Logic And Proof For Mathematicians: A Twentieth Century Perspective, Calvin Jongsma
Logic And Proof For Mathematicians: A Twentieth Century Perspective, Calvin Jongsma
Faculty Work Comprehensive List
If there is one aspect of mathematics education that frustrates both students and teachers alike, it has got to be learning how to do valid proofs. Students often feel they really know the mathematics they're studying but that their teachers place some unreasonably stringent demands upon their arguments. Teachers, on the other hand, can't understand where their students get some of the wacky arguments they come up with. They argue in circles, they end up proving a different result from what they claim, they make false statements, they draw invalid inferences - it can be quite exasperating at times! Unfortunately, …
Christianity And Mathematics, Calvin Jongsma
Christianity And Mathematics, Calvin Jongsma
Faculty Work Comprehensive List
Recent decades have witnessed the growth of a rather remarkable phenomenon: Christian mathematicians discussing the integration of their Christian faith with their mathematical work.

Reformed Theological Ethics Of Speech Communication, Charles Veenstra
Reformed Theological Ethics Of Speech Communication, Charles Veenstra
Faculty Work Comprehensive List
This project develops and applies a Biblically-based Reformed theological system of ethics for speech communication.
The dissertation includes a review of literature on ethics in speech communication and indicates that: 1) ethics is a significant concern in the field of speech communication, 2) no single normative ethical theory dominates, 3} each normative ethical theory currently advocated faces significant problems, 4) critical pieces applying normative standards are few, 5) little attention is given to ethics of religious speakers or broadcasters, and 6) the normative ethical theory based in Reformed theology, which is the subject of this dissertation, is undeveloped in the …
