Pattern
Based
Reason

Volume 1A
Printed in Canada
ISBN 0-9697564-5-3

No matter how patterns are met and mastered, careful and observable combination, one at a time, one after another,  shows in part an operational command of an art or discipline,  a reflex- thought-based. Take your pick.  Online Postscripts explore methods of indirect reason.


Three Skills
For 
Algebra

Volume 2

Printed in Canada
ISBN 0-9697564-2-9

The title is misleading. A 4th skill  appears in chapter 14.  Appendices include advice for students. Starts with logic chapters to introduce the use of implication rules in maths, and to develop lawyer like, precision reading and writing skills - two musts for less  confusion and better performance in work and studies.   This work aims make  logic and algebra more accessible. 


Why Slopes
and
More Math

Volume 3

Printed in Canada
ISBN 0-9697564-3-7

For Calculus, includes geometric & algebraic starter lessons. See chapters 2 to 6.  Appendices are online in separate site area  Real  Analysis with some duplication in site area Calculus IntroductionVolume 3 aims to make calculus and real analysis more accessible.


Mathematics
Curriculum
Notes

Volume 1B
Printed in Canada
ISBN 0-9697564-6-1

Where an art or discipline is based on observable movements or patterns, inductive principles for their mastery call for larger movements or patterns to be decomposed into smaller movements or patterns which can be mastered immediately or in sequence. Occam's Razor may yet favour this approach in mathematics education if its methods are statistically effective and are clearly and well-documented in course delivery how-TOs, easily understood and followed.

What may be learnt and when depends on how skills and concepts are developed. Making the hard easier and clearer will allow earlier & richer development of skills and concepts.

 Logic Mastery
 Amazing, Amusing, Amorous,  Delicious, Delightful, Edifying, Strengthening Elixir. 
It eases work & learning difficulties Makes the hard easier. Opens eyes. Leads to greater precision.
in reading and writing

After logic  (a) continue reading Three Skills for Algebra, chapters 8 to 14  and do so alongside site area on solving linear2007 Equations ; or (b) see this calculus starter lesson and Volume 3, Why Slopes  & More Math, chapters 2 to 6;
