Home Heating Mathematics Description
In nearly every school district, reforms in science and mathematics education are underway. Two common Threads in these reforms are increased emphasis on problem solving and real-world applications. Yet, many teachers Ask where these real-world applications will come from? This paper (HOME HEATING MATHEMATICS) provides an application in one particular area, that of home heating. We discuss the mathematics behind a thermostat and provide equations that allow computation of temperature changes within a home. Sample problems are given, as well as suggestions for further study.
