Educational Resources in this
website, for
teachers of MATHEMATICS and COMPUTER SCIENCE
This page supplements the resources-and-tips you'll find
in the
Sitemap for Whole-Person
Education which says, "You want ideas
that will help you in general [these
ideas are in the sitemap-page]
and also in a specific area you're teaching," as in this page
and
in the analogous resource-pages for other areas.
RESOURCES — Actual and Potential
Jack Haas
(another website editor for ASA) has a Topics Page for Mathematics
and Christian Faith with "papers that treat
various aspects of mathematics, computer science and related fields from
a Christian
perspective."
Currently there isn't much about math in this part
of the website (for Whole-Person Education) although later — but probably
not until early 2009 (do you want to help?) — I'll
make
pages that describe
(and link to) interesting web-resources about a variety of topics: Mathematical Thinking
Skills
plus math
as a field (with its own exciting questions
to explore) and a tool that is useful in science and engineering,
for analyzing data and discovering patterns in nature; powerful modern
computers that increase the possibilities for numerical analysis (imagine
Kepler with a computer!) in fields like bioinformatics, and number-crunching "approximation
models" in a variety of fields ranging from meteorology and engineering
to bioinformatics and quantum chemistry; chaos theory; computer
science, information systems, and artificial
intelligence. {some interesting
resources}
Also,
Science-and-Religion for Understanding & Personal
Faith can be useful for teachers (and their students) in all areas,
and a SITEMAP will help you explore the website for Whole-Person Education (with resources for Effective Education and Science-Theology Interactions, using a Multiple-Views Approach) and other parts of the ASA Website, plus TIPS FOR TEACHERS.
You're an expert in your areas, so...
if you want to help us improve our website — for
example, if you have suggestions to make it better, or you've discovered
a great web-resource and you tell us about it so we can share it with
others — your assistance will be greatly appreciated. How
can you help?
This website for Whole-Person Education has TWO KINDS OF LINKS: an ITALICIZED LINK keeps you inside a page, moving you to another part of it, a NON-ITALICIZED LINK opens another page. Both keep everything inside this window, so your browser's BACK-button will always take you back to where you were. |
Here
are tips-pages (to supplement plus useful ideas for teachers and students in all
