• Introduction to Abstract Algebra with Notes to the Future Teacher

    For courses in Abstract Algebra.

    Designed for future mathematics teachers as well as mathematics students who are not planning careers in secondary education, this text offers a traditional course in abstract algebra along with optional notes that connect its mathematical content to school mathematics. Elementary number theory and rings of polynomials are treated before group theory.  Prerequisites include some experience with proof.  (A brief appendix reviews certain basics of logic, proof, set theory, and functions.) Students should also have access to a Computer Algebra System (CAS), or a calculator with CAS capabilities

    Features

    • To the Teacher sections:

    –       Draw connections from the number theory or abstract algebra under consideration to secondary mathematics

    –       Help students make appropriate connections between the advanced mathematics they are learning and the secondary mathematics they may be teaching,

    • In the Classroom sections addressing classroom concerns in each chapter – Optional for the non-teacher.

    • From the Past sections in each chapter – Provide historical context; students experience historical thinking and technique.

    • Worksheets that outlines the framework of a topic in most chapters:

    –       Asks students to provide the details and exposition.

    –       Worksheets are suitable for group work and for development as student presentations in a capstone experience.

    • Examples in the text drawn from linear algebra – Can be omitted for students without that background.

  • Kwadwoan Mathematics for Basic 3

    Kwadwoan Mathematics for Basic 3 solidifies the foundation of Mathematics built by the previous books. Through its easy-to-follow and effective learning strategies, mathematical concepts that were otherwise cumbersome and unexciting are treated with so much simplicity to make any learner appreciate the ease of learning Mathematics.

    Each lesson is accompanied with numerous activities, which expand and strengthens understanding of fundamental concepts.

  • Kwadwoan Mathematics for Basic 2

    Second in the series, this book reinforces lessons learnt in Basic 1. Each lesson is accompanied with numerous activities, which expand and strengthens understanding of fundamental concepts.

    Written by experienced Maths educators, it is no wonder that the book’s approach meets the requirements of the National Council for Curriculum Assessment (NaCCA).

  • Kwadwoan Mathematics for Basic 1

    First of the three books in the Mathematics series for basic schools, this book has been designed to make the learning of Mathematics very interactive and practical.

    Other features such as the provision of appropriate questions and answers help stir learners’ problem-solving abilities. Written by experienced Maths educators, it is no wonder that the book’s approach meets the requirements of the National Council for Curriculum Assessment (NaCCA).

  • Adwinsa: Mathematics for Basic Schools Learner’s Book 3

    This textbook has been designed with the aim of developing in learners the competencies in achieving key learning outcomes. It is to assist the learner in the study of the subject.

    It is noteworthy that the structure of the textbook follows the new curriculum which is a standard-based one.

    Facilitators are encouraged to use the textbook to facilitate learning in the classroom. They must teach using hands-on and minds-on approaches which learners will find as fun.

    The textbook in achieving the aim of the curriculum is intended to develop learners to be literate, good problem solvers with the ability to think creatively and have both the confidence and competencies to participate fully in both the Ghanaian and global society.

    Much effort was made to ensure that the appropriate psychological principles that would enhance effective learning were considered in the selection and writing of the materials.

    It is our hope that the product of this effort, that is the textbook, would meet the needs of both facilitators and learners and to help them to translate classroom interactions into effective learning.
