Download or read book The Words of Mathematics written by Steven Schwartzman and published by Mathematical Association of America. This book was released on 1996-09-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Words of Mathematics explains the origins of over 1500 mathematical terms used in English. While other dictionaries of mathematics define technical terms, this book concentrates on where those terms came from and what their literal meanings are. The words included here range from simple to advanced. This dictionary is easy to use. Although some of the entries are highly technical, the book explains them in plain English. The introduction gives an overview of how the ancient language known as Indo-European developed into Latin, Greek, French and English, the languages from which most of our mathematical vocabulary has been derived. Another section discusses the many ways in which mathematicians have borrowed and created their specialized vocabulary over the centuries. A glossary explains historical and linguistic terms used throughout the book.
Download or read book The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Mathematics written by Christopher Clapham and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-05-22 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authoritative and reliable, this A-Z provides jargon-free definitions for even the most technical mathematical terms. With over 3,000 entries ranging from Achilles paradox to zero matrix, it covers all commonly encountered terms and concepts from pure and applied mathematics and statistics, for example, linear algebra, optimisation, nonlinear equations, and differential equations. In addition, there are entries on major mathematicians and on topics of more general interest, such as fractals, game theory, and chaos. Using graphs, diagrams, and charts to render definitions as comprehensible as possible, entries are clear and accessible. Almost 200 new entries have been added to this edition, including terms such as arrow paradox, nested set, and symbolic logic. Useful appendices follow the A-Z dictionary and include lists of Nobel Prize winners and Fields' medallists, Greek letters, formulae, and tables of inequalities, moments of inertia, Roman numerals, a geometry summary, additional trigonometric values of special angles, and many more. This edition contains recommended web links, which are accessible and kept up to date via the Dictionary of Mathematics companion website. Fully revised and updated in line with curriculum and degree requirements, this dictionary is indispensable for students and teachers of mathematics, and for anyone encountering mathematics in the workplace.

Download or read book Definitions of Some Mathematical Terms for 11 18 Year Olds written by Brainard Braimah and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-11 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These definitions are essential to the study of Mathematics at the target age range. The book provides clear and simple definitions supported by examples and diagrams. Nearly 1000 mathematical terms are defined. The book is a reference for pupils, parents and mathematics teachers who are not mathematics specialists. The publication is an important resource for classroom practitioners for Mathematics. It is intended for teachers to explain clearly most of the Mathematical concepts learners will encounter. This has been done, with the needs of teachers and learners in mind, in a simple way and with examples to illustrate and enhance the meaning and application of key concepts. It is a must have publication. A great resource in the classroom, library and home. The Author has used his extensive experience to highlight the need for such a publication and has undertaken a remarkable task in producing this for practitioners in the classroom. Mr. Braimah is a village boy from Ghana who does not even know his correct age. An experienced Mathematics teacher, founder of after-school classes now in their 19th year, and possessor of an MBE, he is echoing the government's concern about the paucity of black role models for teenagers teetering on the edge of disillusion. "It's not just individual role models either," he said. Brainard Braimah, who has established and maintained a number of charities to improve employment and prospects for young people, won the Lifetime Difference Award in 2005. I am or have been a member of the following committees: CHEL, Education 2000 (Learning Partnership) Leeds West Indian Carnival, Leeds West Indian Centre and F1 Business Support.

Download or read book The Language of Mathematics Education written by Shannon W. Dingman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Language of Mathematics Education: An Expanded Glossary of Key Terms and Concepts in Mathematics Teaching and Learning offers mathematics teachers, mathematics education professionals and students a valuable resource in which common terms are defined and expounded upon in short essay format. The shared vocabulary and terminology relating to mathematics teaching and learning, and used by mathematics educators is an essential component of work conducted in the field. The authors provide an overview of more than 100 terms commonly used in mathematics teaching and learning. Each term is defined and is followed by a short overview of the concept under discussion that includes several bibliographic references the reader can use for further investigation. In addition to terms specific to the domain of mathematics education, select key terms common across all fields of education (e.g., curriculum, epistemology, metacognition) are included. The goal for this book is to serve as a resource for those entering the field as they navigate the language and terminology of mathematics education and as an asset for more established professionals who wish to gain additional insights into these ideas.
