Topic 1- Mathematics and Certainty Having said something about the nature of formal systems‚ we must now look in more detail at the nature of mathematical certainty. To do this‚ let us begin by making two distinctions. The first concerns the nature of propositions. An analytic proposition is one that is true by definition. A synthetic proposition is any proposition that is not analytic. So we can say that every proposition is either analytic or synthetic. The second distinction concerns how we

Aalen - University of Applied Sciences balper@fh-aalen.de http://www.fbm.fh-aalen.de/ Abstract: In this article‚ we present the concept of mathematical application projects as a means to enhance the capabilities of engineering students to use mathematics for solving problems in larger projects as well as to communicate and present mathematical content. As opposed to many case studies‚ we concentrate on stating criteria and project classes from which instructors can build instances (i.e. specific

Theory of Knowledge Éanna OBoyle ToK Mathematics “... what the ordinary person in the street regards as mathematics is usually nothing more than the operations of counting with perhaps a little geometry thrown in for good measure. This is why banking or accountancy or architecture is regarded as a suitable profession for someone who is ‘good at figures’. Indeed‚ this popular view of what mathematics is‚ and what is required to be good at it‚ is extremely prevalent; yet it would be laughed at

What is Mathematics? Mathematics may be described as the fundamental science. It may be broadly described as the science of space‚ time and number. The universe exists in space and time‚ and is constituted of units of matter. To calculate the extension or composition of matter in space and time and to

Thinking Mathematically Short Essay: Understanding Mathematics and Linguistics How is Mathematics and Linguistics related with each other? Linguistics is the science of language. Linguists seek to understand the proper uses of natural human language. How languages are structured‚ how and why they vary and change‚ how they are acquired‚ and how people‚ in communicating use them. Mathematics on the other hand is the language of science. It is used to understand
