In contemporary education, mathematics education is the practice of teaching and learning mathematics, along with the associated scholarly research
Researchers in mathematics education are primarily concerned with the tools, methods and approaches that facilitate practice or the study of practice; however, mathematics education research, known on the continent of Europe as the didactics or pedagogy of mathematics, has developed into an extensive field of study, with its concepts, theories, methods, national and international organisations, conferences and literature. This article describes some of the history, influences and recent controversies.

Hello! On this Fall Semester, I will be taking the Linear Algebra with Proofs (Friedberg), Analysis I (Rudin-PMA) or Abstract Algebra I (Dummit/Foote), and Combinatorics (Brualdi). Since I can take only one from Analysis I or AAI on Fall, I am trying to figure out if the introductory...
I am a Physics major looking into Mathematical Biology (perhaps) in the future, and regardless of where I go, I'm trying to build a solid math background for myself.
I've taken (or plan to take):
Linear Algebra I
Calculus I, II, III, IV
ODE
Non-linear ODE
PDE
Complex Variables (I will...
Hey guys, I'm hoping to get some advice on how to approach this course I'm currently enrolled in.
I'm currently enrolled in linear algebra 1, while I think they're pretty generic for outlines, this is what my school says:
Before the midterm I was doing the assignments and, for the most part...
Homework Statement
So the question is, Prove the following:
Let A be an n x n matrix. If there exists a vector v in Rn that is not a linear
combination of the columns of A, then at least one column of A is not a pivot column.
Homework Equations
The only relevant theorem I think is the...
Homework Statement
An even integer can be written as the expression 2n. Find three consecutive even integers with a sum of 54.
Homework Equations
None, this was a challenge question.
The Attempt at a Solution
I got that the sum of the digits in 104 (2*52) equals 54 but cannot see...
I would like to check my reasoning for this problem to make sure I understand what an orthogonal matrix is.
Homework Statement
Determine if the matrix is orthogonal. If orthogonal, find the inverse.
\begin{pmatrix}
-1 & 2 & 2\\
2 & -1 & 2\\
2 & 2 & -1
\end{pmatrix}

I need a book to self-study, because in Physics we don't have this discipline. The only mathematics I learned were linear algebra and calculus for multivariate functions. The things I need to know are (these is my university's Algebra I):
- Integers
- Groups, rings and fields
- Polynomials'...
As I mentioned in another post I'm trying to keep up with my math class and since I didn't finish high school there's some things I have to learn on my own. Heres a few things that I didn't figure out in the class. This is in chronological order, things are gradually getting more complex so I'd...
Homework Statement
K = {x C S7 | 2x=2, {1,4}x={1,4}, {1,5,7}x={1,5,7}}.
Draw Lattice Diagram for K.2. The attempt at a solution
I've looked at this for about 30 minutes and came to the conclusion that there are 140 unique solutions to this mapping, and I know for a fact that the professor...
this is from a Diff EQ but but its just algebra i think??
I'm just working through an example here and its say to solve the equation
(y/k)=(ynot/k)/((ynot/k)-[1(ynot/k]e^(-rt))
for t. then in the next line it shows it solved for
e^(-rt)={(ynot/k)(1-(y/k)}/{(y/k)(1-(ynot/k)}
now i have...
Perhaps this belongs better in the career guidance forum (in which case, please move it moderator) but I thought it would be more specific to this forum.
I'm planning to study physics at the university level sometime in the future. My plan is to work on the first year math credits first, to...
