Cat has taught a variety of subjects, including communications, mathematics, and technology. Cat has a master's degree in education and is currently working on her Ph.D. Cite this lesson Binomial experiments have three characteristics: independent outcomes, only two possible outcomes, and a fixed...
In this research a WebQuest that can be used in mathematics education is prepared. It was designed to teach coordinate system to seventh grade students in an entertaining way. The prepared WebQuest is published in mathematicswebquest.sitemynet.com web site. The aim of this project is to incr...
Another way to determine whether an exponential function represents growth or decay is to examine the base of the variable exponent in the equation. If the base is greater than 1, it is exponential growth. If the base is between zero and 1, it will be exponential decay. Notice that the ...
Describe using both a pseudocode, and words to explain the pseudocode in detail, an algorithm for the multiplication What does ^ mean in mathematics? What type of problem solving approach does Dijkstra's algorithm use? What is meant by binary operatio...
Provide an example of a variable in mathematics. Give an example of a proportion problem and explain how to solve it. How do you use linear equations in real life? While solving a money problem (a type of algebra verbal problem), a student...
Written by seasoned practitioners with a view to practical implementation and problem-solving, the book's pedagogy is delivered clearly and without jargon using representative biological, physical and engineering problems. Code is provided on an ancillary website to support the use of Mathematica across...
Much of the current literature on teaching proof in school mathematics underscores the goal of helping students understand the limits of such example-based reasoning (e.g., Harel and Sowder 1998; Stylianides and Stylianides 2009; Zaslavsky et al. 2012) and typically characterizes example-based ...
Mathematics has always captivated me in how it is a language communicating the laws of the universe and a tool to improve our daily lives. This, alongside my thirst for learning and passion for problem-solving, informs my fascination for Mathematics as a discipline. I see the subject as the...
