This paper is based on the presumption that teaching multiple ways to solve the same problem has academic and social value. In particular, we argue that such a multifaceted approach to pedagogy moves towards an environment of more inclusive and personalized learning. From a mathematics education perspective, our discussion is framed around…

This document is a compilation of abstracts of 28 research papers presented at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. The major portion of the reports concerned methods of instruction; nine were related to college mathematics, ten on secondary school mathematics, and two at the elementary school mathematics…

This document looks at specific applications of calculus to engineering. It is noted that for an automobile traveling at constant speed, the mathematical relationship between the directional heading and the angular deflection of the steering wheel can be calculated with respect to time. An analysis is presented which derives the relationship from…
