Produktinformationen zu „Math Made Visual “
The object of this book is to show how visualization techniques may be employed to produce pictures that have interest for the creation, communication and teaching of mathematics. The first part of the book consists of twenty short chapters, each one describing a method to visualize some mathematical idea and several applications to concrete cases. Following this the book examines general pedagogical considerations concerning the development of visual thinking, practical approaches for making visualizations in the classroom and a discussion of the role that hands-on material plays in this process.
