Theology And Philosophy Of Mathematics, Russell V. Benson
Theology And Philosophy Of Mathematics, Russell V. Benson
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
This paper examines history and philosophy to explore the answer to the theological question of whether or not Christians should pursue the mathematical sciences.
Some Contributions Of Stanley Jaki To An Understanding Of Mathematics, Paul Devries
Some Contributions Of Stanley Jaki To An Understanding Of Mathematics, Paul Devries
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981

Random Variables And A Sovereign God, Lloyd Montzingo
Random Variables And A Sovereign God, Lloyd Montzingo
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
This paper takes a brief look at the history of conflict between the concepts of chance and divine activity. After reviewing some evidence for randomness in the universe, present philosophical and theological views from four different scientists on this subject are presented. The discussion concludes with some questions and observations concerning those questions.
A Response To Professor Poythress’S “Science As Allegory”, Paul Devries
A Response To Professor Poythress’S “Science As Allegory”, Paul Devries
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
This paper critiques some of the arguments given by Vern Sheridan Poythress in his paper, Science as Allegory, particularly about the claims that the universe is poetry and that science is poetry.
Probabilistic Ways Of Thinking, Garnet Hauger
Probabilistic Ways Of Thinking, Garnet Hauger
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
Events of the tiniest probabilities occur every day, and yet we tend to think of these events as unusual and even miraculous. So what should be a Christian's response to such events? Beginning with some simple concepts of probability, this paper examines the role that chance plays in our lives.
The Development Of Algebraic Structures During The Nineteenth Century, Richard Stout
The Development Of Algebraic Structures During The Nineteenth Century, Richard Stout
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
I remember entering the faculty lounge one day while I was in graduate school and hearing a logician chiding some of the algebraists in the room. He said, "Don't you fellows ever get tired of just plus and times?" His remark, said in jest, had more to it than he may have realized. The fact that there is structure to algebra, represented by plus and times, was a vital discovery in the nineteenth century. It would lead algebra away from a reliance on numbers to a much more formal approach, one in which many different types of algebraic structures could …
A Reaction To The Poythress Paper, Paul J. Zwier
A Reaction To The Poythress Paper, Paul J. Zwier
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
This paper reacts to the metaphor of Vern Sheridan Poythress’s papers, Science as Allegory, exploring what makes a good metaphor and the quality of argument it produces.
Teaching Mathematics Distinctively, Paul J. Zwier
Teaching Mathematics Distinctively, Paul J. Zwier
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
By examining previously used education models, Paul Zwier how he developed his current methods of teaching mathematically distinctively.
An Integration Of Integrations Of Christianity And Mathematics—A Response To Harold Heie, Gene B. Chase
An Integration Of Integrations Of Christianity And Mathematics—A Response To Harold Heie, Gene B. Chase
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
There are three general approaches taken to integrate Christianity and Mathematics: the applicational, the incarnation, and the philosophical. This paper discusses these views and responds to the approaches of Harold Heie.
Reality And Imagination In Mathematics And Religion, Dave Neuhouser
Reality And Imagination In Mathematics And Religion, Dave Neuhouser
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1981
What does either reality or imagination have to do with mathematics? What does either reality or imagination have to do with religion? The thesis of this paper is that mathematics and religion, both, should be closely related to reality and that imagination is essential in both areas. In fact, imagination is essential in our attempts to understand reality.

A Study Of Types Of Presentations & Materials Utilized In Selected Title I Math Programs In Kentucky, Judith White
A Study Of Types Of Presentations & Materials Utilized In Selected Title I Math Programs In Kentucky, Judith White
Masters Theses & Specialist Projects
Two groups of Title I Math teachers, one representing school systems which reported second and third grade student achievement gains of one year or more on the Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills for 1978-79, and one group which reported gains of less than eight months, were surveyed in an effort to identify which methods of presentation and types of materials apparently contributed to the most successful Title I Math programs, in terms of student achievement gains.
A study of survey results indicated that a Title I Math pull-out program served by a teacher in groups of less than ten students …

Space To Play: Games And Activities For Spatial Concepts In Primary School Children, Helen Mansfield (Ed.)
Space To Play: Games And Activities For Spatial Concepts In Primary School Children, Helen Mansfield (Ed.)
Research outputs pre 2011
Spatial concepts are amongst the most important mathematical concepts that young children develop. Ideas of shape, size, and position are part of the young child's mathematical world from the very beginning. The spatial environment of the child is always changing. Objects move around in his environment, just as he moves around and observes them from different positions. The relationships between objects and their relative shapes, sizes and positions are constantly changing.
In our teaching of the Space strand of the primary mathematics syllabus, we are trying to develop in children the understanding and skills associated with spatial relationships that are …
