Download or read book Against the Current written by Guillermo E. Rosado Haddock and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present collection of seventeen papers, most of them already published in international philosophical journals, deals both with issues in the philosophy of logic, the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of language and epistemology. The first part contains critical assessments and somewhat deviant renderings of the work of two seminal philosophers, Frege and Husserl, as well as of the young Carnap and Kripke. The second part contains analyses of central issues in the philosophy of logic, the philosophy of mathematics and semantics, including arguments on behalf of Platonism in the philosophy of mathematics, a defense of second-order logic, a new definition of analyticity, a sketch of a semantics for mathematical statements and a critique of Kripke’s possible world semantics for modal logic.

Download or read book Mathematical Modelling Programs in Latin America written by Milton Rosa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the unique, sophisticated, and rigorous study of mathematics in Latin America developed over centuries of cultural exchange between Europe, North, and South America. More specifically, the book explores the tradition of mathematical modelling, introduced a century ago. This modelling was adapted to assist members of distinct communities to draw information about their own realities through the elaboration of representations, which generate mathematical knowledge that deals with creativity and invention. The book provides empirical evidence that a category of mathematical modelling developed in Latin America assesses the horizontal and reciprocal relations between mathematics (school/non-school contexts) and the real world. These relations provide an epistemological and ontological change, where mathematical knowledge of the others is recognized on a horizontal plane. Further, they oblige mathematics teachers and students to understand as a community of knowledge that builds their own mathematical categories of their environment governed by the reciprocal relationships between academic knowledge and functional knowledge. The dimensions of the relationships make up a frame of reference that guides educational change in mathematics. The book presents an inquiry-based approach of three Latin American modelling programs: ethnomodelling, transversality of knowledge, and reasoned decision-making. Each one, with its respective theoretical and methodological foundations related to ethnomathematics and mathematical modelling, socioepistemology, and the attribution of meaning to learning. Undoubtedly, the three mathematical modelling programs, independently, provide educational gains, each with its levels of specificity and loyal to its philosophical, theoretical, and methodological principles. However, the book places them together, organized by axes, to define a corpus of mathematical knowledge that envisions profound educational change through the development of different approaches of mathematical modelling. The authors of the 18 chapters in this book, who represent the diversity of Latin America, are from eight countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, Honduras, and Mexico. They were invited to share their ideas, perspectives, and discuss investigations that represent a rich sample of three Latin American perspectives on mathematical modelling.

Download or read book Ongoing Advancements in Philosophy of Mathematics Education written by Maria Aparecida Viggiani Bicudo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-01 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ongoing Advancements in Philosophy of Mathematics Education approaches the philosophy of mathematics education in a forward movement, analyzing, reflecting, and proposing significant contemporary themes in the field of mathematics education. The theme that gives life to the book is philosophy of mathematics education understood as arising from the intertwining between philosophy of mathematics and philosophy of education which, through constant analytical and reflective work regarding teaching and learning practices in mathematics, is materialized in its own discipline, philosophy of mathematics education. This is the field of investigation of the chapters in the book. The chapters are written by an international cohort of authors, from a variety of countries, regions, and continents. Some of these authors work with philosophical and psychological foundations traditionally accepted by Western civilization. Others expose theoretical foundations based on a new vision and comprising innovative approaches to historical and present-day issues in educational philosophy. The final third of the book is devoted to these unique and innovative research stances towards important and change resistant societal topics such as racism, technology gaps, or the promotion of creativity in the field of mathematics education.

Book excerpt: Comprar edición impresa: https://laemboscadura.com/tienda/realidad-y-substancia-ed-impresa/ Nada, ser, esencia, razón, materia, forma, espacio, tiempo, causa, accidente, necesidad, ánimo Reedición de Realidad y Substancia (1985), el tratado de metafísica de Antonio Escohotado, en formato impreso. Quien recorre la árida aventura del saber ontológico no se encuentra al término con la tierra prometida, aunque sí con una orientación adaptada a territorios sin mapa. Tras topar y topar con las grandes palabras —tan opacas y transparentes a la vez, tan generosas y tan parcas— habla desde su propio sentido, sin la hipoteca de adherirse a alguna doctrina. De ahí que la vieja brújula, ese Norte frágil, hecho de miedo al miedo y aprendizaje sin enseñanza, la memoria —canonizada como forma superior de la substancia por el sujeto—, sea ya toda entera como un poema en el ánimo de la nostalgia. El saber no lucha por olvidar, y se goza en la nostalgia también, donde reconoce la experiencia de su soledad más pura. Pero el sentido ya no necesita el recuerdo, que ensarta las cuentas aisladas del ahora en un yo, ni se interrumpe cuando la memoria cesa.

Download or read book Mathematical Reasoning of Children and Adults written by Alina Galvão Spinillo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adopts an interdisciplinary approach to investigate the development of mathematical reasoning in both children and adults and to show how understanding the learner’s cognitive processes can help teachers develop better strategies to teach mathematics. This contributed volume departs from the interdisciplinary field of psychology of mathematics education and brings together contributions by researchers from different fields and disciplines, such as cognitive psychology, neuroscience and mathematics education. The chapters are presented in the light of the three instances that permeate the entire book: the learner, the teacher, and the teaching and learning process. Some of the chapters analyse the didactic challenges that teachers face in the classroom, such as how to interpret students' reasoning, the use of digital technologies, and their knowledge about mathematics. Other chapters examine students' opinions about mathematics, and others analyse the ways in which students solve situations that involve basic and complex mathematical concepts. The approaches adopted in the description and interpretation of the data obtained in the studies documented in this book point out the limits, the development, and the possibilities of students' thinking, and present didactic and cognitive perspectives to the learning scenarios in different school settings. Mathematical Reasoning of Children and Adults: Teaching and Learning from an Interdisciplinary Perspective will be a valuable resource for both mathematics teachers and researchers studying the development of mathematical reasoning in different fields, such as mathematics education, educational psychology, cognitive psychology, and developmental psychology.

Book excerpt: Aunque la realidad es mucho más profunda. El potencial cuántico es lo que permite la interconexión y forma el sistema en el que se desenvuelve toda la situación conjunta. A partir de experimentos constatados en el subterfugio de las partículas elementales, se concluye tajantemente, que todo se halla interrelacionado con todo, que no hay nada separado de nada, que la filosofía nunca concluirá nada, y que todo lo que percibimos, más allá de lo que nos hagan creer nuestros sentidos y nuestra mente, no es sino la forma o expresión que nos remite a una realidad primordial que algunos no dudan en nombrar como conciencia. Una conciencia que se origina en el único cerebro que la naturaleza nos suministró con carencias, un gigantesco resorte que absorbe y disipa energía, y vibra en su propia frecuencia de ineficiencia, y para su completamiento, precisa con urgencia la intervención de la ciencia, que es la única que puede proveerlo, extranatura, de un episentido.

This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LA FILOSOFÍA EXISTENCIALISTA "Uno de los pensamientos que en este momento está conmoviendo al mundo civilizado es la de la Filosofía Existencialista. No es una simple especulación de la inteligencia, ni tampoco una lucubración de aula o de gabinete solamente; tiene su raigambre en la vida social, en el momento histórico. Ciertamente, la historia la está forjando y los pensadores que la formulan, principalmente de Europa, ven en ella una solución al desaliento que está destrozando las almas después de las guerras catastróficas que han deshecho tantas obras de belleza y anulado tantas vidas." Adalberto García de Mendoza (1948)

Download or read book Apolog a de un matem tico written by Godfrey Harold Hardy and published by Capitán Swing Libros. This book was released on 2019-12-23 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: G.H. Hardy fue uno de los mejores matemáticos de este siglo, reconocido entre sus contemporáneos como un "matemático auténtico, el más puro entre los puros". Esta Apología, escrita emotivamente cuando su poder creativo matemático estaba ya en su ocaso, es un relato brillante y cautivador de las matemáticas consideradas como mucho más que una ciencia, que nos proporciona una de las mejores visiones de cómo discurre la mente de un matemático en pleno proceso de trabajo. De hecho, este libro está ampliamente considerado como una de las mejores penetraciones en la mente de un matemático profesional, escrita para profanos. En sus páginas, Hardy defiende el valor de la matemática teórica más abstracta y la belleza como valor indispensable de las buenas teorías matemáticas por encima de otros valores como su aplicabilidad o relevancia para los problemas de física. Cuando fue publicada en inglés por primera vez, Graham Greene la aclamó, junto con los cuadernos de notas de Henry James, como "la mejor narración de lo que representa el ser un artista creativo". El prólogo de C. P. Snow a la edición inglesa proporciona algunas claves de la vida de Hardy, incluyendo las anécdotas relativas a su colaboración con el matemático indio Ramanujan, sus aforismos y su pasión por el críquet. Este es un relato único de la fascinación por las matemáticas y de uno de sus exponentes más convincentes de los tiempos modernos.
