Reform mathematics

Math in the Brain Scientists have found, through research using brain-imaging analysis, that the brain does not work like we once thought it did. It was previously thought that the way the brain works out a math problem is totally different than what was previously understood. The research found four different stages of the brain while working a math problem that disproved the theory that math in the brain is performed in the same place as language processing (Weisberger, 2016). The research…

It was a Tuesday afternoon and the heat in Mr. Martin's room felt as if we were next to the sun. The schools maintenance crew always kept the furnace on the highest setting possible. “So class what did we talk about yesterday ?” said Mr. Martin as he takes out the 590 page textbook on accounting and finance. “We talked about how to find assets, liabilities and owner's equity,” says Ms. Know” it all in the front of the classroom.” As Mr. Martin begins his lesson, I quietly whisper to my best…

He opened a school called the Semicircle and set up a brotherhood for both men and women. He became a priest of Diaspolis, and he started his own religion called Mathematikoi. He is known for making many mathematic discoveries during his life. He was the first to prove that the sum of a triangle is equal to two right angles, and that in a right triangle, the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the square of the other two sides. It is believed that he…

has discovered many laws and theories within the new areas. He also made some contributions to a science-linked topic called chemistry, as it included to Newton being a main supporter of the atomic theory. Romanowski (2014) tells us that Isaac mathematics was important as he came up with the area of binominal theorem. Binominal was a simple method to identify the coefficients. The Binominal theorem was invented to help with the topics of probability and statistics. The discovery of the…

Students have often pushed away from STEM due to the stigma surrounding it or an inability to access technology. These factors contribute to the shortage of technical professionals that our nation faces meaning lost opportunities for the students that might like STEM and the employer. If the students can be exposed to STEM through lessons and purely having access to it , more students may have an interest. Working to solve this problem means a lot to me because without a few key people and…

later served as its president for 24 years until he died.When Newton began to ponder on the problem of the motion of the planets and what kept them in their orbits around the sun, he realized that the mathematics of the day weren't sufficient to the task. So he invented a new branch of mathematics, which he called the fluxions or now known as calculus. Calculus allowed him to draw tangents to match curves, find the lengths of curves, and solve problems that geometry could not solve. Newton’s…

Sir Isaac Newton was a scholar, a mathematician, a scientist, and a professor. He created the 3 laws of physics and came up with one of the most famous gravity equations in history and more. This paper will explore his life, his achievements, and his studies, throughout his long lifetime. Sir Isaac Newton was born December 25th, 1642 in Woolsthorpe Lincolnshire, England. Two months before Isaac’s birth his father passed away. At 3 years of age his mother remarried and moved away leaving Isaac…

Recording Engineer Most people think that going into careers in music isn’t wise, due to the fact that they think only a few careers are available. They also are under the impression that the jobs either require you to be performing, managing or producing and that they don’t pay well. But what they don’t know is that there is actually a wide variety of Jobs available in the music industry. Jobs that, not only, are suited to all strengths but also pay well and are very capable of supporting you…

Ames Room Just imagine looking through a peephole and seeing two contradictory images; one is gigantic and the other tiny. But how can that be if it’s the same room? The answer to this question is the Ames room. The Ames room is a deformed room used to create an optical illusion of relative sizes; the size of the person depended on where the person was standing. To understand the Ames room, people need to know the history behind it, how it works, and the psychology involved. To start things…

that the acceleration of an object is dependent on two variables. The third laws states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Newton’s discovery of calculus led to way more discoveries of solving mathematical problems. In mathematics Newton was the original discoverer of the infinitesimal calculus. Newton's Philosophiae was one of the most important single works in the history of modern science. Calculus is a form of algebraic expression. Sir Isaac Newton and Gottfried…
