Hi There! My name is Cassie-Jaye Simmons and this is my space of personal and professional growth, reflection and critical analysis of weekly topics covered in EDMA206/262. ENJOY!

 

Maths according to me:

 

A way to use number, symbols and formulas (and, even letters!), to create answers to problems.

 

Maths according to the TEXTBOOK:

 

- Mathematics is a study of patterns and relationships

- Mathematics is a way of thinking

- Mathematics is an art, characterised by order and internal consistency

- Mathematics is a language that uses carefully defined terms and symbols

- Mathematics is a tool
