This sixth edition of Additional Mathematics: Pure and Applied, has been completely revised and updated.
This textbook follows closely the latest syllabus issued by the Ministry of Education, Singapore. It emphasises the understanding of mathematical concepts using a clear and systematic approach.
This collection brings together classic, previously published articles and new research to present the emerging field of ethnomathematics from a critical perspective, challenging particular ways in which Eurocentrism permeates mathematics education. The contributors identify several of the field's broad themes—reconsidering what counts as mathematical knowledge, considering interactions between culture and mathematical knowledge, and uncovering hidden and distorted histories of mathematical knowledge. The book offers a diversity of ethnomathematics perspectives that develop both theoretical and practical issues from various disciplines including mathematics, mathematics education, history, anthropology, cognitive psychology, feminist studies, and African studies written by authors from Brazil, England, Australia, Mozambique, Palestine, Belgium, and the United States.

These resources have been created for the Cambridge IGCSE® and O Level Additional Mathematics syllabuses (0606/4037), for first examination from 2020. This coursebook gives clear explanations of new mathematical concepts followed by exercises. This allows students to practise the skills required and gain the confidence to apply them. Classroom discussion exercises and extra challenge questions have been designed to deepen students' understanding and stimulate interest in Mathematics. Answers to coursebook questions are in the back of the book.
Deep From Within chronicles the life of Alfred Olúsegun Fáyemi from his early years at Ìfàkì Èkiti and Abeokúta Nigeria, through to his ninth decade. He attended Igbobi College, Yábàá and Abeokúta Grammar School, the latter for the Cambridge Higher School Certificate course. He studied Medicine at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School, Jerusalem, Israel and graduated with an MSc (Pathology) and MD degrees. He served as an intern and senior house officer at the University College Hospital, Ibàdàn, Nigeria followed by a Pathology residency at the Mount Sinal Hospital and Medical Center, New York. He is Board certified in Anatomic and Clinical Pathology and he is a Fellow o...
The international New Math developments between about 1950 through 1980, are regarded by many mathematics educators and education historians as the most historically important development in curricula of the twentieth century. It attracted the attention of local and international politicians, of teachers, and of parents, and influenced the teaching and learning of mathematics at all levels—kindergarten to college graduate—in many nations. After garnering much initial support it began to attract criticism. But, as Bill Jacob and the late Jerry Becker show in Chapter 17, some of the effects became entrenched. This volume, edited by Professor Dirk De Bock, of Belgium, provides an outstandin...
This engaging open access book discusses how a values and valuing perspective can facilitate a more effective mathematics pedagogical experience, and allows readers to explore multiple applications of the values perspective across different education systems. It also clearly shows that teaching mathematics involves not only reasoning and feelings, but also students’ interactions with their cultural setting and each other. The book brings together the work of world leaders and new thinkers in mathematics educational research to improve the learning and teaching of mathematics. Addressing themes such as discovering hidden cultural values, a multicultural society and methodological issues in the investigation of values in mathematics, it stimulates readers to consider these topics in cross-cultural ways, and offers suggestions for research and classroom practice. It is a valuable resource for scholars of mathematics education, from early childhood through to higher education and an inspiring read for all mathematics teachers.
