These days computers are a common part of our daily life. Success of each person in this global information age is measured by their ability to obtain, analyze and use information. Schools, as integral part of the global information system, should reflect the current needs for information exchange.
In the contribution I am presenting a new English-Czech-English mathematical dictionary, which was prepared for university students in the Czech Republic, in the form of an on-line application with unrestricted access.
This paper contains some results of diagnostic research on the difficulties that students who begin studies at the tertiary level encounter when doing proofs from a section devoted to applying definitions in proofs. The considerations concern the issues connected with understanding of the role of definition and understanding of the texts of definitions by students. In these considerations the examples...
This report is about mathematics and engineering innovations inspired by the nature, in particular, about the optical devices and imaging technologies inspired by eyes of living organisms. Instead of reviewing existing mathematical methods, the author explains visual sensors in nature and also the corresponding engineering devices for further inspiration of mathematicians. Contents: Introduction....
Profesor Tadeusz Świątkowski był wieloletnim pracownikiem i dyrektorem Instytutu Matematyki Politechniki Łódzkiej. Prezentujemy jego sylwetkę jako wielkiego matematyka i wspaniałego nauczyciela oraz jego wkład w rozwój teorii funkcji rzeczywistych.
“I am just not a math person” is a sentence we can hear very often these days. Students use it as an excuse any-time they do not know or understand anything. But is Maths really some gift a person gets or is not? Or is it more like ability which can be improved if practised enough? This is a brief preview of what do the Czech, Slovak and also foreign authors think of this issue.
