A Spreadsheet Approach to Maths for GNVQ Engineering

by Ros Sutherland, Alison Wolf, Daniel Howell

Most areas of engineering mathematics are suited to the spreadsheet approach and students can find the techniques easier than more conventional computational methods. This book covers the spreadsheet procedures for approximately two-thirds of the area of mathematics needed for the advanced GNVQ unit, but does not attempt to cover those problems more sensibly tackled by conventional means. By attempting the questions and assignments within the book the student compiles a record of competence, suitable for inclusion in the portfolio and assessment. To this end worked examples have solutions, but answers to all other exercises are to be found in the lecturers' guide available free to teaching staff from Edward Arnold.
