Download or read book Teaching and Learning Discrete Mathematics Worldwide Curriculum and Research written by Eric W. Hart and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-09 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses examples of discrete mathematics in school curricula, including in the areas of graph theory, recursion and discrete dynamical systems, combinatorics, logic, game theory, and the mathematics of fairness. In addition, it describes current discrete mathematics curriculum initiatives in several countries, and presents ongoing research, especially in the areas of combinatorial reasoning and the affective dimension of learning discrete mathematics. Discrete mathematics is the math of our time.' So declared the immediate past president of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, John Dossey, in 1991. Nearly 30 years later that statement is still true, although the news has not yet fully reached school mathematics curricula. Nevertheless, much valuable work has been done, and continues to be done. This volume reports on some of that work. It provides a glimpse of the state of the art in learning and teaching discrete mathematics around the world, and it makes the case once again that discrete mathematics is indeed mathematics for our time, even more so today in our digital age, and it should be included in the core curricula of all countries for all students.

Download or read book Discrete Mathematics with Applications Metric Edition written by Susanna Epp and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 984 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DISCRETE MATHEMATICS WITH APPLICATIONS, 5th Edition, Metric Edition explains complex, abstract concepts with clarity and precision and provides a strong foundation for computer science and upper-level mathematics courses of the computer age. Author Susanna Epp presents not only the major themes of discrete mathematics, but also the reasoning that underlies mathematical thought. Students develop the ability to think abstractly as they study the ideas of logic and proof. While learning about such concepts as logic circuits and computer addition, algorithm analysis, recursive thinking, computability, automata, cryptography and combinatorics, students discover that the ideas of discrete mathematics underlie and are essential to today's science and technology.

Download or read book A Spiral Workbook for Discrete Mathematics written by Harris Kwong and published by Open SUNY Textbooks. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Spiral Workbook for Discrete Mathematics covers the standard topics in a sophomore-level course in discrete mathematics: logic, sets, proof techniques, basic number theory, functions,relations, and elementary combinatorics, with an emphasis on motivation. The text explains and claries the unwritten conventions in mathematics, and guides the students through a detailed discussion on how a proof is revised from its draft to a nal polished form. Hands-on exercises help students understand a concept soon after learning it. The text adopts a spiral approach: many topics are revisited multiple times, sometimes from a dierent perspective or at a higher level of complexity, in order to slowly develop the student's problem-solving and writing skills.

Download or read book Introduction to Quantitative Reasoning written by Neil Simonetti and published by Linus Learning. This book was released on 2020 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to QR, Quantitative Reasoning and Discrete Mathematics was designed for the introductory college student who may not have fully understood mathematical concepts in secondary schools. With a focus on applications, this book is divided into small digestible pieces with lots of examples illustrating a variety of topics. Use the whole book for a two semester sequence, or pick and choose topics to make a single semester course. The most basic of algebra topics are reintroduced, with an emphasis on learning how to translate scenarios into problems that can be solved or modeled with linear functions. Scientific notation and significant figures are applied to problems involving unit conversion, including examples with the Consumer Price Index. The basics of personal finance are explained, including interest, loans, mortgages, and taxes. Statistical topics are introduced to give the students the ability to look critically at the myriad of numerical sound bites tossed out in today’s social media. Combinatorics and probability topics are introduced in a way to be accessible to students seeing the material for the first time. Logic and graph theory are used to solve some traditional types of games and puzzles. Applications are connected to issues in modern Christianity with references to 18th century philosopher Emanuel Swedenborg, including why Intelligent Design does not act as proof of God, and how random chance and Divine Providence work together. Each chapter ends with a project related to the chapter, often involving spreadsheet programs or website data collection. About the Author Neil Simonetti, PhD, Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at Bryn Athyn College, has been teaching Mathematics, Computer Science and Operations Research courses for almost 20 years. He is committed to showing students who are afraid of mathematics that the basics of this subject do not have to be difficult and confusing. This work results from discovering what these students need in mathematics to succeed in business, science, and social science courses.
