Higgins, Jon – Sch Sci Math, 1970
Presents a problem in standing waves that provides an example of the mathematics used by theoretical physicists to generate predictions of new phenomena from fundamental background knowledge. Mathematical analysis required to solve problem is accomplished by simple graphical processes. (BR)

Dahmus, Maurice E. – Sch Sci Math, 1970
Presents a technique for teaching the lower ninety percent in mathematics. Concentrates on converting English statements, both expressed and implied, into one or many mathematical statements. Emphasis on translating in a direct, piecemeal, pure, and complete manner (DPPC). This method differs from others in that it is concrete rather than…

Pribnow, Jack R. – Sch Sci Math, 1969
The reason for the inability of students to master the solving of word problems in algebra is identified as the failure to organize and analyse the problems. The author's approach to the solution of these problems, involving writing symbols for the unknown(s), generating equations, solving the unknown(s) and interpretation is presented through…
