Integrating Writing and Calculation into One Process

By Emilyn R. Offemaria

Teacher III


Mathematics has made it possible for humans to anticipate natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wildfires, and landslides, amongst others, despite the fact that it is practically difficult to predict the magnitude, position, and timing of natural hazards. Through the application of mathematical methods, we construct models that correspond to what we are able to observe and measure in the real world.


Mathematicians play an essential role in this process because they employ a set of equations to describe the environment while taking environmental factors such as temperature, pressure, and humidity into consideration. In order to investigate the likely future average conditions, global circulation models provide a description of the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere. Mathematics is a collection of knowledge and procedures that has been accumulated over the course of history and all around the world as a result of the contributions of scholars. We are able to gather designs, calculate relationships, and make predictions about the future thanks to this technology. We obtained mathematics through the use of the world since numbers are helpful in comprehending it. Regular mathematics sheds light on these linkages and the outcomes that are most likely to occur, so revealing the interconnectivity of the world.


The world is limited by mathematics, which is the outcome of much inquiry, perception, and error correction. Strangely, this technique continues today. After discovering the secret component of all marvels, everything works. Mathematics is a collection of knowledge and techniques accumulated by scholars worldwide over time. We can gather designs, calculate relationships, and anticipate the future with this technology. Since numbers help us understand the world, we learned mathematics from it. Regular mathematics illuminates these linkages and the most likely outcomes, exposing the world’s interconnectedness. Mathematical research can improve engineering science worldwide.With the help of insights and probability, we are able to make an estimate of the number of lives that have been lost as a result of earthquakes, conflicts, and other global catastrophes. Additionally, it is able to forecast the development of protists, the spread of ideas, and the possible repopulation of species that were formerly endangered.


Through the application of mathematical methods, we construct models that correspond to what we are able to observe and measure in the real world. This process of calculating numbers requires not only an understanding of mathematics but also the ability to appropriately write it down. Individuals who are employed in the field of mathematics actually devote a considerable portion of their time to writing. In order for a mathematician to be able to make a contribution to the greater body of mathematical knowledge, she must be able to communicate her ideas in a way that is also comprehensible to other individuals. Therefore, the ability to write correctly is the same as the ability to solve equations when it comes to the importance of mathematical skills.


Importance of Mathematical Writing. A mastery of the ability to create mathematical explanations that are easy to understand is also vital for individuals who are not mathematicians. If we continue to take math classes in college, we will eventually acquire a greater understanding of mathematics than the majority of other individuals. In the future, when we will be required to utilize your mathematical knowledge, you may be compelled to explain our thought process to another person (such as your boss, a co-worker, or an elected official), and it is quite possible that this other person will have a lower level of mathematical understanding than you do. Gaining the ability to articulate mathematical concepts in a way that is easily understood can help us grow in your career.


The act of writing thorough explanations of mathematical concepts can enhance both our knowledge and our comprehension of the mathematical concepts that you come across. In order to put a concept down on paper, great consideration and attention are required. As a result, the possibility of achieving accuracy in mathematical writing is increased by writing it clearly and carefully. The process of writing will assist you in learning and remembering the subjects in conducting research on in mathematics lesson. For the same reason, simply writing down our final conclusions in an assignment will not be sufficient for a math class at the university level. The act of writing mathematics should not be confused with the concept of “showing your work.” We are not going to show that you have completed the homework by writing arithmetic papers. To demonstrate proficiency in mathematics, you will instead write. We can indicate that you have spent some time performing computations by providing a list of calculations that does not include any context or explanation. On the other hand, a list of calculations that does not include any explanations leaves out ideas. All of the concepts are mathematical. If there is no writing or explanation on a page of computations, then there is no mathematical content. By adhering to the principles of grammar, good writing is achieved. In addition, this is true when it comes to producing mathematical papers! It is important to ensure that you utilize proper grammar and spelling while you are writing in a math lesson. It is important that writing is both clear and professional. Under no circumstances should you make use of any acronyms or shorthand forms that are not in accordance with the rules of conventional writing. Mathematical writers often integrate sentences into paragraphs in their writing. It is true that paragraphs are essential. It is not entertaining to read a paper that is three pages long and only contains one paragraph. On the other hand, the utilization of formulae is one of the characteristics that sets mathematical writing apart from other types of writing techniques. It is possible that we will be surprised to learn that equations and formulas in a mathematical paper adhere to the same conventional grammatical norms that apply to words. This is something that we may not have been aware of before.
