The toolbox of algebraic manipulations that students traditionally learn to use in second-year calculus is not a good match for many applications in other disciplines, such as physics.  Mastery of electromagnetism, for example, requires a geometric understanding of vector fields and their derivatives.

Furthermore, most mathematical modeling requires a robust understanding of the relationship between discrete data and its idealization as smooth mathematical objects.  These applications require students to have rich concept images of differentiation and integration that go well beyond what is typically taught in second-year calculus.

This talk describes efforts at Oregon State University to help students master the use of geometric reasoning in such physical and geometric contexts, in both mathematics and physics courses.  Several examples will be presented where language differences between disciplines lead to student difficulties, as will some of the methods and tools that we have developed to address them.

UiO:Energy and Environment is funding the development of Thematic Research Groups (TRG). Selected TRGs are expected to make substantial contributions to sustainability transitions by addressing challenges related to energy, climate and environment. We invite all interested researchers to a first information meeting. There will be a second information meeting and matchmaking event August 29.
