The class MUST be taught by a teacher with 7-12 mathematics certification. In addition, the teacher should have either ESL certification or have participate in Quality Teaching for English Learner (QTEL) professional development. The course is designed for newcomer high school students who either have limited and/or interrupted formal schooling or will benefit from a mathematics course to prepare them for Algebra I. In addition to learning and/or reviewing mathematical concepts and skills, students will expand their knowledge of the English academic language of mathematics. An assessment is at the end of this document to determine if students should be rostered in the course. Goals for the course Goals of the course include (1) building on students’ “funds of knowledge” / prior knowledge and experiences in mathematics, (2) engaging students in meaningful mathematical language practices (reading, writing, speaking, listening) with appropriate scaffolds, (3) learning in context the disciplinary vocabulary of mathematics, (4) supporting students’ understanding, application and appreciation of mathematical concepts and skills, and (5) preparing students for advanced high school mathematics courses. Google File / Sharing resources If you would like to receive or share resources related to the course, please contact Donna Sharer, [email protected]. I will add your name to the Google file share. When working with English Learners: 1. Focus on students’ mathematical reasoning, not accuracy in using language. 2. Focus on ALL students participating in mathematical discussions on important mathematical concepts and reasoning rather than pronunciation, vocabulary or low-level linguistic skills. 3. Recognize and support students to engage with the complexity of language in math classrooms. Student learn content

  • Appendix I: on the Early History of Pi
    Appendix I: On the Early History of Pi Our earliest source on 7r is a problem from the Rhind mathematical papyrus, one of the few major sources we have for the mathematics of ancient Egypt. Although the material on the papyrus in its present form comes from about 1550 B.C. during the Middle Kingdom, scholars believe that the mathematics of the document originated in the Old Kingdom, which would date it perhaps to 1900 B.C. The Egyptian source does not state an explicit value for 7r, but tells, instead, how to compute the area of a circle as the square of eight-ninths of the diameter. (One is reminded of the 'classical' problem of squaring the circle.) Quite different is the passage in I Kings 7, 23 (repeated in II Chronicles 4, 21), which clearly implies that one should multiply the diameter of a circle by 3 to find its circumference. It is worth noting, however, that the Egyptian and the Biblical texts talk about what are, a priori, different concepts: the diameter being regarded as known in both cases, the first text gives a factor used to produce the area of the circle and the other gives (by implication) a factor used to produce the circumference.1 Also from the early second millenium are Babylonian texts from Susa. In the mathematical cuneiform texts the standard factor for multiplying the diameter to produce the circumference is 3, but, according to some interpre­ tations, the Susa texts give a value of 31.2 Another source of ancient values of 7r is the class of Indian works known as the Sulba Sfitras, of which the four most important, and oldest are Baudhayana, .Apastamba, Katyayana and Manava (resp.

  • Annexures-Manchester
    Annexure 1. (a) Manchester news release of 13 Aug 2007 and (b) some derived news reports. News item (The University of Manchester) Page 1 of 3 You are here: Home > About Us > News > News item Indians predated Newton 'discovery' by 250 years 13 Aug 2007 A little known school of scholars in southwest India discovered one of the founding principles of modern mathematics hundreds of years before Newton according to new research. Dr George Gheverghese Joseph from The University of Manchester says the 'Kerala School' identified the 'infinite series'- one of the basic components of calculus - in about 1350. The discovery is currently - and wrongly - attributed in books to Sir Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibnitz at the end of the seventeenth centuries. The team from the Universities of Manchester and Exeter reveal the Kerala School also discovered what amounted to the Pi series and used it to calculate Pi correct to 9, 10 and later 17 decimal places. And there is strong circumstantial evidence that the Indians passed on their discoveries to mathematically knowledgeable Jesuit missionaries who visited India during the fifteenth century. That knowledge, they argue, may have eventually been passed on to Newton himself. Dr Joseph made the revelations while trawling through obscure Indian papers for a yet to be published third edition of his best selling book 'The Crest of the Peacock: the Non- European Roots of Mathematics' by Princeton University Press. He said: "The beginnings of modern maths is usually seen as a European achievement but the discoveries in medieval India between the fourteenth and sixteenth centuries have been ignored or forgotten.

  • The Genealogy of Johann Theodor Peters's Great Mathematical Tables
    The genealogy of Johann Theodor Peters’s great mathematical tables Denis Roegel 29 August 2016 (last version: 4 May 2017) Abstract Johann Theodor (Jean) Peters (1869–1941) is the author of numer- ous mathematical tables, in particular the well-known 8-place tables of logarithms coauthored with Julius Bauschinger and published in 1910–1911. This article reviews Peters’s main tables, and presents their genealogy, in order to supplement Peters’s tables and their re- constructions. In 2016, we published reconstructions of almost all of the large mathe- matical tables authored by Johann Theodor Peters (1869–1941), after hav- ing earlier already reconstructed a table of factors coauthored by Peters [60]. This represents a total of 22 volumes for which we have each time written an introduction and tried to analyze as best as we could the methods employed by Peters. Working on all these tables, or even on only some of them, may give rise to some confusion and numbness, as one becomes easily drowned by the various tables, sometimes with almost identical titles. And yet, all these tables are actually different. The purpose of this article is to sort all these tables out and to give a global picture. It does also serve as a general introduction to all the tables which have been reconstructed. 1 A brief biography Peters was born Johann Theodor Peters in Köln in 1869 [33, 26, 32, 31, 30], but throughout his life he was mostly known as “Jean Peters.” He studied mathematics and astronomy at the University of Bonn. He became interested 1 Figure 1: From left to right, the astronomer Karl Heinrich Willy Kruse (1889–1945), Leslie John Comrie (1893–1950) and Peters, 1930.

Numerical tables were one of the most commonly used instru- ments of calculation from the earliest periods for which we have evidence of mathematical activity until the appearance of computing machines. Such tables (including graphical tables) are interesting both as tools of calcula- tion and insofar as traces for certain social and scientific activities of the practitioners by, and for, whom they were produced.

Maarten Bullynck From exploration to theory-driven tables (and back again). A History of Tables in Number Theory. Springer 2 0.1 Beginnings, transmissions and transformations There are a number of traditions in which integers and their problems are featured and that are known to have nourished and stimulated the body of knowledge that would become number theory.1 Some of these traditions harbor a number of methods, some lists of facts and even theoretical constructs, but it is often hard to identify unambiguously a coherent and systematic body of knowledge that is recognized as such. There exists such a body in the Arabic tradition in the 10th-13th centuries, in Pierre de Fermat's time in the 17th century, and of course there is `number theory' as a mathematical discipline with proper textbooks and institutional embedding in the beginning of the 19th century.

E. Salzer, 1989 [66] 1 The Mathematical Tables Project The present table was published by the Mathematical Tables Project, a project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA, renamed Works Projects Administration), a New Deal agency established by President Roosevelt to alleviate unemployment through public works. The purpose of the Mathematical Tables Project was to compute tables of higher mathematical functions. Because the Mathematical Tables Project was part of the WPA, much of the computation was done by hand. This project was in operation since January 1938 and its administrative director was Arnold Lowan.1 The mathematical leader of the Project was Gertrude Blanch2 [74, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 28]. Prior to the Mathematical Tables Project, the British association for the advancement of science had started publishing volumes of tables in 1931. Between 1931 and 1946, 11 volumes were published, and a final one in 1952 [20], [33, p.
