PROBLEMS AND CHALLENGES FACING EFFECTIVE STUDY OF MATHEMATICS AMONG UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS

CHAPTER ONE/INTRODUCTION The interactions between the variables of instructors, students, curriculum, local context, and other aspects in teaching have an impact on what will occur in courses (Stigler and Hilbert, 1998). Rubenstein (2004) endorsed the idea that teaching is a difficult task. The foundational knowledge for teaching mathematics comprises an understanding of mathematics, the relationships … Read more

Investigating the cases of novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) Using dynamic statistical techniques

Abstract The initial investigation by local hospital attributed the outbreak of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) to pneumonia unknown cause that appeared like the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) that occurred in 2003. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 as public health emergency after it spread outside China to numerous countries. Thus, an assessment … Read more

A mathematical model for simulating the phase-based transmissibility of a novel coronavirus

Background As reported by the World Health Organization, a novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) was identified as the causative virus of Wuhan pneumonia of unknown etiology by Chinese authorities on 7 January, 2020. The virus was named as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses on 11 February, 2020. This … Read more

EFFECT OF STUDENT PERCEPTION ON TEACHING AND LEARNING MATHEMATICS

EFFECT OF STUDENT PERCEPTION ON TEACHING AND LEARNING MATHEMATICS CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Teaching is a complex system which affects what will happen in classes through the interactions among the factors of teachers, students, curriculum, local setting and others (Stigler and Hilbert, 1998). Rubenstein (2004) supported teaching as a complex endeavor. The knowledge base behind mathematics … Read more

Mathematical Modeling of Predator-Prey models: Lotka-Volterra Systems

Mathematical Modeling of Predator-Prey models: Lotka-Volterra Systems The time dependent non-linear reaction-diffusion equation in predator–prey models in Lotka- Volterra system has been formulated and solved analytically and numerically. Analytical expressions for the prey and predator populations are derived by using the HPM. The primary result of this work is simple approximate calculations of prey and … Read more
