An introduction to ordinary differential equations by computer algebra-systems
(Jacob, G. (Hrsg.), 1993)
We report on an elementary course in ordinary differential equations (odes) for students in engineering sciences. The course is also intended to become a self-study package for odes and is is based on several interactive computer lessons using REDUCE and MATHEMATICA . The aim of the course is not to do Computer Algebra (CA) by example or to use it for doing classroom examples. The aim ist to teach and to learn mathematics by using CA-systems.

The problem of the graphic artist
(Blum, Werner (Hrsg.), 1989)
'The problem of the graphic artist' is a small example of applying elementary mathematics (divisibility of natural numbers) to a real problem which we ourselves have actually experienced. It deals with the possibilities for partitioning a sheet of paper into strips. In this contribution we report on a teaching unit in grade 6 as well as on informal tests with students in school and university. Finally we analyse this example methodologically, summarise our observations with pupils and students, and draw some didactical ...

Einige Ergebnisse von vergleichenden Untersuchungen in England und Deutschland zum Lehren und Lernen von Mathematik in Realitätsbezügen
(1993)
In der Arbeit werden einige Resultate von vergleichenden empirischen Untersuchungen zu unterschiedlichen Konzeptionen eines realitätsbezogenen Mathematikunterrichts, wie sie in England und Deutschland häufig vertreten werden, dargestellt. Bei diesen Untersuchungen werden in verschiedenen Fallstudien, die u.a. auch strukturelle Unterschiede zwischen den Bildungssystemen in England und Deutschland und den zugrundeliegenden Erziehungsphilosophien berücksichtigen, Auswirkungen dieser Konzeptionen auf die Einstellung der ...

Analysis of applications and of conceptions for an application-oriented mathematics instruction
(Berry, J. S., 1984)
In connection with the (revived) demand for considering applications in the teaching of mathematics, various schemata or lists of criteria have been developed since the end of the sixties, which set up requirements about closeness to the real world or about the type of mathematics being used, and which have made it possible to analyze the available applications in their light. After having stated the problem (in section 1), we present (in section 2) a sketch of some of the best known of these and of some earlier ...

Anwendungsorientierter Mathematikunterricht in der didaktischen Diskussion
(1985)
In dieser Arbeit werden einige didaktische Aspekte des Themas "Anwendungen" im Mathematikunterricht zusammenfassend dargestellt. Meine Diskussion beschränkt sich dabei im wesentlichen auf den gymnasialen Mathematikunterricht in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland; vieles gilt ähnlich aber auch für andere Schulformen bzw. für andere Länder.

Applied mathematical problem solving, modelling, applications, and links to other subjects
(1991)
The paper will consist of three parts. In part I we shall present some background considerations which are necessary as a basis for what follows. We shall try to clarify some basic concepts and notions, and we shall collect the most important arguments (and related goals) in favour of problem solving, modelling and applications to other subjects in mathematics instruction. In the main part II we shall review the present state, recent trends, and prospective lines of development, both in empirical or theoretical ...

Preformal proving: examples and reflections
(1991)
The starting point of our reflections is a classroom situation in grade 12 in which it was to be proved intuitively that non-trivial solutions of the differential equation f' = f have no zeros. We give a working definition of the concept of preformal proving, as well as three examples of preformal proofs. Then we furnish several such proofs of the aforesaid fact, and we analyse these proofs in detail. Finally, we draw some conclusions for mathematics in school and in teacher training.

Applications and modelling in mathematics teaching
(1991)
The aim of this paper is a comprehensive presentation of some important basic and general aspects of the topic applications and modelling, with emphasis on the secondary school level. Owing to the review character of this paper, some overlap with the survey paper Blum and Niss (1989) for ICME-6 in Budapest is inevitable. The paper will consist of three parts. In part 1, I shall try to clarify some basic concepts and remind the reader of a few application and modelling examples suitable for teaching. In part 2, I shall ...
