With an emphasis on techniques, this volume focuses on the applications of basic mathematics and differential and integral calculus in the field of business, economics and the life and social sciences. All mathematical theorems, proofs and concepts are described intuitively and then mathematically. Reorganized and rewritten material includes chapters on exponentials and logarithms, curve sketching and optimization, application sections of straight lines and quadratic inequalities. A new section on difference equations and expanded coverage of differential equations is included.

MATEMAX is a bilingual schoolbook of mathematical problems written with the premise that one of the fundamental ways of learning mathematics, in addition to being one of the goals of the subject, is to solve problems. The book is designed for children and young teens and aims to teach mathematics in an entertaining way. Problems are based on familiar everyday situations, and helpful hints guide students to develop strategies before diving into calculations, leading to practice in abstract thinking, an essential feature of mathematics. Presented in both English and Spanish it also provides equal access to students, parents and teachers with facility in either or both languages. An online supplement is available upon request at [email protected]. This companion book provides complete solutions, alternative methods and additional suggestions to complement the short answers contained in the book. In addition, while problems are arranged in the book as they appear naturally in life, the companion text connects the mathematical tools with standard curricula. Here is a sampling of those pages.

Los problemas se basan en situaciones cotidianas familiares, y sugerencias útiles guían a los estudiantes para desarrollar estrategias antes de sumergirse en los cálculos, lo que lleva a la práctica del pensamiento abstracto, una característica esencial de la matemática. Presentado tanto en inglés como en español, también proporciona un acceso igual a estudiantes, padres y maestros con facilidad en uno o ambos idiomas. Un suplemento en línea está disponible a pedido en [email protected]. Este libro acompañante proporciona soluciones completas, métodos alternativos y sugerencias adicionales para complementar las respuestas cortas contenidas en el libro. Además, mientras que los problemas están ubicados en el libro como aparecen naturalmente en la vida, el texto complementario conecta las herramientas matemáticas con los planes de estudio estándar. Aquí hay una muestra de esas páginas.

The digital revolution that we have experienced since the last quarter of the twentieth century has had some influence, yet to be analysed and extended, on the way mathematics is made, taught and learned. While the rate of innovation in these technologies is growing exponentially, the potential impact of most information technologies on mathematical education remains to be fully exploited. In particular, several authoritative voices point out that the technology that will most likely transform education in the coming years is artificial intelligence (AI). Interestingly, today AI is mainly associated with technologies to automate tasks and lower costs, thus serving primarily the interests of the political-administrative, industrial and commercial world. In this scenario, the world of education and, more specifically, didactics, appears at best as a mere user of AI techniques developed in other fields, forgetting that AI should play a much more relevant role here, serving the human being who is doing his work as a mathematician or who is learning mathematics. The AI4ME symposium at the International Centre for Mathematical Meetings (CIEM) in Castro Urdiales is a space for research and reflection to better understand the interconnected challenges of instrumental learning of mathematics and instrumental mathematics, taking advantage of the achievements and opportunities of Artificial Intelligence for Mathematical Education. This book of abstracts gathers the summaries of the talks presented at the symposium, as well as the conclusions of each of the four thematic groups.
