چکیده

For logical thinking learners, it is important to learn problem solving formally and intuitively. Homotopy which is modern mathematics combines algebra and geometry together. Homotopy gives the most abstract level of explanation or the most basic invariant which is the most required characteristics for logical thinking. The homotopy lifting property gives good explanation of inductive reasoning. The homotopy extension property, which is dual to the homotopy lifting property, provides a good tool for deductive reasoning. As homotopy combining algebra with geometry, it provides intuitive explanation with informative figures. This paper shows how puzzle-based learning is explained mathematically and intuitively using these properties.

Example of Business Applications Using the Numerical Value and Exponential Calculation of the Cellular Data System

In the era of cloud computing, data is processed in a “Cloud”, and data and its dependencies between systems or functions progress and change constantly within the cloud, as a user’s requirements change. Such information worlds are called cyberworlds. We need a more powerful mathematical background which can model the cyberworlds in the "cloud" as they are. We consider the Incrementally Modular...

Cellular Theory - A Basic Model for Integrating Real - and Cyber Spaces

Cyberworlds such as e-business, e-financing and e-manufacturing spanning in the integrated spaces of realand cyberspaces have been serving as the infrastructure of the fast evolving modern real worlds. Given an integrated space, it is automatically decomposed into a disjoint union of equivalence classes by finding its invariant via an equivalence relation. Equivalence relations characterize the...

A suggested Motivational Method for Teaching Scientific Terminology, With a Practical Example

Using a reductionist approach, the motivational method for teaching scientific terminology aims at breaking down terms and their definitions into separate components, i.e. morphemes and their semantic features, rather than establishing a connection between terms and their definitions as holistic units. In other words, the ultimate goal of this method is achieving “semantic motivation,” (as oppo...
