Book Synopsis Student's Companion in Mathematics by : Verity Egho
Download or read book Student's Companion in Mathematics written by Verity Egho and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is mathematics? How are things done in mathematics? What is the meaning of words or terms used in mathematics? What is the real meaning of Equations as we see them in mathematics? There are things a student is supposed to know or understand first about mathematics before he or she can understand usual mathematics. It is lack of knowledge of these certain 'things' that usually makes the subject difficult to understand - for many students. Unknowingly, students usually move into mathematics without first hearing what mathematics is about, its origins, how things are done in the subject, why alphabets are used in mathematics and their meaning, the meaning of words in mathematics and the real meaning of equations in mathematics explained in plain English Language. Lack of knowledge of these and more surely makes the subject to be like an unknown ground for many students. Students without the basic foundation information on mathematics try and try to understand what they see done in books and in the classroom. This book provides an end to all that. Mathematics is a simple straightforward subject if the basic foundation information about the subject are known, including information on how things are done in the subject and the meaning of everything you see in the subject. All these are explained in simple English Language in this book. After reading this book thoroughly, a student would find things in usual mathematics textbooks and what mathematics teachers say or do in a math class to be plain and understandable. The book is planned to bring a student thoroughly into regular school mathematics.It is written for: (1) New High school (secondary school) students, so as to find mathematics easy from the start.(2) Students who are finding mathematics difficult, so as to trace their way into mathematics and start to find the subject easy.(3) And for whoever wishes to know what mathematics is about, meaning of things in mathematics, and how things are done in mathematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge International Companion to Gifted Education is a ground-breaking collection of fully-referenced chapters written by many of the most highly-respected authorities on the subject from around the world. These fifty contributors include distinguished scholars who have produced many of the most significant advances to the field over the past few decades, like Joseph Renzulli and Robert Sternberg, alongside authorities who ask questions about the very concepts and terminology embodied in the field – scholars such as Carol Dweck and Guy Claxton. This multi-faceted volume: highlights strategies to support giftedness in children, providing ideas that work and weeding out those that don’t; is written in jargon-free language in an easy-to use themed format; is the most authoritative collection of future-focused views, ideas and reflections, practices and evaluations yet produced; includes chapters dealing with the major controversies and concerns in the field today, from the problems of identification to changing understandings of giftedness and creativity. The international aspect of the Companion, and its juxtaposition of points of view – whereby chapters are deliberately positioned and accompanied by editorial commentary to highlight the contrasts with each other – ensures that different views are addressed, allowing the reader to absorb and reflect upon the many perspectives on each issue. The Companion is a guide to the new ideas and controversies that are informing gifted education discussion and policy-making around the world. It is a first class resource to students and researchers alike.
