Hi all you math puzzle afficianados! The popular math puzzle games have been added to Drexel’s Math Forum. Created by Japanese math teacher Tetsuya Miyamoto, KenKen which means “wisdom squared” uses simple arithmetic and logic to solve puzzles. Teacher guides, Math Forum Problem of the Week and other tied-in resources are planned for the future. Check it out and have fun! http://mathforum.org/kenken/

Have Your Say!

Considering our Drexel community, Hagerty Library is looking to improve the science and technology portion of the leisure books collection.

Some really terrific science and technology books came out over the past year. Please take a look at this list of 2009’s best and vote for the ones you’d like to see added to the shelves.

VOTE HERE

Don’t see what you want? Make suggestions – or check the library catalog, we may already have it!

Please vote by the end of the day next Tuesday (1/19).

Alice's Adventures in Algebra: Wonderland Solved

mg20427391.600-1_300

It’s break and time to wander around a bit. Just came across this article in the New Scientist. Here is the “mathematical analysis” of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll (aka mathematician Charles Dodgson). DPhil candidate, Melanie Bayley, offers up some mathematical explanations of those weird adventures that Alice has. Take a look-see: http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20427391.600-alices-adventures-in-algebra-wonderland-solved.html?full=true

It’s kinda fun!
