Abstract:
This essay explores the significance of traditional Chinese mathematics culture and its differences compared to Western mathematics. While mathematics is recognized as a vital cultural force in human civilization, the research on mathematical culture has often overlooked the rich heritage of Chinese mathematics. By delving into the history of mathematics culture and examining the development directions and structural pursuits of ancient Chinese and Western mathematics, this paper aims to highlight the contrasting value orientations of mathematics and uncover the reasons behind these difference

Abstract:
The idea of mathematical culture is in the air, it seems, and so the title of Alan J. Bishop's Mathematical Enculturation has a nice ring to it. The tone of Bishop's essay is quite personal as he takes the reader through his own discovery process en route to understanding the nature and meaning of mathematical culture and the implications of mathematical culture for mathematics education. But as well as being personal, the book is also somewhat idiosyncratic: the sources cited, taken together, appear to represent more of a random walk through the library than a developed expertise in the field

The process of modernization of the present-day educational system, as well as the public demand for the formation of high school graduates' mathematical cultural skills are an important, but understudied, cause for concern.The convergence of natural and mathematical studies and the Humanities through the concept of dialogue of cultures is becoming one of the high school's educational priorities.

Humans are unique in the extent and complexity of their cultures. As a species, we generate extensive knowledge and innumerable norms, attitudes, traditions, skills, beliefs and technologies that we share with those around us through teaching, imitation and language. These cultural practices have their roots in our uniquely potent ability for social learning.

Abstract:
Since there are insufficient mathematicians to meet economic and educational demands and many well-qualified, successful mathematics students exhibit signs of disaffection, the student experience of undergraduate mathematics is high on the political agenda. Many undergraduates struggle with the school-university transition, which has been associated with students’ prior experiences of mathematics which, at A-level, are regularly criticised for being too easy and too different to undergraduate mathematics.

Improving efficiency within the agricultural industry is vital to maintain the food demands of the increasing population, as well the current preference for a more protein rich diet. One avenue for addressing these issues is to study animal-based growth to determine if the efficiency of the production system can be improved by increasing lean muscle mass. The aim of this thesis is to provide an alternative exploration to experimental work to provide an insight into how muscle metabolism in pigs is altered by the administration of a beta-agonist which induces muscle hypertrophy.

Abstract:
Culture is a hugely important process in the evolution of humans and many non-human animals. Through the formation of long lasting traditions, culture provides an extragenetic inheritance mechanism that can facilitate rapid behavioural adaptation to novel environments. This can ultimately alter the selection pressures acting on different phenotypes including those that underlie cultural transmission itself, i.e. the mechanisms of social learning. Understanding culture poses many challenges for researchers due to the complex nature of interacting biological processes at multiple organisational

The question of what constitutes a culture has often been answered in one phrase: shared knowledge. Recent developments in both the theory and mathematics of examining this shared cultural knowledge allow researchers to produce mathematical models of informants' knowledge and perceptions of the culture they belong to. Many studies in cognitive anthropology have utilized these theoretical and mathematical tools: the present research sought to integrate a research design (based on the theory and mathematics mentioned above) with a relatively new cultural domain: the culture of sports.
