"Mathepedia" - Engin Ün
Engin Ün's work "Mathepedia" offers a new and creative approach to mathematics education, aiming to teach students both mathematical concepts and a wealth of cultural and historical knowledge. Drawing on his 15 years of experience as a mathematics teacher, Ün aims to make mathematics more accessible and enjoyable in this book. The book makes lessons more engaging for students by blending mathematical questions with cultural figures such as Maradona, Bertolt Brecht, and Camille Pissarro.

The chapters in the book present mathematical problems in connection with cultural and historical topics. For instance, methods such as percentage calculations in Brecht's "The Threepenny Opera" or relating the hunting patterns of the arctic fox to geometric concepts are used. In this way, students have the opportunity to apply mathematical concepts in a real-world context. The book also covers topics such as the history of Palmyra and Cappadocia, the legend of the Simurgh, and the life of penguins in Antarctica, offering students a wide range of knowledge.

Mathepedia aims to support students' academic success while also increasing their cultural and historical knowledge. With this work, Engin Ün seeks to increase students' interest in mathematics while simultaneously raising their general knowledge level. This work stands out with its rich content, making mathematics more understandable and enjoyable.
