Applications of Calculus
Author: Philip D. Straffin, Jr
Publisher: Mathematical Association of America
ISBN: 9780883850855
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Students see how calculus can explain the structure of a rainbow, guide a robot arm, or analyze the spread of AIDS. Each module starts with a concrete problem and moves on to provide a solution. The discussions are detailed, realistic, and pay careful attention to the process of mathematical modeling. Exercises, solutions, and references are provided.

Mathematics for Social Justice: Resources for the College Classroom
Author: Gizem Karaali
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 1470449269
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
Mathematics for Social Justice offers a collection of resources for mathematics faculty interested in incorporating questions of social justice into their classrooms. The book begins with a series of essays from instructors experienced in integrating social justice themes into their pedagogy; these essays contain political and pedagogical motivations as well as nuts-and-bolts teaching advice. The heart of the book is a collection of fourteen classroom-tested modules featuring ready-to-use activities and investigations for the college mathematics classroom. The mathematical tools and techniques used are relevant to a wide variety of courses including college algebra, math for the liberal arts, calculus, differential equations, discrete mathematics, geometry, financial mathematics, and combinatorics. The social justice themes include human trafficking, income inequality, environmental justice, gerrymandering, voting methods, and access to education. The volume editors are leaders of the national movement to include social justice material into mathematics teaching. Gizem Karaali is Associate Professor of Mathematics at Pomona College. She is one of the founding editors of The Journal of Humanistic Mathematics, and an associate editor for The Mathematical Intelligencer and Numeracy ; she also serves on the editorial board of the MAA's Carus Mathematical Monographs. Lily Khadjavi is Associate Professor of Mathematics at Loyola Marymount University and is a past co-chair of the Infinite Possibilities Conference. She has served on the boards of Building Diversity in Science, the Barbara Jordan-Bayard Rustin Coalition, and the Harvard Gender and Sexuality Caucus.
