Résumé : | Rediscovering Mathematics is principally a guide to effective mathematical education. However, its collection of topics and puzzles will also inspire a renewed interest in mathematics among students and enthusiasts. The book focuses on problem solving and understanding, and discourages learning by rote memorization. Its topics include number theory and its applications to secure communication over the Internet, and applications of probability to sports and gambling. The topics are linked by the common theme of mathematical learning through investigation and discovery. It is suitable for anyone who wants to expand their view of mathematics. It can be used as a text for training math teachers at all levels, and is recommended for anyone interested in mathematics and how mathematics should be taught. Rediscovering Mathematics provides a fresh view of mathematics for those who already like the subject, and offers a second chance for those who think they hate it. |
