Furthermore, it will be discussed that the mathematics concepts related to different philosophical perspectives in parallel with historical development of concepts and this process of historical development needed to be taken into account also in the teaching of the concepts
Course Content Ontological and epistemological discussions in the development of mathematical knowledge. Discussions on whether it is the discovery or invention of mathematical knowledge and examples from the history of concepts. Crises in the history of mathematics and their contributions to development of mathematics. Significant characters in the history of mathematics. Philosophical movements in the mathematics (logicism, formalism, intuitionism). Suggestions that are related to the arrangement of mathematics teaching by considering the history and nature of mathematics.
