Mammalogy At Texas Tech University: A Historical Perspective, Lisa C. Bradley, John R. Suchecki, Brian R. Amman, Joel G. Brant, Hugh H. Genoways, L. Rex Mcaliley, Robert J. Baker, Francisca Mendez-Harclerode, Robert D. Bradley Sep 2005

Mammalogy At Texas Tech University: A Historical Perspective, Lisa C. Bradley, John R. Suchecki, Brian R. Amman, Joel G. Brant, Hugh H. Genoways, L. Rex Mcaliley, Robert J. Baker, Francisca Mendez-Harclerode, Robert D. Bradley

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

The mammalogy program at Texas Tech University officially was established in 1962, when Robert L. Packard joined the faculty of the Department of Biological Sciences. As the institution's first mammalogist, Packard took the initiative to develop a strong program of mammalian research and education. Influenced by the successful program built by his mentor, E. Raymond Hall, at the University of Kansas, Packard modeled similar goals for Texas Tech University. Those goals included a strong emphasis on both undergraduate and graduate education and research, with several mammalogy faculty members, and the establishment and growth of a large and active mammal collection.


Object Information Repository In A Christian Theory Of Technology, Longy O. Anyanwu Jun 2005

Object Information Repository In A Christian Theory Of Technology, Longy O. Anyanwu

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

It has not been easy to formulate a stable Christian theory of technology. Nonetheless, some ideas and Christian theories of technology have been fielded by a handful of distinguished Christian scientists and technology experts. Although some of these ideas and theories are substantively at variance, others have sizeable common base. Important, though, is the seeming agreement on the visualization of technology as an object with embedded values and information. With object information repository as the primary focus, this study, therefore, attempts to provoke the consideration of a possible synthesis and agreement on the foundational essence of Christian theory of technology …


The Five Orders Of Ignorance: Knowledge, Ignorance, And The Nature Of Software, Phillip Armour Jun 2005

The Five Orders Of Ignorance: Knowledge, Ignorance, And The Nature Of Software, Phillip Armour

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

Software is not a product, it is a medium in which we store knowledge. As simple as this idea seems, the consequences of it are quite significant. If software is not a product, then software development is not a product of production activity, despite the common practice of managing it as such. Most organizations believe that job of software developers is to build a system that we then ship to a customer. It is not. The system we build and ship to the customer is actually the by-product of the real activity which is learning. Software development is the activity …


Mathematics As Poesis: A Preliminary Project Report, Sam Stueckle, Jeremy Case, Ken Constantine, Troy Riggs Jun 2005

Mathematics As Poesis: A Preliminary Project Report, Sam Stueckle, Jeremy Case, Ken Constantine, Troy Riggs

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

This paper talks about the various viewpoints of mathematics, beginning with classical perspectives and ending with the idea of poesis, or the theology of math as the art of making.


Integrating Catholic And Marianist Historical Perspectives In A Mathematics Coruse For Elementary Education Majors, Mary Wagner-Krankel Jun 2005

Integrating Catholic And Marianist Historical Perspectives In A Mathematics Coruse For Elementary Education Majors, Mary Wagner-Krankel

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

St. Mary's University in San Antonio recently reaffirmed their distinctive nature as a Catholic university promoting the Marianist tradition. This new affirmation is in response to the smaller number of Marianists serving in teaching and administrative positions on campus. Faculty have been encouraged to explore new ways to integrate Catholic and Marianist values and historical perspectives in their teaching and research. I will discuss some major Catholic mathematicians and some classroom activities that I developed for the course MT3304- Mathematics for the Elementary Teacher.

Does The Success Of Mathematics Defeat Naturalism?, Russell W. Howell

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

The Artificial Gravity Pitch, Andrew Simoson Jun 2005

The Artificial Gravity Pitch, Andrew Simoson

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

Toss a ball into the air; we analyze and contrast the resultant trajectories when standing both on the Little Prince’s Asteroid B-612 of 1943 and in Arthur C. Clark’s rotating space ship Discovery of 2001.


Explicit Null Space Of Discrete Laplacian, Hanna Vanderzee Jun 2005

Explicit Null Space Of Discrete Laplacian, Hanna Vanderzee

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

For a given partial differential equation, such as Poisson’s equation in two dimensions, stipulating the null-space component of the solution is sometimes a useful alternative to specifying boundary conditions in order to determine a unique solution. To implement this approach computationally, we need a sparse and well-conditioned representation of the null space of the relevant differential operator. We discuss how the null-space method works and present an explicit formula for generating a sparse null basis for a uniform, finite-difference discretization of Laplacian operator on the unit square. The formula makes use of a triangular array which has the large Schroeder …


Artificial Intelligence: Can We Create Machines In Our Own Image?, Derek C. Shuurman Jun 2005

Artificial Intelligence: Can We Create Machines In Our Own Image?, Derek C. Shuurman

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) leads to many questions about what it means to be human. Some researchers claim that inevitably computers will reach a certain threshold of complexity that will enable them to “think” and artificial consciousness will emerge. This speculation, taken a step further, leads some to believe that computer technology will eventually set humans free from the frailty of their bodies and enable them to achieve immortality. Underlying these claims is a reductionistic philosophy about what it means to be human and how one approaches the mind-body problem. Ever since the fall people have wanted to …


Integration Of Faith, Learning, And Christian Vocation With First-Year Mathematics Majors, Doug Phillippy, Angela Hare Jun 2005

Integration Of Faith, Learning, And Christian Vocation With First-Year Mathematics Majors, Doug Phillippy, Angela Hare

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

The mission of Messiah College is "to educate men and women toward maturity of intellect, character, and Christian faith, in preparation for lives of service, leadership and reconciliation in church and society". Therefore, as faculty in the Mathematical Sciences Department at this college, how we build maturity in our students, not only a mature mathematical intellect, but also maturity of character and Christian faith, reflects our commitment to the mission of the College. Further, our departmental mission statement includes the objective "to challenge students to live out their faith in their vocation as they become servant leaders in society, church, …


Writing Math Lessons That Integrate Christian Beliefs: The Kuyers Institute Grant Project, Dave Klanderman, Gary Talsma Jun 2005

Writing Math Lessons That Integrate Christian Beliefs: The Kuyers Institute Grant Project, Dave Klanderman, Gary Talsma

ACMS Conference Proceedings 2005

In this paper, we describe multiple math lessons designed to incorporate a Christian perspective. A total of nine lessons, some with materials for multiple class sessions, will soon be published by the Kuyers Institute. These lessons are appropriate for use at the middle school and high school level.
