Algebra for All: California's Eighth-Grade Algebra Initiative as Constrained Curricula.

BACKGROUND/CONTEXT Across the United States, secondary school curricula are intensifying as a growing proportion of students enroll in high-level academic math courses. In many districts, this intensification process occurs as early as eighth grade, where schools are effectively constraining their mathematics curricula by restricting course offerings and placing more students into Algebra I. Th...

EXPLORE Test and Ninth Grade Success in English 9 and Algebra I as related to End-of- Course Exams and Final Averages in a Rural East Tennessee High School

The purpose of this study was to compare scores students received on the eighth grade EXPLORE test in math and English to scores received in English 9 and Algebra I on both the End-of-Course (EOC) test and the final average in those courses. These scores were taken from a rural East Tennessee High School and the middle schools that feed into the high school. Data were collected over a 2-year pe...

Some notes on the existence of an inequality in Banach algebra

We shall prove an existence inequality for two maps on Banach algebra, withan example and in sequel we have some results on R and Rn spaces. This waycan be applied for generalization of some subjects of mathematics in teachingwhich how we can extend a math problem to higher level.

Elementary Math Models: College Algebra Topics and a Liberal Arts Approach

It would be difficult to overstate the importance of algebra in mathematics. If mathematics is the language of science, then algebra provides the alphabet, vocabulary, and syntax. In particular, the traditional college algebra course covers the elementary functions of analysis: linear and quadratic functions; polynomials and rational functions; roots, exponentials, and logs. These functions are...
