Book Description
A major aspect of mathematical training and its benefit to society is the ability to use logic to solve problems. The American Mathematics Competitions have been given for more than fifty years to millions of students. This book considers the basic ideas behind the solutions to the majority of these problems, and presents examples and exercises from past exams to illustrate the concepts. Anyone preparing for the Mathematical Olympiads will find many useful ideas here, but people generally interested in logical problem solving should also find the problems and their solutions stimulating. The book can be used either for self-study or as topic-oriented material and samples of problems for practice exams. Useful reading for anyone who enjoys solving mathematical problems, and equally valuable for educators or parents who have children with mathematical interest and ability.

Book Description
Computer Graphics - First Mathematical Steps will help students to master basic Computer Graphics and the mathematical concepts which underlie this subject. They will be led to develop their own skills, and appreciate Computer Graphics techniques in both two and three dimensions. The presentation of the text is methodical, systematic and gently paced - everything translates into numbers and simple ideas. Sometimes students experience difficulty in understanding some of the mathematics in standard Computer Graphics books; this book can serve as a good introduction to more advanced texts. It starts from first principles and is sympathetically written for those with a limited mathematical background. Computer Graphics - First Mathematical Steps is suitable for supporting undergraduate programmes in Computers and also the newer areas of Computer Graphics and Visualization. It is appropriate for post-graduate conversion courses which develop expertise in Computer Graphics and CAD. It can also be used for enrichment topics for high-flying pre-college students, and for refresher/enhancement courses for computer graphics technicians.

Book Description
How do you approach a math problem that challenges you? Do you keep trying until you reach a solution? Or are you like Amy, who gets frustrated easily and gives up? Amy is usually a happy and enthusiastic student in grade five who loves to dance, but she is struggling with a tough math assignment. She doesn’t think she is good at math because her classmates always get the answers faster than she does and sometimes she uses her fingers to help her count. Even though her mom tries to help her, Amy is convinced she just cannot do math. She decides not to do the assignment at all since she thinks she wouldn’t do well anyway. As Amy goes about her day, her experiences at ballet class, the playground, and gym class have her thinking back to how she gave up on her math assignment. She starts to notice that hard-work, practice, and dedication lead to success, thanks to her friends and teachers. She soon comes to understand that learning math is no different than learning any other skill in life. With some extra encouragement from her math teacher, a little help from her mom, and a new attitude, Amy realizes that she can do math!

Book Description
"Kids love to move. But how do we harness all that kinetic energy effectively for math learning? In Math on the Move, Malke Rosenfeld shows how pairing math concepts and whole body movement creates opportunities for students to make sense of math in entirely new ways. Malke shares her experience creating dynamic learning environments by: exploring the use of the body as a thinking tool, highlighting mathematical ideas that are usefully explored with a moving body, providing a range of entry points for learning to facilitate a moving math classroom. ..."--Publisher description.
