Philosophy of mathematics

for being physicists. His parents were Johann Bernoulli and Dorothea Falkner. His father was a doctor and well-known mathematician. He was called the “Archimedes of his age”. Education: Taught by his more caring older brother, Daniel learned mathematics very quickly. However, his father wanted him to learn business to earn a better pay than he did as the chairman at Basel University. After some arguing, Daniel decided to learn medicine in Heidelberg, Germany; Strasbourg, France;…

interesting and I learned many knew things about Dr. Heitz. Dr. Heitz has a bachelor’s degree and a master’s in mathematics from the University of West Texas and has recently received his doctorate degree. He currently teaches college Algebra, finite math method for teachers, geometry, and sometimes calculus or trigonometry. Dr. Heitz said that he always knew that he wanted to teach mathematics. When he went to college he received a scholarship to go to the University of West Texas. There he…

ACC305 Excel Flowchart Project (10 points) Required: 1. Discuss the internal control weaknesses in the flowchart. Propose recommended fixes to the situation (you may have to involve other individuals or system controls to address the weaknesses). It would be better if the head of the startup entity, who approves the purchases, was not the same person who receives the ordered materials. Having the same person approve the purchases and receive the materials is problematic because that individual…

The moment I heard about the club from the announcements that it was about competing in science I wanted to be a part of the group. The science Olympiad does a lot of things; engineering, Earth science, physical science, and a lot of other subjects. I like science for a lot of reasons. First, science is exciting because it holds a lot of interesting information about Earth, for example, building bridges, bottle rocket, and green generation. Second, science describes how molecules work together,…

When I was a young girl, pencils and paintbrushes were practically extensions of my fingers. I may not have been able to recite the alphabet or count to 26, but with a box of magic markers, I had 1,000 words at my fingertips. My first few years of school consisted of many parent-teacher meetings that revolved around the fact that it seemed impossible to keep me from scribbling sloppy stars and smiley faces on every assignment. That is until one day, I finally found a subject that I was truly…

comprises five interwoven strands consisting of conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, strategic competence, adaptive reasoning, and productive disposition. To assist educators, NCTM provided an explanation in Principles and Standards for School Mathematics (2000) that suggested students will reach specific levels of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency each year (p. 7) rather than every topic every year. The aim of this paper is to provide research on the process of developing…

It is quite apparent that the scientific discoveries made during the Baroque era have established a foundation for the modern age today. “In the seventeenth century, newly invented instruments allowed scientists to observe and measure natural phenomena with increasing accuracy” (Sayre, 22.2). These new inventions included scientific discoveries formed by Anton Van Leeuwenhoek, Johannes Kepler, Isaac Newton, and Galileo Galilei. Leeuwenhoek made a glass lens that magnified over 200 times. This is…

At that time, Mathematics were divided into four branches: athematic, geometry, astronomy and music. The first two branches were pure, while the other two were applied. Hypatia according to Hesychius (Greek Biographer), worked in the first three. Hypatia taught both arithmetic…

After analyzing the data, it is evident that the school has a skeleton of a PLC. The staff is willing to hear new ideas, however, there is not a strong enough leadership to start implementing the ideas. The focus of this design will be a math PLC with three different grade levels. There will be one kindergarten teacher, one first grade teacher, one second grade teacher, one third grade teacher, two fourth grade teachers, one fifth grade teacher and one member of the ILT (instructional lead…
