Interactives for Exploring Mathematical Concepts
Professor Ian Stewart is students’ guide through Incredible Numbers, an iPad app from Touch Press. Numbers define the patterns of sunflowers. They bring pleasure through music. And they help to answer questions such as, “How many ways are there to lace my shoes?” Interactive examples—from simple equations to a working Enigma machine—put the concepts behind mathematics at students’ fingertips. The app includes 23 articles embedded with 71 interactive demonstrations and 23 interactive sections, as well as 15 mathematical puzzles that let students immerse themselves in the patterns and concepts behind each topic: Infinity, Pi, Music, Codes, Nature, Primes, Polygons, and Factorials. Cost: $4.99
