Kelly, Ronald R.; Mousley, Keith – 1999
This study compared the ability of college students with deafness and typical college students to transfer and apply their math computation and problem-solving skills to similar problems presented under different conditions. Thirty-seven students with deafness and 12 hearing students were given 30 math problems to solve that were presented under…

Hutton, B. Meriel – 1997
For the safety of the public, it is essential that nurses are competent at least in the mathematics that enables them to calculate medications accurately. From a survey by G. Hek (1994), it is apparent that mathematics is not universally included in the nursing curricula, nor asked for as a pre-requisite to entry. Changes in the profile of the…

Booth, Ada – Mathematics Teacher, 1973
The social science finding that two-thirds of a population of successful males are first-born sons provided the motivation for a problem solved by a 12th grade honors class. The class proved that the probability of choosing a first-born son from a male population is about two-thirds. (JP)

Feldstein, Mark; Niman, John – Impact on Instructional Improvement, 1974
The natural environment rings with mathematical sounds, as can be seen in the logarithmic spirals of elephant tusks, the hexagonal shapes of snowflakes and honeycomb cells, the rhythmic spouting of gysers, and in the circular growth of microscopic sea plants. Photographs reveal the mathematical relationships of familiar objects. (Author)

Sauter, G. D.; Ott, W. R. – Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association, 1974
Describes an algorithm for the determination of current and projected annual air pollution emissions from vehicles in any urban area. A computer program based on this algorithm, PAVE, has been developed. Results of applying the program to emissions from automobiles in the San Francisco Bay Area are presented and discussed.
