چکیده
The nature of the world and workforce around us is changing at a dizzying pace. Astounding scientific and technological advances – most of which rest on fundamental mathematical principles and theories – are creating new ways of working, living and thinking. The challenge for our educational systems is to ensure that all of our children achieve high levels of quantitative literacy. As an international community, it is imperaWorld Mathematical Year 2000: Challenges in Revolutionising Mathematical Teaching in Engineering Education under Complicated Societal Conditions*

A Methodology for Developing a Web-based Factory Simulator for Manufacturing Education
Historically, manufacturing engineering education has focused on teaching mathematical models using simplifying assumptions that can mask the realities of complex manufacturing systems. Recent pedagogical approaches to manufacturing education have focused on developing a more holistic view of the manufacturing enterprise. In this paper, we describe the contents and development methodology of a ...

Education and Work online at: New and unprecedented standards for mathematical and computation literacy have emerged for the nation’s workforce. Generated by the science-intensive and digitally driven global economy, today’s careers in health science, engineering, value added manufacturing, and nano-fabrication require advanced mathematics. The importance of mathematical and computational compe...
متن کامل, Freiburg / CH MATHEMATICAL KNOWLEDGE OF CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS IN THEIR FIRST YEAR OF SCHOOL
This paper is a summary of an empirical study which evaluated the mathematical knowledge and progress of children with special needs in the first year of school. Emphasis was placed on the question “does the teaching method influence progress in mathematical skills?”. Following the results of the study, current approaches to initial mathematical teaching for special education are considered que...
متن کاملMathematical modelling of an annular photocatalytic reactor for methylene blue degradation under UV light irradiation using rGO-ZnO hybrid
The application of heterogeneous photocatalysis in industrial scale has been hindered by a lack of simple mathematical models that can be easily applied to reactor design and scale-up. This work intends to use a simple mathematical model for predicting methylene blue (MB) degradation in a slurry-annular photocatalytic reactor using zinc oxide (ZnO) hybridized with reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-Z...
متن کاملDevelopment of closed-loop supply chain mathematical model (cost-benefit-environmental effects) under uncertainty conditions by approach of genetic algorithm
In the current world, the debate on the reinstatement and reuse of consumer prod-ucts has become particularly important. Since the supply chain of the closed loop is not only a forward flow but also a reverse one; therefore, companies creating integ-rity between direct and reverse supply chain are successful. The purpose of this study is to develop a new mathematical model for closed loop suppl...
