By focusing on problem solving, and discouraging rote memorization, the book shows how to learn and teach mathematics through investigation, experimentation, and discovery. Rediscovering Mathematics is also an excellent text for training math teachers at all levels. Topics range in difficulty and cover a wide range of historical periods, with some examples demonstrating how to uncover mathematics in everyday life, including: number theory and its application to secure communication over the Internet, the algebraic and combinatorial work of a medieval mathematician Rabbi, and applications of probability to sports, casinos, and gambling.

Book excerpt: ________________________________________Math is not a difficult subject if approached correctly.Logic, common sense, and clarity of thought are what is needed.________________________________________Parents often assume that all it takes to be a good tutor is an excellent knowledge of math. This is a short-sighted view. A teacher should also know how to communicate with students and be able to motivate them to better performance.Good math tutoring is expensive and not always easy to find. This little book will tell parents what qualities to look for in a private tutor.I encourage parents to become more involved with their kids. Parents provide motivation which can be the single most crucial factor in determining the final outcome for students. Parents, however, need not know much math themselves. The fact that they take an interest in their children's studies, monitor their work, and keep an eye on their performance makes all the difference.Many private tutors would like to teach math but are unsure of the depth of their knowledge. My two earlier books, MATH GOLD and MATH GOLD tpe, provide an in-depth overview of four years of high school math, explaining nearly all concepts simply and concisely, often with brief examples.There aren't many books currently available that provide a rapid overview of all that is covered in high school math. Furthermore, parents do not have the time or the patience to plow through hundreds of pages of math textbooks. Hence, these twin facts make these books indispensable.________________________________________Keep Math Simple! will give you a more clear understanding of how to help your student or child perform better on the SAT/ACT tests.Get your copy now!

Download or read book Tiger Math written by Michelle You and published by . This book was released on 2016-08-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tiger Math series was designed based on my three beliefs toward elementary math education. 1. It is extremely important to build foundation of math by acquiring a sense of numbers and mastering the four operation skills in terms of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. 2. In math, one should go through all steps in order, step by step, and cannot jump from level 1 to 3. 3. Practice math every day, even if only for 10 minutes. The goals of Tiger Math Level D - 4 are 1) to practice changing addition to multiplication and 2) to practice and memorize multiplication of 1 digit number by 1 digit number.

Download or read book Mathematics Explained Differently written by J. M. Green and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-06-12 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHO needs this book? Are you finding high school mathematics a little confusing or difficult? There is an excellent chance then that we can fix this problem by changing the way mathematics is explained. WHY do you need it? While some students seem to easily understand traditional mathematics explanations there are others who do not. Those who experience difficulty will learn more easily from explanations that are self-constructed and less formal. The explanations in this book help to do that. They are different to those found in many textbooks. HOW does the book do this? The "Self Tutor" explanations in this book are not difficult. They cover certain key elements of the work taught in Grades 7 to 10. Once you work through these you will find the mathematics that you then do at school will be much more easily understood. In pre-publishing trials students said that they found the book's explanations more helpful than private tuition. Adults who wish to update their mathematical skills will also find this book useful. The same applies to university students studying teaching. Finally, school libraries and teachers too will benefit from this book. A PARENT'S TESTIMONIAL This little gem was a turning point for my 13-year-old son who was struggling with Math at school.The book is written in such a way that a parent is also able to understand the mathematics and is therefore able to assist the child who is using it. This aspect of the book i.e. a readership catering for both adults and children alike is one of its great strengths. In the space of a few short weeks my son's motivation and understanding of the subject improved significantly and now he is towards the top of his class. I think this is because of the way concepts are generously illustrated with very unique explanations. We never felt intimidated by any of the explanations. For the most part the explanations are relatively easy to understand, interesting, and empowering. I found myself reminiscing the fact that this book was not around when I was at school. I would have no hesitation recommending this book to a friend with a 13-year-old child who is struggling with Math at school. ........... Mel Carter.
