CATALOGUE: Recommended Packages and
Curriculae
College Mathematics
High School Mathematics
High School Computer Science
First Edition TechBooks are
written in a workbook style for students' ease of use. These
TechBooks
include questions only. The questions are word problems that are
exploratory in nature and often require the use of technology - hence
the name "TechBook."
The High School PreCalculus
TechBook includes many Assignment
Sheets to help you pace your class as well as many Quizzes, PreTests
and Tests. The High School Calculus TechBooks include Assignment
Sheets, PreTests and Tests. The assignment sheets include Daily
Topics and HomeWork for 2-4 weeks of material for a suggested
textbook. If you use a different textbook, you can still use my
assignment sheets as a guide.
The High School editions also have a challenging TakeHome exam given at the end of each Quarter. These are meant as extensions to traditional classwork and are to be completed in groups. I usually give these exams one week before a "big" vacation and collect them a week after that. "Big" vacations include Holloween, XMas Break, Winter Break and Easter Break.
The College
TechBooks include one Syllabus and five Unit Tests each.
The BASIC
TechBook includes Daily Programming WorkSheets.
Edition 2.0:
No Second Edition TechBooks are
available as yet. These will include Solutions to all the
questions in the First Editions. For Mathematics, these Solutions
will emphasize the Rule of Four where we GNAW at each problem
(Graphical, Numerical, Analytical and Wordy or Verbal).
Edition 3.0:
Only
the BASIC Third Edition TechBooks is available as yet. The BASIC
TechBook includes a Weekly Lesson along with the Daily Programming
WorkSheets. However, most Third Edition TechBooks will include
Daily Lesson Plans following the Assignment Sheets in the First
Editions.
Background Information:
These materials have been
developed for
instructional purposes only.
The
Calculus WorkBooks and ReviewBooks are no longer available as the
College Board website now provide similar publications.
I refer to each of the Semester or
Quarter books above as a TechBook. A TechBook is a set of
instructional materials on a given topic that will enphasize not only
mathematics or computer science, but the use of technology as
well. Each TechBook uses 12pt font for easy reading and leaves
plenty of room for students to show work. Your order will be sent
to you Xeroxed, double-sided and stapled on three-holed paper for you
to store in a 3-ring binder upon receipt. These New TechBooks
were written over a
period of
several years for use with my students. I have found
them of benefit to my students and have had many requests from teachers
for
these materials at conferences I have attended and workshops I have
presented, hence this website.
CALCPAGE, therefore, is meant as a
service
to help the global community of the Teachers and Professors of
Mathematics and Computer Science. This
includes current
teachers as well as prospective teachers new to the discipline. Also,
if you
find yourself isolated from the Math and CompSci community, or there
are no workshops or conventions nearby, or your school is in a remote
part of the world,
then CALCPAGE is the web-site for you!
I hope you
can put my materials to good use. Good luck to you
and your
students!
