Mathematical proof: from mathematics to school mathematics

Mathematics: Moving from Humor to Creativity

This study aimed to examine the effects of integrating humor into math curriculum on mathematical creativity of sixth grade students in primary school. The current paper reports the results of the quantitative section of a larger study conducted through a mixed methods design. Mathematical creativity of students based on their performance was measured after the implementation of the researcher-...

The trace of realistic mathematics education in the school mathematics in Iran

Abstract: In the late 70's, in reaction to both "New Math" movement in the United States and "mechanistic mathematics education" approach to mathematics education in Netherland, Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) has been introduced by Freudenthal and his colleagues. In this educational approach, Freudenthal considered mathematics as a human activity. Based on this approach, education should...

Mathematical Modeling / Computational Mathematics

My research is focused on mathematical modeling in the interdisciplinary areas of materials science and crystal growth and on development of advanced computational methods for tracking material/fluid surfaces and interfaces. Primarily, I am interested in modeling formation of a micro(nano)structure arrays as a result of the morphological (shape) instabilities of a solid film surfaces, material ...
