Math in the Movies. xNYED - April 28, 2012 - Patrick Honner. Applying mathematics (Times Article) One of the questions every mathematics teacher is regularly asked is “When are we ever going to use these things?” This is probably the hardest question to answer in a satisfactory manner! We talk about the applications of mathematics in physics, engineering and computer science. It is today becoming more important for students to attain a higher level of numerical literacy - Christina Zarb Since I deal with many IT students, my favourite answer is “Google!
Of course we can, many should be thinking. Mathematics is a compulsory subject throughout primary and secondary education – it is considered, and rightly so, a core subject throughout these highly important formation years, and a pass at Ordinary level is fundamental in order to continue one’s studies at post-secondary and tertiary level. After secondary school, students have to choose which combination of Advanced and Intermediate level subjects to pursue, keeping in mind the University degree they would like to read for. 8000+ Mathematics, Physics, and Engineering Applets. Applets are very useful in mathematical explorations, so I made list of more than 8000 applets from 10 different websites and blogs below. I hope you’ll find them helpful. Analyze Math.

Some background Four years ago I created Google Earth resources for the classroom and posted them to the GE Community Forum. The only issue with Google Earth is that it is restrictive in two ways. Facebook in Math Class. Using Social Networking In During the first term, in the 2010-2011 school year, I created a Facebook group called “Notre Dame Math Discussion”. As of March 2011, there are 102 students in my Facebook group. In the semester I implemented Facebook, I had a total of 113 students. I implemented Facebook, mostly, to my Math 20 Pure classes which totaled 92 students. During the semester, I assigned specific questions that needed to be answered using the math discussion group. These tasks were given weekly, but in some weeks we used it multiple times. Each student was given a slip of paper with different function notations on it.
Another example from my Math 31 class: As a class we graphed 3 functions from their equations. These tasks were not required to be completed on Facebook; I did still allow for students to complete these tasks the “traditional” way, on paper and hand it in to me in class. Students used this site above and beyond expectations. ME: Hey KKKKK. ME: Recalculate intersect.
