Color Computer Graphics As Applied To Introductory Calculus Instruction, Kathy B. Windhorst, Ralph E. Lee

Computer Science Technical Reports

The use of computer graphics to support and enhance the presentation of introductory calculus concepts is described.

Computer graphics provides more accurate graph sketching, consistent presentations and the ability to develop mathematical models incrementally. The addition of extensive use of color aids even more, adding contrast, color keying, dimensionality, and interest to an illustration.

Ten lessons have been designed, developed, and evaluated. They employ a set of subroutines which interface to the NBC APC microcomputer graphics software. These lessons as developed and evaluated may be used interactively in the classroom or by individuals, or noninteractively in the classroom by the …

Using Mathematical Concepts To Illustrate Scriptural And Spiritual Ideas, Robert Brabenec

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1983

Christian mathematics faculty and students respond in differing ways to this idea of applying mathematics to Scripture, and vice-versa. Mathematics is man-made, while Scripture is inspired by God, so they should be disjoint entities. However, it is well known that the Scripture used analogies of familiar human objects and ideas in order to explain spiritual ideas. This paper discusses various mathematical concepts and how they illustrate Scriptural and spiritual ideas.

The Activitiy And Application Of Mathematics, R. S. D. Thomas

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1983

There are four so-called philosophies of mathematics that I regard as totally discredited, formalism, intuitionism, logicism, and Platonism. It is a common feature of the ism philosophies of mathematics that they do not take the application of mathematics very seriously. This paper examines a view of mathematics that takes applications seriously.

Arrogance And Humility In The Philosophy Of Mathematics, James Murdock

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1983

This paper explores the philosophical, sociological, and theological questions related to the field of mathematics and whether or not it is ethical to pursue when its discoveries are used for evil.

Mathematics: The Loss Of Certainty, Calvin Jongsma

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1983

Morris Kline was a contentious mathematician and author, documenting (as he saw it) both the deficiencies of mid-twentieth-century reformist trends in mathematics education and formalist views of the foundations (and practice) of mathematics. This brief introduction to a discussion of Kline's 1980 book and its mixed reception by the mathematics community provides a context for assessing his ideas as part of his overall views on the nature of mathematics.

A Comparative Study Of Christian Mathematical Realism And Its Humanistic Alternatives, Paul Zwier

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1983

This paper explores what sort of stance a Christian should have on important mathematical questions such as realism.

A Fourth Conference on Mathematics from a Christian Perspective

Edited by Robert L. Brabenec, Wheaton College

A Comparative Study Of Christian Mathematical Realism And Its Humanistic Alternatives, Paul Zwier

ACMS Journal 2004

This paper addresses the growing popularity of views of mathematics that see it primarily as a social entity and that reject Platonism. It contrasts two Christian realist philosophies - those of Alvin Plantinga and Vernon Poythress - with the secular perspective of Philip Davis and Reuben Hersch. It affirms the insight of Davis and Hersch that mathematics is indeed a social entity. However, it argues that belief in God enables a fuller understanding of mathematics - one that accounts for the apparent transcendence of mathematics and its power to explain concepts in the physical world.

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.

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.
