Dr. Costella’s Mathematics Notes
This page contains scans of all 823 overhead transparencies that I
created when I was a high school mathematics teacher in Melbourne, Australia,
from 1997 to 2006.
The pages are numbered in the order that I created them, and so represent
a mixture of topics from Year 8 to Year 12 level.
I actually wrote each number
on the bottom corner of each transparency,
which let me figure out where to find each of them
(stored in a number of pocket binders with plastic sleeves).
I added letters (‘a’, ‘b’, etc.) when I found
that I needed to cut a transparency into parts, so that I could use just
a part of it (one subtopic) in a course different from the one that it
was originally created for.
Hence, the only way to find any particular
topic is to search for it on this page!
Sorry.
(When I was teaching, I would create a page for each module of work
for each subject, which linked to these notes in the correct order.)
Anything in a title between square brackets was added at the time
that I compiled
this collection page, and represents text not in the title of the
overhead transparency itself.
