This video helps with this question because intuitively, there should be no way to contain so many mathematical concepts in one sequence. However, this videos proves it possible.

Many math methods are difficult to new learners, and may not work for every student. This relates to question #2 directly because it shows how some mathematical conclusions and methods conflict with our instincts and intuitions as humans. Not only may this be true for the results of the certain math problem, but also for the method of obtaining that information or equation. This article shows how children, the newest learners of each generation, are now being allowed to solve math problems in a variety of ways that better suit their intuitions. This could make the math itself, and the results, more understandable for the learner:  https://theconversation.com/why-teachers-are-letting-students-solve-math-problems-in-lots-of-different-ways-197601 ]]> 2023-03-22 15:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527409022 Pedro and Lohanna: article https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527414591
  • What is meant by the term 'proof' in mathematics, and how is this similar to, or different from what is meant by this term in other areas of knowledge?

    • It helps with the question 1 because it connects what is proof in math to the medicine field

If words are combined together to form a language, can't symbols of math be combined together to form their own language. By watching this video you will be able to understand how math is a language and what exactly the meaning of mathematical symbols are. It breaks down the different components of mathematics as a language and how the cohesively come together. In addition to explaining how math is a language, they also provide valid examples as to how it applies to the real world. This is important when making an argument or case. Once watching the video, one can then compare and contrast the meaning and use of mathematical symbols to the meaning and use of words. Since the video argues that both are a language in their own, it is their components that we must investigate to see how they compare. ]]> 2023-03-22 16:01:19 UTC https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527417268 Black Holes - Bernard https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527420072 There are many different mathematical proofs and concepts that can be used to prove the existence of black holes. Black holes are impossible to see and observe. Thus, mathematics is the only possible way to measure and understand it. Mathematics turns the black hole which would be something invisible to us into something that is measurable. The application of physics allows scientists to gain a grasp of the behavior of those objects by understanding its effects on space and time. ]]> 2023-03-22 16:03:17 UTC https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527420072 Ian and Greg Video https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527421441
  • What is meant by the term 'proof' in mathematics, and how is this similar to, or different from what is meant by this term in other areas of knowledge?

    • This video shows that "proof" in mathmatics can be different than in other areas of knowledge as you need to both reasoning and practical use of the math for it to be confirmed true.

    This article relates to using "proof" as they have used their previous knowledge in order to come to a conclusion, and be able to reuse their previous data in order to predict water flows in forest, in a manner that can be repeated and proven. Although math can be properly used here, there are still many manners that hydrologists cannot measure yet, so they must keep on using mathematics in order to come to a conclusion.]]>     2023-03-22 16:04:26 UTC https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527421630     Pedro And Lohana https://padlet.com/christophertrammel/gwqlvcrh089codqx/wish/2527422257
