This book presents the basic concepts of statistics and statistical inference using the dual mechanisms of scenarios and simulation. This approach helps readers to develop key intuitions and deep und
?This book is the result of a joint venture between Professor Akio Kawauchi, Osaka City University, well-known for his research in knot theory, and the Osaka study group of mathematics education, foun
This work examines the main directions of research conducted on the history of mathematics education. It devotes substantial attention to research methodologies and the connections between this field
This book explores terminology, frameworks, and research being conducted worldwide on virtual manipulatives. It brings together international authors who provide their perspectives on virtual manipula
This second edition provides mechanical engineering students and practicing engineers with the fundamental knowledge of numerical simulation using ANSYS to focus on solving practical engineering probl
The purpose of this research is to identify the categories of South Korean elementary teachers’ knowledge for teaching mathematics. Emerging from the data collected and the subsequent analysis are fiv
Attempts to understand various aspects of the empirical world often rely on modelling processes that involve a reconstruction of systems under investigation. Typically the reconstruction uses mathemat

?This book is about how teachers can use classroom mathematics tasks to support student learning, and presents data on the ways in which teachers used those tasks in a particular research project. It
In a volume emerging from a two-year Australian research project, scholars of education and professionals involved with professional education in a number of specific fields explain how electronic sim
This volume contains a number of studies on professional development that blend issues in mathematics education with issues of equity. The composition of U.S. schools is becoming more diverse while th
The complexity of modern-day problems in mechanical engineering makes relying on pure theory or pure experiment impractical at best and time-consuming and unwieldy at worst. And for a large class of e
This collection of research papers on artificial teaching environments is designed for educators and researchers who need to stay informed about the latest technologies for digital simulations. Editor
Transitioning between two worlds, students in the middle grades (4-9) are no longer elementary students but are not quite ready for the challenges of secondary school. The state departments of educati
Mathematics and Teaching uses case studies to explore complex and pervasive issues that arise in teaching. In this volume, school mathematics is the context in which to consider race, equity, politica
This unique book shows how to use colorful and imaginative children’s literature to enrich math lessons. The carefully selected poems, biographies, fiction, and nonfiction provide an authentic,
"This book examines the potential of games and simulations in online learning, and how the future could look as developers learn to use the emerging capabilities of the Semantic Web. It explores how t
The Effective Learning and Teaching in Higher Education series is packed with up-to-date advice, guidance and expert opinion on teaching in the key subjects in higher education today, and is backed up
Simulations create an environment in which students can apply theory to practice skills in the context of real-world issues. This book provides an introduction to the use of simulations, from creating
This book is intended as a supplement for undergraduate courses in Kinematics or Dynamics of Mechanisms, taught in Mechanical Engineering departments. As a MATLAB? supplement, it can be used with any
