This paper describes an innovative approach to develop the understanding about the relevance of mathematics to computer science. The mathematical subjects are introduced through an application-to-model scheme that lead ...

In this paper we consider linear calibration problems in regressions models with independent errors distributed according to the Student-t distribution. The approach followed is Bayesian, thus, involving the need for the ...

Mathematical modelling has acquired relevance at all educational levels in the last decades since integrating this activity in instruction provides significant contexts for improving students’ learning, including in linear ...

Technology-mediated mathematical modelling has been recognized as a significant learning context. This paper reports on a study aiming to characterize the modelling routes performed by Costa Rican undergraduate students ...

Teaching mathematics for engineering students is very important. New undergraduate students are aware that they will need mathematical concepts in professional activities. It is still usual to observe not only the difficulty ...
