Dear edulanders, lol!

I'm currently running a Bsc.Ed Math program in a Nigerian University with the aim of making a first class. I'm in my first year and currently preparing for 2nd semester resumption.

I'd appreciate if someone could help me with textbooks (both online and printed) to help me prepare for my 2nd semester.


Eep me please....

My 2nd semester courses are:

1. Edu 111- Foundations of Education
2. Edu 122- Developmental Psychology
3. Edu 152- Introduction to Educational Technology
4. STA 132- Inference

Others are:

MTH 102- Elementary Mathematics II
MTH 103- Elementary Mathematics III

I can handle the GSTs

Thanks in anticipation!

@Gombs hope you don't mind doing some digging for a brother?

Engineering Maths by K.A stroud. Adv Engr Maths by H.K Dass Shaums Series in Statistics, Linear Algebra and Trigonometry. Real Analysis (yet to see a simplified textbook on that) just get anyone and start practicing.
These books are the reason I graduated 4th best in my department. BSc. Mathematics

Thanks!

Can I place online order for them?
Or better still them in e-format?

Thanks again!

Also, get Shaums Series in Statistics (probability ) and general topology.

Thank me later.

I guess you can get them from amazon online stores. Shaums series could be ed free too.
But I'd advice you to buy hard copies and read them @ your leisure. There is something about owning a book you bought yourself, it inspires you work hard in getting your moneys worth in knowledge. That's my personal experience though.

This might sound counter intuitive but my advice for you is to get past notes and past questions from those who graduated before you and from those who took the courses you will be taking and taught by the same professors. In my view, and if you depend on your grade to advance your career, it is better to get the best grades while at school and widen understanding later..Though sometimes both can be achieved but it's not so common. Even the top schools in the world judge you first on the basis of your grades before they it you to see what you can actually do. I know my position might be debated and I accept that different people have different views and experiences, but bro, na wisdom of many years I dey dish out for you so.

Good luck

I share same views with you @boldened but I kinda hold ed materials the same way these days since data subs aren't exactly free. ed materials are also portable. I can have it on my laptop and smartphone. All the same sha! Thanks!

Not at all! I've started something on this part but you've gotta read wide and be extra workaholic to make a 1st class B.Ed Math in my school. A record I intend to shatter.

Good luck with your plan. Just don't go too wide.

Ask those who came close what they would have done if they were to start all over again.

BEd is tough. Take courses from science and then take from education, not easy.

When you achieve your aim, send me an email again. With a first class in math edu, and the help of the Lord, I can place you into a university of your choice. Think Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, MIT. And yes, I mean it.

So, go fight like a lion and achieve your goals.

Great prospect bro...

However, I studied computer science in math department, I never really had a feel of education...

But, when was in school I ed this blog of Asians particularly Indians... They only discus mathematics...csnt the name, but... You could search...

Then secondly, get o line tutors from overseas... Nigerian lecturers may make you look worthless after 4 years.

Finally.. all tutorials in school, especially those by bright students a year or two ahead of you.

Thanks

Hi namesake,
Ayyam the Op

Hello Kenny..... ok. your course is mathematics but intend studying Mech engr. nevertheless, i also have that goal of making a first class and engineering is maths itself. you can see we share some commons. i would like to be ur friend? i will send you a mail. thanks namesake!

I have just learnt a new trick from your last paragraph's comment. Thanks bro!

Making a first class in mathematics education is not easy but it can be done. Study hard and practise always.
