Peer reviewedMathematics Teacher, 1979
Topics covered include alternate methods for finding LCM and GCF, imaginative word problems, and a primes-breakdown method of factoring quadratics. (MP)
Descriptors: Algebra, Algorithms, Instruction, Learning Activities
Peer reviewedRauff, James V. – Mathematics Teacher, 1979
Four broad categories of mathematical skills are suggested as general education goals: academic mathematics, consumer mathematics, machine mathematics, and political mathematics. (MP)
Descriptors: Basic Skills, Consumer Education, General Education, Instruction
Peer reviewedBanerjee, Bharati; Sinha, D. K. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1978
This paper, after analyzing the meaning of "applied mathematics," seeks to explore and set forth some broad outlines of the pedagogical implications of studies in the application of mathematics. (Author/MP)
Descriptors: Elementary School Mathematics, Elementary Secondary Education, Instruction, Mathematical Applications
Peer reviewedPower, Colin; McBryde, Bruce – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 1978
This evaluation represents two case studies in which the aim is to assess, while attempting to account for, the successes and failures of innovatory programs involving the use of minicomputer facilities in schools. (Author/MP)
Descriptors: Computer Oriented Programs, Computers, Instructional Innovation, Mathematics Education
Peer reviewedSims, B. – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 1978
Two articles in the "Scientific American" form the background of this note. The rainbow angle for the primary bow of a monochromatic Cartesian rainbow is calculated. Special projects for senior high school students could be patterned after this quantitative study. (MP)
Descriptors: Calculus, Instruction, Instructional Materials, Mathematical Applications
Peer reviewedWenninger, Magnus J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1978
A method is given for the analysis of geodesic domes involving plane geometry. The method shows how to calculate all necessary angles and chords, given the length of one side. (MP)
Descriptors: Geometry, Instruction, Learning Activities, Mathematical Enrichment
Brady, J. M.; Emanuel, R. B. – Creative Computing, 1978
A system is illustrated in which a game-winning strategy can be discovered and used. This involves students writing computer programs to play some game and then playing their programs against each other. (MP)
Descriptors: Cognitive Processes, Computer Programs, Computers, Games
Peer reviewedKoop, Anthony J.; Fraser, Barry J. – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 1978
From a set of history of mathematics materials, a play and an article were selected for evaluation through opinions of experts, survey of teachers, and changes in students' affective and cognitive outcomes. (MP)
Descriptors: Attitudes, Educational Research, Evaluation, Instruction
Goodson, Bobby – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
This bibliography lists books containing classroom-ready materials that can be used in conjunction with routine mathematics lessons. A description is given of six of these books. (MP)
Descriptors: Annotated Bibliographies, Bibliographies, Calculators, Computation
Shin, Joseph – Calculators/Computers Magazine, 1978
Results are given of a 14-question survey of students related to the use of calculators in school. The use of mathematical tables as opposed to calculators is discussed. (MP)
Descriptors: Attitudes, Calculators, Computation, Educational Research
Peer reviewedStaib, John – Mathematics Teacher, 1979
This problem solving strategy is illustrated by examples from the fields of algebra, trigonometry, geometry, and calculus. (MP)
Descriptors: Algebra, Calculus, Concept Formation, Geometry
Peer reviewedLulli, Henry – School Science and Mathematics, 1978
Construction of a series of 13 nested, regular tetrahedrons from 12 square sheets of paper without using geometric instruments, scissors, or glue is described. (MN)
Descriptors: Experiential Learning, Geometry, Instructional Materials, Manipulative Materials
Peer reviewedAmerican Mathematical Monthly, 1978
A history of mathematics course intended for junior and senior mathematics majors having some courses beyond calculus is described. The course involves readings, class discussions, lectures, and individual student reports. (MN)
Descriptors: College Preparation, Guidelines, Instruction, Mathematics Curriculum
Kelanic, Thomas J. – Creative Computing, 1978
A brief description of the operation of Euclid (a theorem-proving computer program written by the author) is given and directions to be taken in its continuing development are indicated. (MN)
Descriptors: Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Programs, Geometry, Individualized Instruction
Peer reviewedCorbet, James J.; Milton, J. Susan – Mathematics Teacher, 1978
The idea of "complete permutations" of n distinct objects is explored in order to investigate an application of the concept that arises in Rex Stout's mystery novel, Too Many Cooks. (MN)
Descriptors: Discovery Learning, Instructional Materials, Mathematical Applications, Mathematics Education
