    POINTERS TO REVIEW

    - GEE 1/ MATHEMATICS, SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY


     Mathematics is considered as the “Mother of all Sciences.”
     Aryabhatt - Father of Indian Mathematics
     Modern definition of Science is a systematic study of the natural world based on
    observation and experimentation.
     Aristotle - first Scientist
     Technology - is the technical means or method used by people to improve their lives and
    environment. Technology is a tool that can help scientists conduct research more
    effectively, leading to new discoveries.
     Mesopotamians, Egyptians, and Greeks are the three (3) ancient civilizations who made a
    significant contributions to the development of Mathematics.
     Pattern is a repeated arrangement of numbers, shapes, colors and so on.
     Patterns allow us to generalize mathematical concepts and create abstract representations.
    It also helps us develop new theories and make connections across different areas of
    mathematics.
     Shape can be defined as the form of an object or its outline, outer
    boundary or outer space.
     A nonagon is a polygon which has nine sides and nine angles.
     Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The
    opposite sides are equal of length and the opposite angles are equal
    of measure.
     Thales of Miletus was hailed as the first true mathematician and his
    theorem states that “an angle inscribed in a semicircle is a right
    angle.”
     Euclid was considered as the “Father of Geometry” and author of
    the book “Elements.”
    Three (3) Main categories of
    Science based on the subject of
    study:
    1. Natural Sciences - it comprises the
    study of the material world.
    2. Social Sciences - the study of people
    and societies.
    3. Formal Sciences - it is the domain of
    mathematics.
    OTHER FAMOUS MATHEMATICIANS AND THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS

    George Cantor founded the set theory

    George Bernard father of linear programming.


    Dantzig
    a French mathematician who is the originator of
    Gaspard Monge descriptive geometry

    Charles Babbage inventor of mechanical calculators


     BEST exemplifies the relationship between Science and Technology is a scientist uses a
    microscope to observe a cell, leading to a new discovery about cell structure.
    Parietal Lobe - this area plays a key role in spatial reasoning, number processing, and
    arithmetic calculations. Damage to the parietal lobe can lead to difficulties with math.
    OTHER FAMOUS MATHEMATICIANS AND THEIR CONTRIBUTIONS

    Neural Networks and Math

    1. Number Sense - refers to an intuitive understanding of


    numbers and their relationships which is fundamental building
    block for mathematical abilities. This is likely related to the
    brain's ability to represent quantities and magnitudes.
    2. Symbolic Representation - As we learn more advanced math,
    our brains develop the ability to represent mathematical
    concepts symbolically, using symbols like numbers, letters,
    and operators.
     Duration is about calculating how long an event lasts which involves subtracting the start
    and end times.
     Personal Finance - Managing your own finances effectively, including budgeting, saving,
    investing, and debt management.
     Budgeting - these involves understanding income and expenses, tracking spending, and
    allocating funds for different categories in order to create a budget.
     Financial Planning is setting financial goals, creating a plan to achieve them, and making
    informed financial decisions.
    Key aspects of number sense:
    1. Quantity Estimation - ability to estimate the approximate number of objects in a
    group without counting them individually. Example is quickly judging wether there
    are more apples in one bowl than another.
    2. Number Ordering - refers in understanding the relative size of numbers and their
    order on a number line. For instance, knowing that 5 is greater than 3 and 10 comes
    after 9.
    3. Number Relationships - about recognizing patterns and relationships between
    numbers, such as knowing that 3 + 2 i the same as 2+3.
    4. Number Flexibility - ability to manipulate numbers mentally such as understanding
    that 10 is the same as 5+5 or that 10-3 is the same as 7.
    5. Number Representation - ability to represent numbers in different ways, such as
    using fingers, objects, or symbols.
    Logical Reasoning: Understanding the building blocks of logical thought,
    including deductive and inductive reasoning, identifying patterns, and
    drawing valid conclusions.
    Problem Decomposition: Breaking down complex problems into smaller,
    more manageable parts to make them easier to understand and solve.
    Abstraction: Identifying the essential elements of a problem and
    representing them in a simplified form, often using mathematical models or
    diagrams.
    Algorithm Design: Developing step-by-step procedures (algorithms) to
    solve problems systematically and efficiently.
