A Study of Curriculum Renewal of Interdisciplinary between Mathematics and Life & Biological Science
초록
The intersection between mathematics and biology is rapidly expanding. The purpose of this paper is to develop college mathematics curriculum to improve the quantitative and mathematical skills of life & biological science students, and to help them better appreciate the importance and utility of mathematics. We deal with 4 questions. We first study how mathematics plays an important role in biological education and the history of biology. Secondly, we do a case study about partnership between mathematics and biology societies not only in university but in highschool of US, specially via Bio2010 and Math & Bio2010. We then investigate a way to enhance new mathematics curriculum as a service in biological science. Finally, we survey university students' basic background in order to determine the level of curriculum. From our investigation, we suggest some points to renew curriculum.
