Mathematical Applications and Modelling: Yearbook 2010, Association of Mathematics Educators
"Mathematical Applications and Modelling" is the second in the series of the yearbooks of the Association of Mathematics Educators in Singapore. The book is unique as it addresses a focused theme on mathematics education. The objective is to illustrate the diversity within the theme and present research that translates into classroom pedagogies.
Social Constructivism as a Philosophy of Mathematics
Extends the ideas of social constructivism to the philosophy of mathematics, developing a powerful critique of traditional absolutist conceptions of mathematics, and proposing a reconceptualization of the philosophy of mathematics.
This volume highlights some of the current interests of researchers working at the interface between string theory and algebraic geometry. The topics covered include manifolds of special holonomy, supergravity, supersymmetry, D-branes, the McKay correspondence and the Fourier-Mukai transform.
The text represents a serious effort to produce exposition that is accessible to a student at the freshmen or high school levels. The chapters of this book are well suited for a one semester course in College Trigonometry.
Active Maths - Problem Solving Maths for 10 -12 Year Olds
Applied mathematics activities which are thematically grouped and are structured to present an increasing level of difficulty with each successive sheet on the theme
