Trends in Mathematics: How they could Change Education?
Mathematical activity has changed a lot in the last 50 years. Some of these changes, like the use of computers, are very visible and are being implemented in mathematical education quite extensively. There are other, more subtle trends that may not be so obvious. We discuss some of these trends and how they could, or should, influence the future of mathematical education.
متن کاملIllusions of causality: how they bias our everyday thinking and how they could be reduced
Illusions of causality occur when people develop the belief that there is a causal connection between two events that are actually unrelated. Such illusions have been proposed to underlie pseudoscience and superstitious thinking, sometimes leading to disastrous consequences in relation to critical life areas, such as health, finances, and wellbeing.

متن کاملHow Slowing Senescence Could Change Life Expectancy
Mortality decline has historically been a result of reductions in the level of mortality at all ages. The slope of mortality increase with age has been remarkably stable. A number of leading researchers on aging, however, suggest that the next revolution of longevity increase will be the result of slowing down the rate of aging. In this paper, we show mathematically how varying the pace of sene...
متن کاملWhat ain’t mathematics education?!
Abstract: In 1996 at the first Iranian Mathematics Education Conference (IMEC1) that was held in Isfahan. I obliged myself as a mathematics educator, to inform the mathematics community at large by presenting a paper entitled “what is mathematics education?” to pave the way for the establishment of the master program of mathematics education in Iran. Now, after 16 years, we need to reflect on t...
