Download or read book Exploring Classical Greek Construction Problems with Interactive Geometry Software written by Ad Meskens and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2017-02-02 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the classical Greek construction problems are explored in a didactical, enquiry based fashion using Interactive Geometry Software (IGS). The book traces the history of these problems, stating them in modern terminology. By focusing on constructions and the use of IGS the reader is confronted with the same problems that ancient mathematicians once faced. The reader can step into the footsteps of Euclid, Viète and Cusanus amongst others and then by experimenting and discovering geometric relationships far exceed their accomplishments. Exploring these problems with the neusis-method lets him discover a class of interesting curves. By experimenting he will gain a deeper understanding of how mathematics is created. More than 100 exercises guide him through methods which were developed to try and solve the problems. The exercises are at the level of undergraduate students and only require knowledge of elementary Euclidean geometry and pre-calculus algebra. It is especially well-suited for those students who are thinking of becoming a mathematics teacher and for mathematics teachers.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years geometry seems to have lost large parts of its former central position in mathematics teaching in most countries. However, new trends have begun to counteract this tendency. There is an increasing awareness that geometry plays a key role in mathematics and learning mathematics. Although geometry has been eclipsed in the mathematics curriculum, research in geometry has blossomed as new ideas have arisen from inside mathematics and other disciplines, including computer science. Due to reassessment of the role of geometry, mathematics educators and mathematicians face new challenges. In the present ICMI study, the whole spectrum of teaching and learning of geometry is analysed. Experts from all over the world took part in this study, which was conducted on the basis of recent international research, case studies, and reports on actual school practice. This book will be of particular interest to mathematics educators and mathematicians who are involved in the teaching of geometry at all educational levels, as well as to researchers in mathematics education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This survey book reviews four interrelated areas: (i) the relevance of heuristics in problem-solving approaches – why they are important and what research tells us about their use; (ii) the need to characterize and foster creative problem-solving approaches – what type of heuristics helps learners devise and practice creative solutions; (iii) the importance that learners formulate and pursue their own problems; and iv) the role played by the use of both multiple-purpose and ad hoc mathematical action types of technologies in problem-solving contexts – what ways of reasoning learners construct when they rely on the use of digital technologies, and how technology and technology approaches can be reconciled.

Download or read book Youngsters Solving Mathematical Problems with Technology written by Susana Carreira and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-19 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to both mathematical problem solving and the communication of mathematics by students, and the role of personal and home technologies in learning beyond school. It does this by reporting on major results and implications of the Problem@Web project that investigated youngsters’ mathematical problem solving and, in particular, their use of digital technologies in tackling, and communicating the results of their problem solving, in environments beyond school. The book has two focuses: Mathematical problem solving skills and strategies, forms of representing and expressing mathematical thinking, technological-based solutions; and students ́ and teachers ́ perspectives on mathematics learning, especially school compared to beyond-school mathematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential benefits of ICT have been identified by many countries in the world. Therefore, the essential requirement for schools and educational institutions have been made to expand teaching and learning environments and increasing the demand for education and training in most of the countries in the world. Geometry is a very significant study in the field of mathematics. It is a subset of the mathematics subject which associates with culture, history, art and design. Furthermore, geometry is commonly used to model the real-world concept which has many applications in solving practical problems. The methodical group geometrical knowledge of the ancient Greeks is one of the major successes of classical geometry. Learning geometry makes the secondary students develop some basic skills which include logical thinking abilities; spatial intuition about the universe; comparing and generalising; being careful and patient; as well as the reading and comprehension of geometrical concepts. The dynamic geometry computer software allows the users to construct geometry figures or shapes and to measure the variables of the shapes and determine the properties of them. It allows the users to; drag the figures through the screen, make geometric constructions and explain the facts about these constructions as well as test them so that the user will generalise the facts. The interactive learning environments of dynamic geometry computer software support the teaching and learning of abstract geometrical concepts in mathematics. The dynamic geometry computer software influenced students in gaining student-centered education and self-regulation. The integration of dynamic geometry computer software in learning geometry will enhance the construction knowledge in addition to the communication and dissemination of ideas in the geometry classroom.

Due to its nature, the book will appeal to a broad audience within the educational measurement community. It contributes to both theoretical knowledge and also pays attention to practical implementation of innovations in testing technology.
Download or read book Selected Topics In Geometry With Classical Vs Computer Proving written by Pavel Pech and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007-11-12 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook presents various automatic techniques based on Gröbner bases elimination to prove well-known geometrical theorems and formulas. Besides proving theorems, these methods are used to discover new formulas, solve geometric inequalities, and construct objects — which cannot be easily done with a ruler and compass.Each problem is firstly solved by an automatic theorem proving method. Secondly, problems are solved classically — without using computer where possible — so that readers can compare the strengths and weaknesses of both approaches.
Download or read book Mathematical Problem Posing written by Florence Mihaela Singer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 587 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mathematics education community continues to contribute research-based ideas for developing and improving problem posing as an inquiry-based instructional strategy for enhancing students’ learning. A large number of studies have been conducted which have covered many research topics and methodological aspects of teaching and learning mathematics through problem posing. The Authors' groundwork has shown that many of these studies predict positive outcomes from implementing problem posing on: student knowledge, problem solving and posing skills, creativity and disposition toward mathematics. This book examines, in-depth, the contribution of a problem posing approach to teaching mathematics and discusses the impact of adopting this approach on the development of theoretical frameworks, teaching practices and research on mathematical problem posing over the last 50 years.
