Environment The highest form of pure thought is in mathematics. ~Plato Maria Montessori believed that human intelligence is no longer based on natural intelligence but on mathematical intelligence. Humans have moved beyond the innate survival instincts of early humans and moved toward an analytical awareness of the world. Math is more than math facts and computations. It deals with shape‚ space‚ patterns‚ symbols and the relationships found therein. Mathematics: Birth to Age Three Learning about patterns

TOK Reflection: Mathematics To what extent is math relevant to your life and the lives of others you know and how can it become an even more viable area of knowledge. “In mathematics I can report no deficience‚ except it be that men do not sufficiently understand the excellent use of the Pure Mathematics.” Roger Bacon (1214-1294) Mathematics: the abstract science of number‚ quantity‚ and space; a subject considered by many to be useless‚ a waste of time‚ and too difficult. “When am

DISCRETE MATHEMATICS Discrete mathematics is the study of mathematical structures that are fundamentally discrete rather than continuous. In contrast to real numbers that have the property of varying "smoothly"‚ the objects studied in discrete mathematics – such as integers‚ graphs‚ and statements in logic – do not vary smoothly in this way‚ but have distinct‚ separated values. Discrete mathematics therefore excludes topics in "continuous mathematics" such as calculus and analysis. Discrete objects

He was a Greek mathematician and is probably best known for his work Elements. Since little is known about the personal life of Euclid‚ it is difficult to do a biography on him. His chief work‚ entitled Elements‚ is a comprehensive essay on mathematics. It includes 13 volumes that entail such subjects as plane geometry‚ dealing with the properties of flat surfaces and of planar figures‚ such as the triangle; proportion in general‚ a particular kind of relation between groups of numbers or quantities;

world without mathematics‚ yet thousands in the United States alone cannot grasp mathematics‚ cannot learn mathematics because of "Dyscalculia" (also called Dyscalcula). Dyscalculia is a term meaning "specific learning disability in mathematics." People who suffer with a poor memory for all things mathematical have many other symptoms and characteristics. Taken as a whole‚ these coexisting conditions comprise what is termed as "the dyscalculia syndrome." Dyscalculia is an MLD (mathematics learning disability)

later‚ Daft and Wington (1979) proposed a language variety theory to explain media choice. It evolved from the idea that certain media‚ such as painting or music‚ are capable of conveying a broader range of ideas‚ meanings‚ emotions compared to mathematics. Such media have a higher language variety. This led to the suggestion that language variety needs to be matched with the communication task. Equivocal and complex social tasks are said to require a medium with high language variety. Obviously
