A Mathematics Glossary Web Application and Service
| Title: | A Mathematics Glossary Web Application and Service |
| Author: | Eshaque, Adnan |
| Description: | At the Institute for Computational Mathematics (ICM), research on Web-based Mathematics Education (WME) aims to establish a new and much more effective paradigm for supporting and delivering mathematics education. An important aspect of learning mathematics is, understanding terminology and being able to look up the meaning of terms readily. Existing mathematics glossaries are little more than lists of terms placed online. As part of the WME effort, this thesis describes the design and implementation of the Mathematics Glossary (MG) System that provides an easy, effective and structured way for representing, storing, retrieving and communicating mathematical terminologies and supports interoperability between applications through an XML based language MgML (Mathematics Glossary Markup Language). The MG Web Application supports browsing while the MG Web Service supports programmatic retrieval of glossary items. The MG System works well with WME but is an independent and self-contained tool. |
