Description

La innovador a obra de David Poole destaca vectores y intuicion geometrica desde el principio y prepara mejor al estudiante para hacer la transicion de los aspectos computacionales del curso a los teoricos. Disenado para un curso de introduccion de uno o dos semestres y escrito de manera sencilla , "el matematico ingles" Poole centra su enfoque sobre la visualizacion que beneficia al estudiante y su conexion con el material. Ofrece ejemplos concretos para introducir al estudiante antes de presentar la abstraccion y sigue inmediatamente una discusion teorica con ejemplos adicionales y una matriz de aplicaciones a una gran variedad de disciplinas. Estudiantes de una diversidad de fondos y estilos de aprendizaje se benefician de enfoque practico de Poole, que cubre vectores y geometria vectorial desde el inicio con el fin de permitir que los estudiantes visualicen las matematicas mientras estan realizando operaciones matriciales. Con una comprension concreta de la geometria de vectores, los estudiantes son capaces de visualizar y comprender el significado de los calculos que se encuentran y desarrollar la madurez matematica para pensar en forma abstracta.
