- Tài liệuDiscrete Math with SageMath: Learn math with open-source software(2025) Ahmed, Zunaid; Colman, Hellen; Lubliner, SamuelOur book is intended to provide concise and complete instructions on how to use Sage to solve problems in Discrete Math. It is appropriate for a first or second year undergraduate course for math and computer science majors. Our goal is to streamline the learning process with SageMath. This approach helps students focus more on mathematics and reduces the friction of learning how to code. Our resources are designed for all math students, regardless of programming experience. The novelty of our project is that the textbook is authored by students under faculty supervision. With Open Pedagogy as a guiding praxis, we present this student-created textbook as a more effective alternative in promoting student learning and engagement. Students present the contents in new and inventive ways, from the overall voice of the textbook to the actual examples drawn from their and their peers' lives. The text began as a support textbook for our undergraduate Discrete Math course developed at Wright College, one of the City Colleges of Chicago. Despite the fabulous capabilities of SageMath, students in Discrete Math were often frustrated by the lack of specific documentation geared towards beginning undergrad students in Discrete Math. We developed an OER for our students to use this mathematical software effectively.
- Tài liệuContemporary Mathematics(OpenStax, 2023) Kirk, DonnaContemporary Mathematics is designed to meet the scope and sequence requirements for a liberal arts mathematics course. This resource provides stand-alone sections with a focus on showing relevance in the features as well as the examples, exercises, and exposition. Contemporary Mathematics integrates technology applications, projects, and highlights a diverse group of contributors to mathematics, statistics, and related fields.
- Tài liệuMathematics for Biomedical Physics(Wayne State University Library System, 2022) Wadehra, Jogindra M.Mathematics for Biomedical Physics is an open access peer-reviewed textbook geared to introduce several mathematical topics at the rudimentary level so that students can appreciate the applications of mathematics to the interdisciplinary field of biomedical physics. Most of the topics are presented in their simplest but rigorous form so that students can easily understand the advanced form of these topics when the need arises. Several end-of-chapter problems and chapter examples relate the applications of mathematics to biomedical physics. After mastering the topics of this book, students would be ready to embark on quantitative thinking in various topics of biology and medicine
- Tài liệuTechnical Mathematics - 2nd Edition(Open Oregon Educational Resources, 2024) Chase, MorganThis developmental-level mathematics textbook is intended for career-technical students. It is FREE online and costs $17.35 in print plus shipping; don't get tricked into paying for access! The approach is conversational—inviting rather than intimidating—and many of the examples are drawn from everyday life rather than from the technical trades.
- Tài liệuTransition to Higher Mathematics: Structure and Proof - Second Edition(Open Scholarship, 2015) Dumas, Bob A.; McCarthy, John E.This book is written for students who have taken calculus and want to learn what “real mathematics" is. We hope you will find the material engaging and interesting, and that you will be encouraged to learn more advanced mathematics. This is the second edition of our text. It is intended for students who have taken a calculus course, and are interested in learning what higher mathematics is all about. It can be used as a textbook for an "Introduction to Proofs" course, or for self-study. Chapter 1: Preliminaries, Chapter 2: Relations, Chapter 3: Proofs, Chapter 4: Principles of Induction, Chapter 5: Limits, Chapter 6: Cardinality, Chapter 7: Divisibility, Chapter 8: The Real Numbers, Chapter 9: Complex Numbers. The last 4 chapters can also be used as independent introductions to four topics in mathematics: Cardinality; Divisibility; Real Numbers; Complex Numbers.
