Research Abstract |
We did research on the mathematical modeling for the prediction of global warming reported by IPCC, the courses of environmental science in Australia and the textbooks on environment science in the USA. We found out that environmental issues could provide a good supply of math educational materials. However, it seems that the current use of environmental issues in mathematical education is insufficient. This study suggests that more environmental issues should be adopted as math educational materials. We have developed some mathematical models to describe global warming as well as eco-system.
