Exponentials and logarithms: part 1: e

by Brian Brooks

The series Getting Ready to Teach Advanced School Mathematics is designed with teachers of students aged 16 onwards in mind. If you are a teacher new to higher-level school mathematics teaching or a more experienced teacher aiming to deepen your subject knowledge, this is the series for you. Through a sequence of thought-provoking questions and solutions, each volume guides you through a focussed area of mathematics and ensures that your own subject knowledge is far stronger than that needed simply to teach skills for exam you will be able to nurture a more profound level of insight and understanding in your students and to inspire them with the beauty of the mathematical world that cannot possibly be appreciated through repetitive examples and algorithmic approaches. Brian Brooks is a mathematics teacher with many years classroom experience. He has spent these years developing and honing a style of teaching that, through written and oral questioning that gradually leads students from what they know to what they need to know next, encourages them above all to think for themselves, to work collaboratively, to learn from mistakes, and to become creative, confident, independent problem-solvers.
