Understanding ISC Mathematics, for class 11 - sections A, B & C, has been written by Mr. M.L. Aggarwal (Former Head of P.G. Department of Mathematics, D.A.V. College, Jalandhar) strictly according to the new syllabus prescribed by the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, New Delhi in the year 2015 and onwards for students of class 11. A new feature - Typical Illustrative Examples and Typical Problems, has been added in some chapters for those students who want to attempt some more challenging problems. The entire matter in the book is given in a logical sequence so as to develop and strengthen the concepts of the students.
This book offers an engaging and comprehensive introduction to scientific theories and the evolution of science and mathematics through the centuries. It discusses the history of scientific thought and ideas and the intricate dynamic between new scientific discoveries, scientists, culture and societies. Through stories and historical accounts, the volume illustrates the human engagement and preoccupation with science and the interpretation of natural phenomena. It highlights key scientific breakthroughs from the ancient to later ages, giving us accounts of the work of ancient Greek and Indian mathematicians and astronomers, as well as of the work of modern scientists like Descartes, Newton, Planck, Mendel and many more. The author also discusses the vast advancements which have been made in the exploration of space, matter and genetics and their relevance in the advancement of the scientific tradition. He provides great insights into the process of scientific experimentation and the relationship between science and mathematics. He also shares amusing anecdotes of scientists and their interactions with the world around them. Detailed and accessible, this book will be of great interest to students and researchers of science, mathematics, the philosophy of science, science and technology studies and history. It will also be useful for general readers who are interested in the history of scientific discoveries and ideas.
S. Chand’s Mathematics books for Classes IX and X are completely based on CCE pattern of CBSE. The book for Term I covers the syllabus from April to September and the book for Term II covers the syllabus from October to March.
Selected as the Michigan Council of Teachers of Mathematics winter book club book! Rich tasks, collaborative work, number talks, problem-based learning, direct instruction...with so many possible approaches, how do we know which ones work the best? In Visible Learning for Mathematics, six acclaimed educators assert it’s not about which one—it’s about when—and show you how to design high-impact instruction so all students demonstrate more than a year’s worth of mathematics learning for a year spent in school. That’s a high bar, but with the amazing K-12 framework here, you choose the right approach at the right time, depending upon where learners are within three phases of learning: surface, deep, and transfer. This results in "visible" learning because the effect is tangible. The framework is forged out of current research in mathematics combined with John Hattie’s synthesis of more than 15 years of education research involving 300 million students. Chapter by chapter, and equipped with video clips, planning tools, rubrics, and templates, you get the inside track on which instructional strategies to use at each phase of the learning cycle: Surface learning phase: When—through carefully constructed experiences—students explore new concepts and make connections to procedural skills and vocabulary that give shape to developing conceptual understandings. Deep learning phase: When—through the solving of rich high-cognitive tasks and rigorous discussion—students make connections among conceptual ideas, form mathematical generalizations, and apply and practice procedural skills with fluency. Transfer phase: When students can independently think through more complex mathematics, and can plan, investigate, and elaborate as they apply what they know to new mathematical situations. To equip students for higher-level mathematics learning, we have to be clear about where students are, where they need to go, and what it looks like when they get there. Visible Learning for Math brings about powerful, precision teaching for K-12 through intentionally designed guided, collaborative, and independent learning.
S Chand's ISC Mathematics is structured according to the latest syllabus as per the new CISCE(Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations), New Delhi, for ISC students taking classes XI & XII examinations.
S. Chand’s Mathematics books for Classes IX and X are completely based on CCE pattern of CBSE. The book for Term I covers the syllabus from April to September and the book for Term II covers the syllabus from October to March.
In continuation to CBSE Mathematics For Class XII (Part 1), Part 2 is also thoroughly revised and updated as per the new CBSE course structure and NCERT guidelines. The subject matter of this book is presented in a very systematic and logical manner. Every effort has been made to make the contents as lucid as possible so that the beginners will grasp the fundamental concepts in an unambiguous manner. KEY FEATURES Large number of solved examples to understand the subject. Categorization of problems under: Level of Difficulty A (Cover the needs of the students preparing for CBSE exams) Level of Difficulty B (Guide the students for engineering entrance examinations). A Smart Table at the beginning of each chapter to decide the relative importance of topics in the CBSE exam. Problem Solving Trick(s) to enhance the problem solving skills. A list of Important Formulae at the beginning of the book. Besides this, each chapter is followed by a Chapter Test and an exercise in which the questions from the CBSE papers of previous years are provided. Working hints to a large number of problems are given at the end of each and every exercise. In a nut shell, this book will help the students score high marks in CBSE, and at the same time build a strong foundation for success in any competitive examination.
