Get your children hooked on math! More than 60 hands-on activities suggest opportunities in daily life to learn math concepts. Fun but practical activities such as riding in the car, searching through a junk drawer, or playing a game together engage children in critical thinking and maximize their math potential. Follows NCTM guidelines.

Select the right task, at the right time, for the right phase of learning How can you best help K–2 students to become assessment-capable visible learners in mathematics? This book answers that question by showing Visible Learning strategies in action in high-impact mathematics instruction. Walk in the shoes of K–2 teachers as they mix and match strategies, tasks, and assessments, demonstrating that it’s not only what works, but when. A decision-making matrix and grade-leveled examples help you leverage the most effective teaching practices at the most effective time to meet the surface, deep, and transfer learning needs of every young student.

In a surprising sequence of developments, the longest increasing subsequence problem, originally mentioned as merely a curious example in a 1961 paper, has proven to have deep connections to many seemingly unrelated branches of mathematics, such as random permutations, random matrices, Young tableaux, and the corner growth model. The detailed and playful study of these connections makes this book suitable as a starting point for a wider exploration of elegant mathematical ideas that are of interest to every mathematician and to many computer scientists, physicists and statisticians. The specific topics covered are the Vershik-Kerov-Logan-Shepp limit shape theorem, the Baik-Deift-Johansson theorem, the Tracy-Widom distribution, and the corner growth process. This exciting body of work, encompassing important advances in probability and combinatorics over the last forty years, is made accessible to a general graduate-level audience for the first time in a highly polished presentation.

Mathematics and Computer Science III contains invited and contributed papers on combinatorics, random graphs and networks, algorithms analysis and trees, branching processes, constituting the Proceedings of the Third International Colloquium on Mathematics and Computer Science, held in Vienna in September 2004. It addresses a large public in applied mathematics, discrete mathematics and computer science, including researchers, teachers, graduate students and engineers.

Mathematics 1 has been written for the first semester students of all branches of engineering courses for ASTU. The entire book has been developed with an eye on the physical interpretations of concepts, application of the notions in engineering and technology, and precision through its solved examples. Author’s long experience of teaching at various levels has played an instrumental role towards this end. An emphasis on various techniques of solving complex problems will be of immense help to the students. Key Features • Brief but just discussion of theory • Examination Oriented approach • Techniques of solving difficult questions • Solution for a large number of technical problems
