The subject of this work, teacher’s practice forming mathematical activity and creativity of the gifted pupils, is submerged in the issue of one of the contemporary trends in researching the methodology of teaching maths, which is called: creativity in teaching mathematics – theory, diagnosis and methodology, prospects. In this work I refer to certain synthesis of the knowledge to that point, see...
The lattice sum S_2 for the square array conditionally converges. Having used physical arguments, Rayleigh chose an order of summation in such a way that S_2 = π. The Eisenstein summation method applied to S2 yields the same result. This paper is devoted to a rigorous proof of S_2 = π for the Eisenstein summation method. The study can be used in class for students as an interesting example which illustrates...
The article gives examples of construction tasks of first and second degree on a Euclidean plane, which can be solved with the use of a simple ruler. For this purpose, the theoretical backgrounds of projective geometry have been used. It has been proved that in the projective approach some constructions on a Euclidean plane become linear constructions. In particular, a linear construction of this...
In this paper we present the results of our research carried out among the students of the first, second and third years of mathematical studies in the years 2003-2006. The research was focused on the difficulties these students faced in understanding the fundamental notions of the mathematical analysis such as: a limit, continuity, differentiability and integrability. These special problems, described...
In the article I submit a fragment of my research carried out in 2004-2007, which was connected with the role of mathematical computer programs in the independent extracurricular work of the pupil. These examinations were conducted in a group of 119 pupils from the second grade of secondary schools. The article concerns the specific form of homework in mathematics – a long-term homework. The purpose...
This paper shows the concept of a probability theory course with elements of descriptive statistics for future Mathematics teachers. This course is backed up by electronic materials provided via the Internet. An e-learning platform extends the communication opportunities and offers a wide access to educational materials available there. The contents available on the platform show the presented material...
The paper presents results of research carried out on the two following levels of mathematics education: the high school level and the level of pre-service Mathematics teachers training. The subject of the research was understanding the relations between mathematical theorem and its proof by the study participants.
The present article introduces a didactic proposal of supporting the process of teaching mathematics with blended learning. The authors discuss both benefits and dangers of this idea. Also, the concept of functional method of teaching mathematics is brought closer, as it is naturally inscribed in the concept of blended learning. In the second part of the article, the authors describe the materials...
This paper deals with some studies of understanding the absolute value of real numbers. This article is divided into two parts. The first one contains the conclusions drawn from the analysis of the solutions of the mathematical problems with the absolute value which were solved by the secondary school pupils. The second part of the article contains the didactic proposition of teaching the concept...
