Even though college algebra is considered to be an obstacle for many students in terms of degree completion‚ as teachers we must teach useful strategies to motivate our students to find interest in mathematics. Recently‚ there is a psychological problem that we as teachers will face in the future‚ which is that some students believe they were born incompetent in math. However‚ “effort is key to their success and failure is a result of a lack of effort” (Cortes-Suarez‚ 2004). As teachers‚ we must

Unlike geometry‚ algebra was not developed in Europe. Algebra was actually discovered (or developed) in the Arab countries along side geometry. Many mathematicians worked and developed the system of math to be known as the algebra of today. European countries did not obtain information on algebra until relatively later years of the 12th century. After algebra was discovered in Europe‚ mathematicians put the information to use in very remarkable ways. Also‚ algebraic and geometric ways of thinking

I. INTRDUCTION This research entitled‚ “A study on The Most Difficult Topic a Computer Science Student Encounters”‚ was made in partial fulfillment of the requirements in Operations Research I. Guided by my Professor‚ Mrs. Realinixa Krishnan‚ I am trying to cite the topic which most Computer Science Student perceive as the most difficult in order for me to show computer educators which topics to focus and give more time to. Because of the fact that every year level receives different amounts of

Introduction to College Algebra November 9‚ 2009 2 Chapter 1 Sets Definition 1.1. A set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects. Each object in a set is called an element of the set. By “well-defined”‚ we mean that the rule of membership to the set is clear. Example 1.2. The following are examples of sets. 1. The set of counting number less than 5. 2. The set of vowels in the word “mathematics”. 3. The set of cities in the Philippines. 4. The set of positive integers from −2 to

Chapter I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Computer programming is the process of designing‚ writing‚ testing‚ debugging‚ and maintaining the source code of computer programs. This source code is written in one or more programming languages. The purpose of programming is to create a set of instructions that computers use to perform specific operations or to exhibit desired behaviors. The process of writing source code often requires expertise in many different subjects‚ including knowledge
