Mathematics and Real Life: Reflections on Teaching Mathematics
Mathematicians a hundred years ago would have had no difficulty in giving convincing answersfor many of them were involved in interdisciplinary research. For historical reasons, Mathematics had to undergo a period of intense introspection from which it is only now emerging. Most of us have thus grown up doing mathematics for its own sake, because we enjoy doing it and it satisfies our basic des...
متن کاملReflections on Mathematics∗
Though the philosophy of mathematics encompasses many kinds of questions, my response to the five questions primarily focuses on the prospects of developing a unified approach to the metaphysical and epistemological issues concerning mathematics. My answers will be framed from within a single conceptual framework. By ‘conceptual framework’, I mean an explicit and formal listing of primitive not...
متن کاملReflections on reflections in explicit mathematics
We give a broad discussion of reflection principles in explicit mathematics, thereby addressing various kinds of universe existence principles. The proof-theoretic strength of the relevant systems of explicit mathematics is couched in terms of suitable extensions of KripkePlatek set theory.
متن کاملSome Reflections about the Construction of College English Teaching System
The paper analyses and researches the problems of constructing college English teaching system, the fostering of students’ abilities in language learning and language communication, the teaching according to students differences, the scientificness, the practicability and the rationality of compiling textbooks. It also puts forward a few tentative ideas of the constructions of the college Engli...
متن کاملOn teaching mathematics
Mathematics is a part of physics. Physics is an experimental science, a part of natural science. Mathematics is the part of physics where experiments are cheap. The Jacobi identity (which forces the heights of a triangle to cross at one point) is an experimental fact in the same way as that the Earth is round (that is, homeomorphic to a ball). But it can be discovered with less expense. In the ...
