Educational REALMS
Goal is to provide access to information for teaching and learning about science, mathematics, and the environment.
http://www.ericse.org/

Extractions: The U.S. Department of Education required that the official web site of ERIC/CSMEE and all telephone services closed on December 19, 2003. The Clearinghouse already closed permanently on December 31, 2003. We thank you for your support and patronage for the past 36 years. Currently, many of the public domain materials produced by ERIC/CSMEE are available for your browsing or downloading pleasure at the new Educational REALMS Web site: http://www.stemworks.org/ Educational REALMS hopes to pick up where ERIC/CSMEE left off. It is our hope that we will eventually offer many of the same services and resources to anyone interested in science, mathematics, technology, and environmental education. We are staffed by Science Education faculty and graduate students and we are located on the campus of The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH. Since January 2004, the Department of Education has been implementing a reengineering plan for ERIC. The new ERIC mission continues the core function of providing a centralized bibliographic database of journal articles and other published and unpublished education materials. It enhances the database by adding free full text and electronic links to commercial sources and by making it easy to use and up to date.

Indispensability Arguments In The Philosophy Of Mathematics
From the fact that mathematics is indispensable to science, some philosophers have drawn serious metaphysical conclusions. In particular, Quine and Putnam have argued that the indispensability of mathematics to empirical science gives us good reason to believe in the existence of mathematical entities. From the Stanford Encyclopedia.
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/mathphil-indis/

Extractions: AUG One of the most intriguing features of mathematics is its applicability to empirical science. Every branch of science draws upon large and often diverse portions of mathematics, from the use of Hilbert spaces in quantum mechanics to the use of differential geometry in general relativity. It's not just the physical sciences that avail themselves of the services of mathematics either. Biology, for instance, makes extensive use of difference equations and statistics. The roles mathematics plays in these theories is also varied. Not only does mathematics help with empirical predictions, it allows elegant and economical statement of many theories. Indeed, so important is the language of mathematics to science, that it is hard to imagine how theories such as quantum mechanics and general relativity could even be stated without employing a substantial amount of mathematics. but this one is by far the most influential, and so in what follows I'll concentrate on it.
Earliest Known Uses Of Some Of The Words Of Mathematics

Extractions: Earliest Known Uses of Some of the Words of Mathematics LEFT TO RIGHT: James Joseph Sylvester, who introduced the words matrix, discriminant, invariant, totient, and Jacobian; Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, who introduced the words variable, constant, function, abscissa, parameter, coordinate and perhaps derivative; who introduced the terms real number and imaginary number; Sir William Rowan Hamilton, who introduced the terms vector, scalar, tensor, associative, and quaternion; and John Wallis, who introduced the terms induction, interpolation, continued fraction, mantissa, and hypergeometric series. A B C D ... Sources These pages attempt to show the first uses of various words used in mathematics. Research for these pages is ongoing, and a citation should not be assumed to be the earliest use unless it is indicated as such.

IMA: Careers With Mathematics
From the IMA (UK), some of the many sources of information about the options available.
http://www.ima.org.uk/mathematics/careers.htm

Extractions: The subject area of mathematics is very broad and its use underpins much of Science, Engineering and Technology and increasingly in Finance and Commerce. Career opportunities are available through industry, business, the private and public sectors, with large employers and in small organisations. Many mathematicians are also at the heart of Education as teachers, lecturers and university researchers. This section of the web site is designed to provide key information, case studies and useful web links associated with careers paths such as taken by IMA members. It is anticipated that helpful information is obtainable to people at various ages of their life; those taking mathematics at school or college, those thinking of taking mathematics at university, or mathematics graduates looking for a first job or seeking a change.
