Book Trigonometry  Geometry  and the Conception of Space

Download or read book Trigonometry Geometry and the Conception of Space written by Paul M. Tokorcheck and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-07 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Trigonometry, Geometry, and the Conception of Space is primarily a textbook for students of architecture, design, or any other subject that requires a strong, practical understanding of measurement. Topics that are traditionally included for future calculus students have been replaced with a study of three-dimensional space and geometry. The first portion of the book focuses on pure trigonometry: sets and numbers, the six trigonometric functions and their inverses, and applications. The second portion covers more geometric topics like cylindrical and spherical coordinate systems, conic sections, and quadric surfaces. The material emphasizes alternative ways to describe points in space and how to transfer between them. Written for highly visual courses exploring three-dimensional space and the objects that lie within it, Trigonometry, Geometry, and the Conception of Space offers fresh, modern instruction for classes in architecture, graphic design, and mathematics. Paul Tokorcheck earned his Ph.D. in mathematics at UC Santa Cruz, with research interests in group representations, number theory, and Lie theory. He is now a lecturer with the Department of Mathematics at Iowa State University. Apart from mathematics, Dr. Tokorcheck's life journey has taken him through a variety of jobs, from cooking in award-winning kitchens of California, to teaching high school in northern Ghana, to resettling refugees from the civil wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone."

Book Using Games and Simulations for Teaching and Assessment

Download or read book Using Games and Simulations for Teaching and Assessment written by Harold F. O'Neil and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using Games and Simulations for Teaching and Assessment: Key Issues comprises a multidisciplinary investigation into the issues that arise when using games and simulations for educational purposes. Using both theoretical and empirical analyses, this collection examines cognitive, motivational, and psychometric issues with a focus on STEM content. Unlike other research-based volumes that focus solely on game design or the theoretical basis behind gaming, this book unites previously disparate communities of researchers—from civilian to military contexts as well as multiple disciplines—to critically explore current problems and illustrate how instructionally effective games and simulations should be planned and evaluated. While computer-based simulations and games have the potential to improve the quality of education and training, Using Games and Simulations for Teaching and Assessment: Key Issues shows how the science of learning should underlie the use of such technologies. Through a wide-ranging yet detailed examination, chapter authors provide suggestions for designing and developing games, simulations, and intelligent tutoring systems that are scientifically-based, outcomes-driven, and cost-conscious.
