Engage students with ready-to-use, motivating math activities that apply to the real world. Students will see how math is used in professions like meteorology, medicine, food preparation, zoology, and personal fitness.

Build and reinforce essential math skills with dozens of activity pages that feature striking designs based on motifs from cultures around the world. First students solve math problems and then follow a key to color the designs. Includes multiplication, division (with and without remainders), fractions, decimals, place value, bonus brain-teaser questions, and more. A motivating way for students to get the practice they need. For use with Grades 4-6.

Biology undergraduates, medical students and life-science graduate students often have limited mathematical skills. Similarly, physics, math and engineering students have little patience for the detailed facts that make up much of biological knowledge. Teaching computational neuroscience as an integrated discipline requires that both groups be brought forward onto common ground. This book does this by making ancillary material available in an appendix and providing basic explanations without becoming bogged down in unnecessary details. The book will be suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students taking a computational neuroscience course and also to anyone with an interest in the uses of the computer in modeling the nervous system.

Most SAT preparation books on the market offer a review of arithmetic algebra and geometry and include general strategies with practice exams. Unlike these traditional study guides, this book is a supplement with 34 specific shortcuts and strategies for the mathematics portion of SAT and PSAT college entrance exams. Fractions, quantitative comparisons, square roots, algebraic expressions, and geometric concepts are just a few of the topics that are covered. Each shortcut is described in a step-by-step method and examples are provided. A concise summary of formulas and concepts along with a glossary of terms is also included. Students who need an extra edge on the mathematical portion of these tests will benefit from the specific strategies in this book.

Focuses education and training on the technical skills and the correlated communication, math, and science knowledge needed to enter the changing workforce. Volume 2 covers: Engine Repair Heating & Air Conditioning Automatic Transmission & Transaxle Manual Drive Trian & Axles
