One can identify at least three different types of relationships between mathematics and crises. First, mathematics can picture a crisis. This is in accordance with the classic interpretation of mathematical modelling, which highlights that a mathematical model provides a representation of a piece of reality, a reality that could be a critical ...

Mathematics or Mathematics for Engineering? [PDF]
It is undeniable that mathematics is indispensable in education and practice of Engineering in all areas. In this paper we discuss the use of some active learning strategies on calculus applied in the first and second years of Engineering degrees. Among other experiences we report a flipped classroom experience, autonomous study and self evaluation ...

Mathematical proof: from mathematics to school mathematics [PDF]
Proof plays a central role in developing, establishing and communicating mathematical knowledge. Nevertheless, it is not such a central element in school mathematics. This article discusses some issues involving mathematical proof in school, intending to characterize the understanding of mathematical proof in school, its function and the meaning and ...

Mathematics Turned Inside Out: The Intensive Faculty Versus the Extensive Faculty [PDF]
Research universities in the United States have larger mathematics faculties outside their mathematics departments than inside. Members of this "extensive" faculty conduct most mathematics research, their interests are the most heavily published areas of mathematics, and they teach this mathematics in upper division courses independent of mathematics ...

Mathematics in mathematics education
What role does mathematics play in the teaching and research of some or all of the ‘disciplines’ of mathematics education, science education and the social sciences? This question was that to which I was asked to respond at the Academy of Science of South Africa’s workshop on the mathematical sciences, held in September 2016. As suggested by the title,
