- Summary:
-
In Exeter (ALM 2, 1995), Wolfgang Schloeglmann and the author presented some results of their research. One of these results is a useful metaphor: Teaching mathematics to engineers and scientists who have finished their university studies and have worked for many years in, for example, industry, is structurally similar to the technology transfer from a highly industrialized country in Europe to a so called Third World or developing country in Africa. If this metaphor is correct, it is useful: people are able to learn something about chances, problems and mistakes. (Contains 11 references.) (Author/ASK)
