Each years content in six math courses is boiled down into its essential vocabulary and five to seven key concepts with particular attention paid to clarity and articulation between courses. (Education/Teaching)

"Does the Math For Everyone[ curriculum work?" Examine the following student work and ask yourself, "What grade (A, B, C, D, F) does this student deserve for different math levels (example, 7th grade math, 8th grade Algebra I, 9th grade Geometry, 10th grade Algebra II, 11th grade Pre-Calculus / Math Analysis, 12th grade Calculus)? What intervention does this student need to succeed in math? Which students should be teamed up, maybe with a bonus offered to the higher-achieving student if the low-achieving student makes progress?" Assume sets of tests are in order from older to newer. If multiple tests of the same assessment are provided, then ask yourself, "Is this student learning?" Note: The prompts for the quizzes shown here can be found in the Math For Everyone[ books. The full version of this book and all Math For Everyone[ books are available on Google Books and you can see and provide feedback at FeedbackMax.com.

In this fun look at area and perimeter, dinnertime becomes a real mess as guests rearrange the carefully placed tables and chairs.

Rock separates math topics into those which are essential and nonessential so that the struggling math student can focus on the math topics which will return the greatest effect in the shortest amount of time. (Mathematics)

This text for a second course in linear algebra, aimed at math majors and graduates, adopts a novel approach by banishing determinants to the end of the book and focusing on understanding the structure of linear operators on vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and to simplify proofs. For example, the book presents - without having defined determinants - a clean proof that every linear operator on a finite-dimensional complex vector space has an eigenvalue. The book starts by discussing vector spaces, linear independence, span, basics, and dimension. Students are introduced to inner-product spaces in the first half of the book and shortly thereafter to the finite- dimensional spectral theorem. A variety of interesting exercises in each chapter helps students understand and manipulate the objects of linear algebra. This second edition features new chapters on diagonal matrices, on linear functionals and adjoints, and on the spectral theorem; some sections, such as those on self-adjoint and normal operators, have been entirely rewritten; and hundreds of minor improvements have been made throughout the text.
