José Vidarte; Nancy Chachapoyas – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Jordan canonical form (JCF) is one of the most important, and useful, concepts in linear algebra. Mathematics, physics, biology, science and engineering undergraduates often find the first application of real JCF in the discipline of differential equations (continuous models) to solving systems of differential equations. In this work, we apply…

Prates, Jorge Marques; Melo, Silvana Morita; Valle, Pedro Henrique Dias; Garcia, Rogério Eduardo; Maldonado, José Carlos – Informatics in Education, 2023
Nowadays, SPOCs (Small Private Online Courses) have been used as complementary methods to support classroom teaching. SPOCs are courses that apply the usage of MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), combining classroom with online education, making them an exciting alternative for contexts such as emergency remote teaching. Although SPOCs have been…
