I think that your proposed solutions to math education — in short, to rely on mathematical applications to other fields — fails to capture much of the mathematical experience. Mathematical Experience 98 Pb - Google Books New! It occurred to me that this situation is remarkably similar to the position that we find ourselves in mathematics education, at least in the k to 12 level. I considered this an opportunity to plant an exponential growth seed and restore a bit of surprise to the everyday mathematical experience of these students. However naïve we may know it is, the Platonic myth of mathematics does capture an aspect of our experience — the resistance of mathematical ideas to being merely what we want them to be — which is almost uncommunicable to the uninitiated. In mathematics usually includes 10 to 15 classroom courses! Since we the bloggers want to reach other high school students, I will briefly explain what the RSI experience is like. Still, as a guide to the inner workings of the mathematical jungle, Stewart provides an engaging and informative experience . My own opinion is that the study for the Master of Science degree is the most intensive learning experience in the mathematical sciences. But it really doesn't do justice to programming (aka coding). The 2009 Research Science Institute ended last Friday. Math is bogus, and used by science to make . Hofstadter is not inimical to mathematics as the lingua franca of science, which we think is detrimental to human thought, and a contrivance that is unreal, a concoction that gives scientists a mantle of authority that it doesn't really deserve. But that's no reason to cut out lectures, which form the core of the university mathematics experience. Mathematics can run in the background, but the time and attention of active monitoring is required. In the book The Mathematical Experience, the chapter on symbols mentions computer programming [1]. To master mathematics is to master an intangible view, it is to acquire the skill of a virtuoso who cannot pin his performance on criteria. Taylor and the atomic bomb is well established in the folklore of applied mathematics, and has become a staple of introductory courses on dimensional analysis.
