METHODOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TEACHING BUSINESS MATHEMATICS

Abstract

Mathematics subjects based on the options of applicability of mathematical methods in real management processes are being taught in most university and non-university educational institutions. The paper presents insights into mathematics subjects by using computer models in the teaching process. Business Mathematics is a constantly evolving subject that has been gaining increasing significance in the teaching process. The importance of this discipline is an integral part of the change in the overall concepts management science, which is triggered by changes in the global business. As the research of Business Mathematics teaching at academic institutions has not been carried out in Lithuania yet, the examination of the module of this subject as well as the investigation of integration of information technology issues are relevant in terms of both, general and specialized education of students. Even though Business Mathematics teaching methodology and the intended outcomes are presented in the course unit descriptions which can be made public and available to students and lecturers, a comprehensive analysis at the higher-school level has not been conducted yet. Most Lithuanian higher schools are not interested to pursue advanced training methods because of a lack of their dissemination system. The object of this research is business mathematics teaching practice by using computer models, while the goal of this study is to examine innovative solutions in scientific work to be applied in teaching Mathematics subjects and to provide the original benchmark in teaching methods by using computer models. The article deploys an example of the linear programming task solution by using software “Solver” reveals the essence of innovation of the learning process. Business Mathematics teaching process assessment methods are among the least discussed areas, so the paper highlights the need for a more flexible interpretation of the potential non-traditional methods in assessing the discipline, such as creation of added value during the teaching process.
