Teaching mathematics using graphic calculators has been an issue of didactic discussions for years. Finding ways in which graphic calculators can enrich the development process of creative activity in mathematically gifted students between the ages of 16-17 is the focus of this article. Research was conducted using graphic calculators with…

Examples of problems based on the division of property mutually owned or mutually claimed are discussed. (DT)

Presented are more than 300 problems of varying difficulty along with answers and solutions. These problems were initially given to participants in mathematics contests among high school students. With each problem a time factor is included as well as a percentage of participants who successfully solved that problem. (CT)

Seven articles present: 1) a solution to a force equilibrium problem, 2) a magic square, 3) a characteristic of right triangles, 4) a family tree of Pythagorean triples, 5) a misunderstanding which may be cleared through modern mathematics, 6) a technique for solving conversion problems, and 7) a special permatation problem. (RS)

Information about a student-run mathematics tournament is presented. Included are sample test questions created by students. (MP)

The article outlines a series of mathematical tasks for gifted students (aged 7-12 years), stressing the value of research and inservice education that is firmly teacher and classroom based. (Author/DB)

The goals and history of the Mathematical Olympiads for Elementary Schools are described. Teams, levels, and gender are discussed, as well as teacher training, administration, scoring, and awards. Sample problems are included. (MNS)

Possible ways of mechanization for counting using a binary system are discussed. Shows a binary representation of the numbers and geometric models having eight triples of lamps. Provides three problem sets. (YP)

This workbook is designed to be used as a review at the end of a college level course in algebra and trigonometry. Four review sheets containing 117 problems provide hints and detailed solutions for each problem. (YP)

This booklet contains 11 modules (290 multiple-choice items) designed for use in the first course of a three-course calculus sequence using the textbook "Calculus with Analytic Geometry" (Dennis G. Zill). In each module, relevant sections of the textbook are identified for users. It can, however, be used in conjunction with any calculus textbook.…

Aspects of the source of power of mathematics and the ways in which mathematics works are discussed. The author discusses various philosophies about mathematics, presents several unusual "real world" problems, and reviews the social consequences of the "imposition of mathematics" on humanity. (MP)

Presents an example from the combinatorial theory of partially ordered sets. Discusses algorithms of on-line antichain partitioning problems, a topic in discrete optimization. (YP)

Describes investigations of quick cancellation problems in two-digital integers. Generalizes the results to n-digital integer problems. (YP)

This book is a sequel to MATHEMATICAL CHALLENGES, which was published in 1965. In this sequel are 100 problems, together with their printed solutions. The problems range from those that are quite simple to those that will challenge even the most ardent problem solver, and they include examples from algebra, geometry, number theory, probability,…
