Matholicism

Introduction

Hi everyone and welcome to Matholicism! To quote Galileo Galilei, "Mathematics is the language with which God has written the universe", this reflects the fundamental nature of Mathematical logic that underpins the study of all other disciplines.

This website is my attempt at building an interactive E-Textbook based around the Singapore Mathematics Curriculum (for now). My personal belief is that:

(A) Mathematics is a living discipline so I will be adding bonus content to extend the learning for students who are passionate to read beyond the standard textbooks. The extension lies not just in terms of more breadth (Eg. Topics/Methods absent in the curriculum), and more depth (Eg. Higher difficulty questions) but also density (i.e. the ability to inter-connect the different topics and strands of Mathematics together).

(B) Mathematics (like all subjects) is best taught using multiple modalities (words, equations, diagrams, physical & digital manipulatives) but the gap in most Mathematics education is the student's ability to visualise abstract equations. Much of this textbook is written with visual aids to bridge that understanding.

(C) Mathematical fluency can only be achieved with mastery learning. Peppered throughout this website will be self-assessment practices that will allow the student to check on their own understanding against the defined success criteria for each topic.
