Humanize Your Classroom with the History of Mathematics
Autor: James K. Bidwell
Publikováno v: The Mathematics Teacher. 86:461-464
In classrooms, we often treat mathematics as if we were learning on an island. We travel to that island once a day for mathematics and delve into a study that is pure, clean, and logically solid and has clear lines and no dirty corners. Students thin

Archimedes and Pi - Revisited
Autor: James K. Bidwell
Publikováno v: School Science and Mathematics. 94:127-129
Archimedes of Syracuse (287-212 B.C.) created the first known recursion process for estimating the value of π. The “classical method” of Archimedes is developed and programs for the TI-81 calculator are given for finding the upper and lower boun

Polynomial Prime Producers: A Computer Problem for Secondary Students
Autor: Ann Fallon, James K. Bidwell
Publikováno v: The Mathematics Teacher. 68:108-111
An unsolved problem in mathematics is the existence of a formula (function) that produces nothing but prime numbers. Many mathematicians have thought that they had discovered such a function, only to have composite numbers eventually pop up for some

Using Reflections to Find Symmetric and Asymmetric Patterns
Autor: James K. Bidwell
Publikováno v: The Arithmetic Teacher. 34:10-15
The concept of line symmetry is usually introduced in the elementary school by folding shapes, using mirrors, or drawing lines on a picture. Good follow-up activities are needed to give the student enough time to explore this concept of symmetry adeq
