8. Course Description This course deals with nature of mathematics, appreciation of its practical,
intellectual, and aesthetic dimensions and application of mathematical tools in
daily life.
The course begins with an introduction to the nature of mathematics as an
exploration of patterns (in nature and the environment) and as application of
inductive and deductive reasoning. By exploring these topics, students are
encouraged to go beyond the typical understanding of mathematics as merely a
set of formulas but as a source of aesthetics in patterns of nature, for example,
and a rich language in itself (and of science) governed by logic and reasoning.
The course proceeds to survey ways in which mathematics provides a tool for
understanding and dealing with various aspects of present-day living, such as
managing personal finances, making social choices, appreciating geometric
designs, understanding codes used in data transmission and security, and
dividing limited resources fairly. These aspects will provide opportunities for
actually doing mathematics I a broad range of exercises that bring out the
various dimensions of mathematics as a way of knowing, and test the students’
understanding and capacity.
