The Teaching and Learning of Mathematics at University Level - An ICMI Study
This book arose from the ICMI Study into the teaching and learning of mathematics at university level that began with a conference in Singapore in 1998. The book looks at tertiary mathematics and its teaching from a number of aspects including practice, research, mathematics and other disciplines, technology, assessment, and teacher education.
Essentials of Mathematica: With Applications to Mathematics and Physics
Essential Mathematica: With Applications to Mathematics and Physics, based on the lecture notes of a course taught at the University of Illinois at Chicago to advanced undergrad and graduate students, teaches how to use Mathematica to solve a wide variety problems in mathematics and physics. It is illustrated with many detailed examples that require the student to construct meticulous, step-by-step, easy to read Mathematica programs.
Essentials of Statistics for the Social and Behavioral Sciences
Master the essential statistical skills used in social and behavioral sciences Essentials of Statistics for the Social and Behavioral Sciences distills the overwhelming amount of material covered in introductory statistics courses into a handy, practical resource for students and professionals. This accessible guide covers basic to advanced concepts in a clear, concrete, and readable style.
Hilbert Transforms: Volume 1 (Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications)
The Hilbert transform has many uses, including solving problems in aerodynamics, condensed matter physics, optics, fluids, and engineering. Written in a style that will suit a wide audience (including the physical sciences), this book will become the reference of choice on the topic, whatever the subject background of the reader.
Intended as a precursor to Algebra I, this course introduces math’s basic concepts, as well as the fundamentals that underlie some of its more complicated areas. Let Professor Siegel instruct your student with his knack for explaining both the how and why of key mathematical ideas and techniques, including whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percents, integers, exponents, square roots, and measurements.
