Mathematics education awards are recognitions given to individuals, organizations, or programs that have made significant contributions to the field of mathematics education. These awards can honor teachers, researchers, writers, and institutions that have demonstrated excellence in teaching, curriculum development, educational research, or advocacy for the importance of mathematics education. Some common types of mathematics education awards include: 1. **Teaching Awards**: Recognizing outstanding mathematics educators at various levels, from elementary to higher education.
Professorships in mathematics refer to academic positions held by scholars who are responsible for teaching, conducting research, and contributing to the academic community within the field of mathematics. These positions can vary in rank, including titles such as Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Full Professor, each reflecting different levels of experience, achievement, and responsibility.
A basic dimension typically refers to a fundamental measurement or parameter used to describe the properties of an object or physical phenomenon. In various fields, "basic dimension" can have slightly different meanings: 1. **Mathematics/Geometry**: Basic dimensions often refer to the fundamental aspects of geometric shapes, such as length, width, height, area, and volume. These dimensions help characterize the size and shape of objects.
Email fraud refers to various fraudulent activities that are carried out using email as a medium. This type of fraud often involves deceptive practices designed to trick individuals or organizations into providing sensitive information, such as personal data, bank account numbers, or passwords.
The Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists (ECAS) is an organization founded in 1946, initially established to address the concerns surrounding nuclear weapons and their implications for global security and human survival. It was created by a group that included notable scientists and public figures, many of whom were involved in the Manhattan Project—the U.S. project that developed the atomic bomb during World War II.
Emilio Rosenblueth is a notable figure in the field of engineering and systems analysis, particularly known for his contributions to the study of complex systems. He is often recognized for his work in the areas of operations research and systems engineering. One of his significant contributions is the concept of "system dynamics," which involves using mathematical models to understand the behavior of complex systems over time. Rosenblueth's work has had implications in various fields, including engineering, management, and environmental studies, among others.

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
