Can Mathematical Methods Yield Theological Truth?, Jan De Koning May 1991

Can Mathematical Methods Yield Theological Truth?, Jan De Koning

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1991

This paper discusses the negative impact mathematical methods in theology can have on the church by looking specifically at Arminius and Voetius, Dutch theologians living in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century. Both Arminius and Voetius used mathematical methodology, although they came to different conclusions. I think their differences were due to their different worldviews, which in turn were fundamentally influenced by their upbringing. Both theologians, however, made the same mistake with their methodology and the church split because of that mistake.


How Has Christian Theology Furthered Mathematics?, Gene B. Chase May 1991

How Has Christian Theology Furthered Mathematics?, Gene B. Chase

ACMS Conference Proceedings 1991

In revising my Bibliography of Christianity and Mathematics to include material prior to the 20th century, it is difficult to know what to include and what to exclude, since Christian presuppositions informed much scholarship in a vague, cultural sort of way. This paper is a first cut at attempting to narrow down candidates for that Bibliography by looking for specific ways in which Christian theology has furthered mathematics.

Composing Math Education In The Information Age: A Song Of Change, Camille Baker Jan 1990

Composing Math Education In The Information Age: A Song Of Change, Camille Baker

Graduate Student Independent Studies

This research describes what happened when a teacher implemented change directed toward a relevant math curriculum and effective pedagogy which address present day needs. The assessment of these needs includes an investigation of today's reform literature and the nature of mathematics, along with the history of education and cognitive theory of the 1900's.
