Providing a challenging mathematics education was one of the key reasons we started homeschooling. Deeply disappointed by the depth of the math provided by two schools, my older son, then seven, assumed he was the problem.

Math (and science) were his loves at age 4 and 5 in Montessori and while at home. He was appropriately challenged in the first at school and free to explore the second at home. First grade ended all that, where math became repetition of previously mastered lessons. Second grade, at our local gifted and talented public school, it was nonexistent which was because, we were informed, he knew all the material for that year already.

Thanks for this review. We have used Singapore all the way through, and I do think we will stick with Discovering Mathematics after Singapore 6. My husband is a high school math teacher and speaks highly of what the kids have learned so far.

I started out with Singapore NEM, but thinking of switching to DM. So, I may be able to only use the textbook and workbook alone without having to buy the teaching notes and solution book and the workbook solutions book?

It looks like Discovering Mathematics is now called Dimensions Mathematics, and the series starts with 7A, as it picks up where the elementary series ends. The numbers are supposed to align with grade levels.

Suitable for a one-semester course at the beginning undergraduate level, there are no prerequisites for understanding the text. Any college student interested in discovering the beauty of mathematics will enjoy a course taught from this book. The book has also been used successfully with nonscience students who want to fulfill a science requirement.

Nicely produced and concentrates on the informal analysis of geometrical patterns with the emphasis on informality ... could serve as a useful collection of activities to precede a formal course and would provide a range of intuitive experiences to which the more formal treatment could refer.

On the basis of this book it is possible to tailor a good course for high school students to really discover mathematics ... for anyone who is working with high school students in an advanced level the book is really recommended.

Discovering Mathematics provides problems and examples specifically designed to address critical thinking and analysis skills. Adaptive and interactive examples coach students as they learn, guiding conceptual understanding rather than fostering rote practice.

Using adaptive and interactive learning methods, Steve observed an 18% improvement in student success, from approximately 48% failure rate in previous online courses to approximately only 30% failure rate as of December 2017.

Steve created Discovering Mathematics and wants to share this low-cost mathematics textbook alternative with other instructors. Chapters can be purchased by students on an as-needed basis, at only $8.00 per chapter.

New Discovering Mathematics is a series of textbooks written with a learner-centric approach that builds upon the knowledge and skills learnt in primary school. It is based on the latest O-level Mathematics syllabus implemented from 2020 by the Ministry of Education of Singapore.

The emphasis of this series is on empowering students to learn mathematics independently and effectively. Depending on the topics covered, different approaches are used to present different concepts to facilitate students' understanding.

The point of learning from this book is that you are learning how to discover ideas and methods for yourself, not that you are learning to apply methods that someone else has told you about. The problems in this book are designed to lead you to discover for yourself and prove for yourself the main ideas of combinatorial mathematics. There is considerable evidence that this leads to deeper learning and more understanding.

Can one learn linear algebra solely by solving problems? Paul Halmos thinks so, and you will too once you read this book. The Linear Algebra Problem Book is an ideal text for a course in linear algebra. It takes the student step by step from the basic axioms of a field through the notion of vector spaces, on to advanced concepts such as inner product spaces and normality. All of this occurs by way of a series of 164 problems, each with hints and, at the back of the book, full solutions.

Number Theory Through Inquiry; is an innovative textbook that leads students on a carefully guided discovery of introductory number theory. The book has two equally significant goals. One goal is to help students develop mathematical thinking skills, particularly, theorem-proving skills. The other goal is to help students understand some of the wonderfully rich ideas in the mathematical study of numbers. This book is appropriate for a proof transitions course, for an independent study experience, or for a course designed as an introduction to abstract mathematics.

From the preface: In the hope of making the book fun to read, I have attempted to write as though I were explaining the ideas directly to a friend. Correspondingly, I have tried to make you, the reader, into an active participant in developing the ideas.

While Needham uses the visual senses as additional support to ease reading and enhance understanding, David Bressoud uses time or more precisely the historical development of mathematical ideas as guiding principle.

In A Radical approach to Real Analysis the course does not follow the traditional development, namely starting with a discussion of properties of real numbers, then moving on to continuity, then differentiability and so forth. He instead takes the reader along the often devious chronological pathes of development and forces him this way to think about concepts and so to grasp essential ideas.

From the preface: ... the first part of this book ... starts with infinite series ... illustrating the great successes that led the early pioneers onward, as well as the obstacles that stymied even such luminaries as Euler and Lagrange. There is an intentional emphasis on the mistakes that have been made. These highlight difficult conceptual points. ... The student needs time with them. The highly refined proofs that we know today leave the mistaken impression that the road of discovery in mathematics is straight and sure. It is not. Experimentation and misunderstandng have been essential components in the growth of mathematics.

Combinatorial Problems and Exercises by Laszlo Lovasz is a goodbook to learn advanced Combinatorial Techniques through guideddiscovery. The book is divided into three parts: One consisting ofproblems, the second of hints and the third of solutions. The book is not suitable for a beginner though.

There is the voluminous (835 big format pages) treatise Modern Classical Homotopy Theory (Graduate Studies in Mathematics) by Jeff Strom. It teaches the reader quite a bit of homotopy theory almost exclusively through guided exercises.

One of my favorites is Grimmett and Stirzaker's One Thousand Exercises in Probability, which is what it sounds like.There's a companion book with more of the theory but also plenty of exercises called Probability and Random Processes.

Discovering Mathematics is a series of textbooks written for the students in the secondary schools. This series of books prepares students for the Singapore-Cambridge GCE O-Level Examinations in Elementary Mathematics.

This comprehensive series aims to make the learning of mathematics an easy and exciting experience for students. As they learn, students will understand and internalize mathematical concepts, and be able to apply them in real-life situations.

Welcome to the Wolfson Campus Mathematics Department. We offer a variety of high-quality courses that will help you prepare throughout your academic journey at Miami Dade College.

The enthusiasm of our faculty and staff will help you become confident in your ability to solve problems, and solving problems is the heart of mathematics.

The Mathematics Laboratory offers numerous resources such as computer software, tutors, textbooks, graphing calculators, and video lectures to help you attain the goals of your mathematics course. For additional information visit the Learning Resources main tutoring page for details.

The Bellevue School District in Washington just selected a new high school mathematics textbook series covering Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2. After an initial review, the two top contenders were the Holt series published by Holt-McDougal and the Discovering series from Key Press.
