Picard, Anthony J. – Mathematics Teacher, 1971
Descriptors: Congruence, Geometry, Graphs, Mathematical Concepts

Zaslavsky, Claudia – Math Teacher, 1970
Discusses the traditional number systems and the origin of the number names used by several African peoples living south of the Sahara. Also included are limitations in African mathematical development, and possible topics for research. (RP)
Descriptors: African Culture, African History, Arithmetic, Fundamental Concepts

Lowey, Brian – Science Activities, 1978
Describes how the Phi number and the Fibonacci numbers are generated. Some activities to examine the existence of the Fibonacci series in nature and music are also presented. (HM)
Descriptors: Elementary Secondary Education, Instruction, Mathematical Applications, Mathematics Education

Corbett, Greville G.; Mithun, Marianne – Journal of Linguistics, 1996
This article discusses how constructing a typology of number systems is complicated by the existence of associative forms and why this problem arises. Data from Central Pomo and Central Alaskan Yupik demonstrate how this problem can be resolved. (18 references) (Author/CK)

Kelly, Peter – Mathematics Teaching, 2002
Evaluates the National Numeracy Strategy (NNS) as a successful framework for promoting confidence and competence with numbers and measures, an understanding of the number system, a repertoire of computational skills, and the ability to solve number problems in a variety of school contexts. Suggests taking steps to change children's mathematical…

McNeill, Sheila A. – Mathematics Teacher, 2001
Discusses multiple symbols for zero and the long-count system which were used by the Maya. (KHR)
Descriptors: Cross Cultural Studies, Instructional Materials, Mathematics History, Mathematics Instruction

Melrose, Jean; Rowe, Susan – Mathematics in School, 1989
Describes number strips, arrow diagrams, and grids for number operations. Provides diagrams for the activity materials. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Educational Games, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics

Olson, Melfried; Olson, Judith – School Science and Mathematics, 1988
Describes a pattern which emerged from an examination of the digits of the squares of numbers. Provides eight examples having the pattern at the units or tens digit of the number. (YP)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Arithmetic, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics

Haigh, Gordon – Mathematics in School, 1990
Discusses a number series made from the multiplication of numbers to digits. Presents a number series for diverse multiplication numbers. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Computation, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics

Robold, Alice I. – School Science and Mathematics, 1989
Discusses figurate number learning activities using patterns and manipulative models. Provides examples of square numbers, triangular numbers, pentagonal numbers, hexagonal numbers, and oblong numbers. (YP)
Descriptors: Mathematical Applications, Mathematics, Mathematics Instruction, Mathematics Materials

Wood, Eric – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1988
Why a computer error occurred is considered by analyzing the binary system and decimal fractions. How the computer stores numbers is then described. Knowledge of the mathematics behind computer operation is important if one wishes to understand and have confidence in the results of computer calculations. (MNS)
Descriptors: College Mathematics, Computer Software, Decimal Fractions, Error Patterns
Hierarchical Classes Models for Three-Way Three-Mode Binary Data: Interrelations and Model Selection
Ceulemans, Eva; Van Mechelen, Iven – Psychometrika, 2005
Several hierarchical classes models can be considered for the modeling of three-way three-mode binary data, including the INDCLAS model (Leenen, Van Mechelen, De Boeck, and Rosenberg, 1999), the Tucker3-HICLAS model (Ceulemans,VanMechelen, and Leenen, 2003), the Tucker2-HICLAS model (Ceulemans and Van Mechelen, 2004), and the Tucker1-HICLAS model…

Gurganus, Susan – Intervention in School and Clinic, 2004
"Number sense" is "an intuition about numbers that is drawn from all varied meanings of number" (NCTM, 1989, p. 39). Students with number sense understand that numbers are representative of objects, magnitudes, relationships, and other attributes; that numbers can be operated on, compared, and used for communication. It is fundamental knowledge…

Hopkins, Theresa M.; Cady, Jo Ann – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2007
This article reports on the use of a unique number system to facilitate teachers' understanding of the concepts of place value. Teachers' mastery of base-ten may hinder their recognition of the difficulties students have with place value, so the authors created a number system that used five symbols to represent values. Using this system, teachers…
