Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA STUDY OF FIRST YEAR TERTIARY STUDENTS’ MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE- CONCEPTUAL AND PROCEDURAL KNOWLEDGE, LOGICAL THINKING AND CREATIVITYGurudeo Anand Tularam, Kees HulsmanThis study focuses on students in first year environmental science degree programs where traditionally mathematical emphasis has been much less than the strict science or math majors. The importance now placed in applied mathematics means that students need to gain more conceptual and quantitative knowledge in not only the environmental degree programs but also in most if not all non-mathematical … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 1 Aug 2013 · 7,255 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Higher-Order Thinking Skills, Cognitive Load Theory, and Metacognition in Algebraic Problem-SolvingGurudeo Anand TularamThis study synthesizes 30 years of research (1990–2020) on algebraic problem-solving, integrating Higher-Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), Cognitive Load Theory (CLT), and metacognitive strategies to enhance student outcomes. Utilizing a critical synthesis approach with data from student interviews, problem-solving observations, and longitudinal tracking, the analysis reveals consistent patterns across diverse educational contexts despite limitations and variable factors like teaching styles and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 21 Apr 2026 · 2,016 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVedas and the Development of Arithmetic and AlgebraGurudeo Anand TularamProblem statement: Algebra developed in three stages: rhetorical or prose algebra, syncopated or abbreviated algebra and symbolic algebra-known as “school algebra”. School algebra developed rather early in India and the literature now suggests that the first civilization to develop symbolic algebra was the Vedic Indians. Approach: Philosophical ideas of the time influenced the development of the decimal system and arithmetic … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,263 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Backpropagation Neural Network for Computer Network SecurityKhalil ShihabIn this paper, an efficient and scalable technique for computer network security is presented. On one hand, the decryption scheme and the public key creation used in this work are based on a multi-layer neural network that is trained by backpropagation learning algorithm. On the other hand, the encryption scheme and the private key creation process are based on Boolean … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 19,535 accessesView PDF Cite
