    Heidegger on Science and Tool (Emphasized on "Being and Time")

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Khalili, Mahdi (Author) ; Sefidkhosh, Meisam (Supervisor) ; Taghavi, Mostafa (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    This thesis is going to investigate the ontological foundation of Science and Tool. To this aim, it refers to Heidegger’s works especially the Being and time. Heidegger gets involve in analyzing Science in the Being and Time. He emphasizes on importance of establishment of a fundamental knowledge which should ontologically recognize basic concepts and methods of Sciences, to cause a real progress in sciences. Heidegger also asserts that the Mathematical interpretation of the world is not a fundamental, and it must be replaced with phenomenological interpretation, which clarifies the ontological foundation of the theoretical view, and regards to all aspects of world’s existence. In this... 

    The Role of Proof and Reasoning in Solving Real-Life Math Problems

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Alipanah, Somayeh (Author) ; Zohuri-Zangeneh, Bijan (Supervisor) ; Gooya, Zahra (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The purpose of the present study was to investigate the Grade 9 students' ability to solve real-life and modelling problems, focusing on proof and reasoning. The study conducted using qualitative method in which, six volunteer students participated. The data collected via eight problems mostly chosen from Chapter 3 of the 9th grade mathematics textbook and using Adobe Connect Platform, because of Covid-19 Pandemic and schools clousure. The data were analyzed using a problem solving framework developed by Mason, Burton and Stacey (2010) including three stages of entry, attack and review. The results showed that considering these three steps, is effective to understand students' problem... 

    On Mathematical Logic and Art

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Shirkhani, Mehrak (Author) ; Ardeshir, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Mathematical logic claims to have a model for various kinds of thinking (mathematical, philosophical, scientific and...) which can provide us with a language at the same time. The relation between art and logic, when art is defined on its own, is somewhat unexplored, as opposed to when it's defined scientifically or philosophically. There are arguments in the literature asserting that art cannot fit into the frame of mathematical logic. The inter-connection between thinking and art has been fairly investigated, even though it's been mainly believed that art is more engaged with emotions rather than rationality; thinking about artistic value, artistic credibility, proof in art, etc... It's...
