A method for introducing ideas of probability theory is presented. The method is illustrated by solving a coin tossing" problem. (FL)

A geometric interpretation is given to the proof of the theorem that states that the symmetry group of a square is not a normal subgroup of the symmetry group of the regular tetrahedron. (MP)

Presents an early and informal report on some research on learning and assessment of university mathematics. Investigates the attitudes of students who were intending to teach mathematics in secondary schools towards their undergraduate mathematical studies. (ASK)

The mathematics involved in a practical application of matrices and vectors to the field of computer graphics where three-dimensional objects are moved and displayed is explained. (DT)

An approach to differentiation is illustrated. (DT)

Six films produced by the College Geometry Project at the University of Minnesota are reviewed; titles of six others are listed. (DT)

One possible way of looking at the limit concept, from the learner's point of view, is proposed; it can easily be built up gradually with little risk of conscious or subconscious conflicts of concepts perceived to be closely related. (MN)

Repeatedly taking the square root with a calculator yields numbers with logarithmic-type properties, which can be used to define the logarithm functions. (MP)

The author suggests that, given as few external constraints as possible, the activities of mathematics with which students involve themselves bear little resemblance to the activities normally demanded of them in mathematics. (MN)
