Multiple Representation For Understanding Data Structures, Biffah Hancies, Venky Shankararaman, Jose Munoz
Multiple Representation For Understanding Data Structures, Biffah Hancies, Venky Shankararaman, Jose Munoz
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper an approach to enhance the learning of abstract computing concepts by novice students is presented. This approach is based on effective use of multiple visual representations, and it was applied within the domain of linear data structures: array, stack, queue and linked list. A prototype computer-based instructional system called MRUDS (Multiple Representation for Understanding Data Structures) was developed and evaluated. It was found from the evaluation that the three presentation modules namely, analogy, representation and algorithm contributed to the students' learning process, each contributing to and reinforcing the effect of the others.
Metastable States In Classical And Quantum Systems, Mark Makela, Samantha Parmley, Roger Yu
Metastable States In Classical And Quantum Systems, Mark Makela, Samantha Parmley, Roger Yu
All Faculty Scholarship for the College of the Sciences
The classical vibrational metastable states in a one-dimensional two-mass system are investigated experimentally and theoretically via the transmission of a coherent wave packet propagating through the system. The Fourier transform of the vibrational signal recorded in between the masses reveals resonant excitations by the coherent wave packet. The time-resolved spectrum indicates that the lifetime of a metastable state of higher frequency is longer than that of lower frequency, which is in contrast with the quantum mechanical double-barrier system. This study, which is easily accessible to physics majors, also demonstrates quantum resonant tunneling in a very simple classical way.

The Role Of Mathematics In Culture, W. James Bradley
The Role Of Mathematics In Culture, W. James Bradley
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
This paper examines theories of the role of mathematics in culture and seeks to understand how a Christian should view the role of mathematics.
Solomon's Sea And The Biblical Π, Andrew Simoson
Solomon's Sea And The Biblical Π, Andrew Simoson
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
From I Kings 7:23, the apparent diameter and circumference of a circular ring are given as 10 and 30 cubits which suggests that the Biblical value of π is 3 rather a number closer to π. However we recount seven different somewhat whimsical explanations as to why this conclusion is overly-hasty.
Mathematics And Values: Can Philosophy Guide Projects?, Michael H. Veatch
Mathematics And Values: Can Philosophy Guide Projects?, Michael H. Veatch
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
The philosophy of mathematics has provided insight on questions of foundations and mathematical truth; however, it has not been very fruitful in guiding the practice of mathematics. This paper attempts to find points of contact between a Christian worldview and the choice of mathematical projects and methods. Three areas are considered: (i) dubitability in current research, (ii) the intrinsic value of contemporary mathematics to contemporary society, and (iii) the affirmation of human value in the use of mathematics. Finally, a framework for valuing mathematics is proposed as an encouragement to think more deeply about how a Christian might choose a …
The Mathematical Sciences And The Mediator Of Creation, W. David Laverell
The Mathematical Sciences And The Mediator Of Creation, W. David Laverell
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
This article stems from a conviction that while the development of a theistic view of the mathematical sciences is a laudable goal and much to be encouraged, it is incumbent upon us to explore every avenue that might lead to a distinctively Christian perspective. This leads naturally to a consideration of the unique role played by Christ in Creation, and a convenient framework is provided by seeing Christ as Mediator of Creation. We shall discuss the term itself, examine the biblical passages that seem to present the concept, consider the ways these passages have been understood by theologians, and …
Digital Filtering And Smoothing: A Student Simulation Project, Eric Gossett
Digital Filtering And Smoothing: A Student Simulation Project, Eric Gossett
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
A bug tracking problem is used to introduce students to filtering and smoothing real-time data. A predictor-corrector filter/smoother algorithm is developed and a simulation platform is provided so that students can program and test implementations of the filter/smoother. The platform includes the ability to animate the simulation.
The tracking problem: A small computer bug is traveling around the $x-y$ plane trying to avoid detection. We can eliminate the bug if we can produce a reasonably accurate approximation to its trajectory.
We have a bug detecting device which can be pointed at the plane. It can measure the $x$ and $y$ …

Mathematics At Chartres Cathedral, Richard Stout
Mathematics At Chartres Cathedral, Richard Stout
ACMS Conference Proceedings 1997
Having had several opportunities to travel to France, often with groups of students, our trips have usually included a visit to Chartres, especially to visit the magnificent Gothic cathedral that dominates the town. On a recent visit I was again struck by the beauty, majesty and awe that the cathedral inspires. The building not only does a remarkable job of telling Biblical stories and of enclosing a space conducive to worship, it directs one's eyes and one's spirits upward. This is achieved not only by the beautiful stained glass windows and the striking sculptures, but also by the overall design …
