The game of roulette is analyzed. (SD)

Presents the use of quantity calculus in calculations arising in volumetric analysis and in the more general field of chemical stoichiometrics. (HM)

The conception, objectives, contents, and limitations of a degree program in the mathematical sciences at Pennsylvania State University, Capitol Campus, are discussed. Career goals that may be pursued include: managerial, science, education, actuarial, and computer. (MP)

Studies the relationship between Eulerian and Lagrangian coordinate systems with the help of computer plots of variables such as density and particle displacement. Gives examples which illustrate the differences in the shape of a traveling wave as seen by observers in the two systems. (Author/GA)

A possible answer is given to the question that asks why are so many unable to apply the mathematical skill acquired at school to everyday situations. (MP)

Four elementary mathematical games and three parodies of Poe's "The Raven" are presented. (BB)

Four broad categories of mathematical skills are suggested as general education goals: academic mathematics, consumer mathematics, machine mathematics, and political mathematics. (MP)

Rapid expansion of numerical control (NC) machining in industry has created the need for inclusion of NC basic concepts in the industrial education curriculum. The author describes an NC unit in an industrial technology class and the program sheet and NC worksheet that he developed for machining a product. (MF)

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)

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)

Discusses areas where minimal sculpture and geometrical play overlap. (GA)

Discusses how the International System (SI) abbreviations for numerical factors designated as prefixes may be treated in quantity calculus as free-standing algebraic symbols. Illustrative examples are also presented. (HM)

Suggested is an approach to computer education that has as its basis a specific application, as opposed to computer technology as an end in itself. (MP)

Examples are provided of a method of successive approximations suitable for use in a freshman level chemistry course. (CP)

Two areas of mathematics--continued fractions and dimensional analysis--are focused upon as topics that are teachable applications at the pre-calculus levels of mathematics. (MN)
