Mathematics For Learning

With Inammatory Notes for the Mortication of Educologists and the Vindication of Just Plain Folks

Alain Schremmer

In the Spring 2004 issue of The AMATYC Review, Schremmer introduced his idea for an open-source serialized text: Mathematics For Learning. The Preface to the text appeared in the Spring 2004 issue with a new chapter in each subsequent issue of The AMATYC Review. This issue contains Chapter 3. There are six sections in this chapter: "States," "Transactions," "Usual Representations: Signed-Number-Phrases versus T-accounts," "Adding Signed-Number-Phrases," "Subtracting Signed-Number- Phrases," and "Effect of Transactions on States."
