Peer reviewedSpan, Pieter; Overtoom-Corsmit, Ruth – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1986
Gifted secondary students not only solved problems better, faster, and with less assistance than average pupils, but also processed information in a different fashion. (MNS)
Descriptors: Concept Formation, Educational Research, Information Processing, Mathematics Education
Peer reviewedSchwartz, Judah L.; Yerushalmy, Michal – College Mathematics Journal, 1987
The Geometric Supposer computer software is described. It allows users to make any geometric construction that Euclid knew how to make. Some explorations with the Supposer are presented. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Graphics, Computer Software, Geometric Concepts, Geometric Constructions
Peer reviewedDiDomenico, Angelo S. – Mathematics Teacher, 1986
A theorem is given for a property of right triangles. From it, students can deduce significant relations. (MNS)
Descriptors: Geometric Concepts, Logical Thinking, Mathematics Instruction, Proof (Mathematics)
Peer reviewedLamb, John F., Jr. – Mathematics Teacher, 1987
Provided is an analysis, using concepts from geometry, algebra, and trigonometry, to explain the apparent loss of area in the rug-cutting puzzle. (MNS)
Descriptors: Algebra, Geometric Concepts, Mathematical Enrichment, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedLipp, Alan – Mathematics Teacher, 1987
The Peelle triangle is an organized presentation of information about points, segments, squares, and cubes. Developing the tables is discussed, with a proof. (MNS)
Descriptors: Geometric Concepts, Mathematical Enrichment, Mathematics Instruction, Proof (Mathematics)
Peer reviewedMansheim, Jan; Baldridge, Phyllis – Mathematics Teacher, 1987
Solutions to a problem on seating arrangements and one on a box-office situation are discussed; a statistical approach is used. Four computer programs are included. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Software, Learning Activities, Mathematics Instruction, Probability
Peer reviewedWood, Eric F. – Mathematics Teacher, 1987
Two relevant applications of mathematics and computer science are presented: International Standard Book Numbers (ISBN) that appear in textbooks and universal product codes that appear on grocery products. A computer program is included. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Software, Learning Activities, Mathematical Applications, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedHirsch, Christian R., Ed.; And Others – Mathematics Teacher, 1987
Three worksheets and teachers' notes for grades 8-12 are provided on symmetry. (MNS)
Descriptors: Geometric Concepts, Instructional Materials, Learning Activities, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedMathematics Teacher, 1985
A drill-and-practice game called "Digits Delight"; the story of Parabella (and Hyp and Elli); and a method for finding inverse functions, using Rubik's cube and algebra, are included. (MNS)
Descriptors: Algebra, Computation, Educational Games, Functions (Mathematics)
Peer reviewedBlake, Rick N. – Mathematics Teacher, 1985
The author uses Stella the Spider as the main character in a number of three-dimensional geometry problems. Eight of these problems are discussed, with solutions. (MNS)
Descriptors: Answer Keys, Geometric Concepts, Mathematics Instruction, Problem Sets
Peer reviewedHaigh, William E. – Mathematics Teacher, 1985
Use of the computer to simulate or imitate probability problems that are difficult to analyze in any other way is discussed. How the Monte Carlo method works is clarified, with sample problems and programs. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Software, Learning Activities, Mathematics Instruction, Microcomputers
Peer reviewedMathematics Teacher, 1986
Included are brief reports on an algebra quiz in a menu format; two activity sheets on base two; and an alternative method of teaching least common multiple and greatest common factor, and related ideas, with six lessons outlined. (MNS)
Descriptors: Algebra, Fractions, Learning Activities, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedMathematics Teacher, 1986
The graphing of intricate curves and the fundamental theorem of algebra lead to a third discovery with microcomputers: Lagrange polynomials. Teaching suggestions for helping students to explore continuous change, interpolation, roots, and shifting and symmetry are presented, with a computer program listing. (MNS)
Descriptors: Computer Software, Equations (Mathematics), Graphs, Mathematics Instruction
Peer reviewedKinach, Barbara – Mathematics Teacher, 1985
Activities that provide opportunities for students to investigate solving linear equations using both a physical and a pictorial model are given. Students should discover a method that will permit them to solve such equations at the symbolic level. (MNS)
Descriptors: Algebra, Instructional Materials, Learning Activities, Manipulative Materials
Peer reviewedRetzer, Kenneth A. – Mathematics Teacher, 1985
The role of sentential logic traditionally taught in high school geometry is challenged. A rationale for shifting that content to algebra and replacing it with inferential logic, which directly affects proof making, is given. (MNS)
Descriptors: Algebra, Geometry, Mathematical Logic, Mathematics Curriculum
