A MATLAB-Aided Method For Teaching Calculus-Based Business Mathematics

Intuition – Based Teaching Mathematics for Engineers

It is suggested to teach Mathematics for engineers based on development of mathematical intuition, thus, combining conceptual and operational approaches. It is proposed to teach main mathematical concepts based on discussion of carefully selected case studies following solving of algorithmically generated problems to help mastering appropriate mathematical tools. The former component helps deve...

A sequent calculus for limit computable mathematics

We prove a kind of Curry-Howard isomorphism, with some set of recursive winning strategies taking the place of typed λ-terms, and some set of classical proofs taking the place of intuitionistic proofs. We introduce an implication-free fragment PA1 of ω-arithmetic, having Exchange rule for sequents dropped. Exchange rule for formulas is, instead, an admissible rule in PA1. Then we show that cut-...

A Framework for Compassion-Based Teaching

To present a framework for compassionate teaching, the views of teachers and students on the topic were sought. These informants were chosen from among their corresponding populations in Tehran, using the snowball and mixed methods. Semi-structured interviews were used to gather the needed data. To analyze the data open coding and descriptive categorization were utilized. Results show that from...

An Interactive MATLAB-Based Tool for Teaching Classical System

This educational research endeavor describes the development of a MATLAB/Windows/C++ PC environment designed to teach fundamental concepts from classical systems and controls. Interactive computer-aided-lessons (ICALs) form the heart of the environment. Upon entering the environment, a master menu is provided from which the user can select a starting ICAL. The user is then led through a sequenc...
