The Textbook for Courses MAT 210-211
This textbook (Essential Mathematics for Business and Economic
Analysis, Pearson Custom Publishing) is continuously revised. I
participate in the revisions, together with other people. The current
edition (3rd edition, orange cover) still has some misprints.
For the list
of misprints found so far, please
click here. For the .doc file, please click here.
If you find any more misprints, please email me at ifulman@math.asu.edu.
Programs for Graphing Calculators
I have written several programs for different graphing calculators. To see the
programs or download them, please click here.
Randomly Generated Paper Exams
I have developed a system producing paper exams with randomly generated problems,
in a fashion similar to WeBWorK. This way each student will receive his/her own unique
exam form, which reduces cheating. To read more about this system or to download a
sample exam, please click here.
I have given several talks about this system at the FYM Seminar (see
above). Also, I gave a talk about this system at the MAA Southwestern
sectional meeting in Sliver City, NM on April 3, 2009. For more
information, please
