*Well, it's another post for a long-time break from this site. So, here's a filler for this blog. :D (This can also be found at http://marvinjs.blogspot.com)
According to George E. P. Box, all models are wrong, but some are useful. As for education, the logic will still be the same. An example to the expanding content of academic subjects is English. English is said to be the key course in developing a person’s professionalism, as well as his character. On the other hand, math and science courses are also important in applied English, and the national development as well. When all of the subject matters are combined, they can produce great achievements. By placing English as the foundation, math and science will serve the construction of different ideas to be used in technical work, everyday living, and the nation’s development.
First and foremost, all of the technical explanations of math and science will came from English itself. To begin with, English courses are important in strengthening a person’s mathematical knowledge. When a person, learns the language, it follows that he/she will be able to figure out the meaning of the words. This is the same as using English in understanding difficult math problems, which will sharpen a person’s analytical skills. Through this process, a person will improve his weaknesses in mathematics, and learn from his mistakes as well.
Mind sharpening is just the starting process, and English has still more to give. When a person has undergone enough practice in solving math problems, it is now time to use it in certain applications, and math teaches him/her how to do it. In creating real life math applications, a person must be acquainted in English knowledge in order to use it in interpreting mathematical calculations of certain math subjects such as algebra, calculus, differential equations, and other higher math. Through learning English, he/she can use the math equations in creating a plan which will serve as a basis for succeeding steps in the construction of new things. It will also enable certain product developers to further improve their technological studies because it can provide him/her more information about the functions of his products, its flaws, current advantages, and possible capabilities, which are all made through mathematical calculations. An example is the subject of kinematics, wherein the movements of objects are extensively studied in order to apply them to technical works such as variable movements of robotics and machines, their action-reaction mechanism, programming of the robot’s movement pattern, the structure of a machine’s moving components, and their performance limits.
As we can see, English has a wide range of applications, especially in math and mind training. It can use math to do something useful, and it includes the country’s development. When a country’s economy is either improving or declining, we are using Statistics to know its flow, as well as its future outcomes. Statistics plays an important role in determining the economic status because through statistical calculations, a person can tell whether a certain economic sector requires attention, such as export problems, budget deficiencies, more product demands, overproduction of certain products, and the like. With this kind of math, we are able to see our economy, and through English, certain discussions will be conducted by the authorities so that they can discuss the negative factors, plan the necessary actions, and provide support to certain factories that had problems in production because of increasing demand. When the problems are resolved, the country will now experience a major progress because the country’s development was not hindered by the economic problems. It leads to faster industrial development by increasing the number of services provided by big companies, as well as helping the government through financial aids, with the help of English.
English is often used for addressing problems, such as diplomatic meetings, and various reforms. But, it can also help a person to become stronger by means of using English in expressing oneself. When it comes to improving a person’s character, certain ethics and proper values should be observed, and it is made possible through mathematical understanding. Analyzing math problems helps a person to discipline his thoughts, as well as improving one’s study habits, and enables him/her to centralize his concentration in doing tasks. Through these practices, a person will be more developed and his/her minds will be more flexible as well. These characteristics will now lead a person in practicing professionalism, which means that he/she will be more decisive, more capable of handling difficult tasks, can manage his/her time very well, and prioritizes certain activities. An example is when people is concentrating, he/she can do the task well, which will enable him/her to practice handling many tasks properly if given to him/her in the future. All of these factors will practice a person to become more capable of managing himself/herself, and independent as well.
Besides English and math, there is still science. Science is known to be the refinement of things, but it could not be possible without the help of mathematical equations and English language. English is very important in explaining the topics in science because its certain topics cannot be visually understand without the help of verbal English. On the other hand, science can also help in working out things through the use of concepts and theories that enables a certain phenomenon to occur. It is known to us that the best way to understand is to have a good explanation, and English courses provide the solutions for scientific mysteries.
Aside from science, its product called technology, shows importance in this study because it is the application of what people have learned in science. Science is bounded by various concepts and theories, which are very difficult to put into action. So, in order to understand certain scientific phenomenon, science is turned into technology so that its complex theories will be easily seen through applications, such as microwave ovens, and pressure cookers. Also, science can be a basis for promoting national development because certain government projects utilizes civil engineering sciences to construct roads, bridges, drainages, buildings, and various infrastructures, and this cannot be possible without depending on certain laws of sciences. These are some of the products of scientific experiments, and its applications can still expand with the help of scientific discoveries and English.
With English applied to science, technology can now be put into real life, and science will do the job in improving technology. But, for all of these factors to be put to action, English must be properly used in making a project outline, giving way to a more simple development plan. Also, English grammar is important in defining a complex scheme for a certain project and it should be backed up by keywords so that instructions will be easier, lessening the constructional flaws.
English courses, when carefully studied and applied, transform science into experimental models of certain products so that its construction and development will reach its final stage. Nevertheless, it can even explain literally the complex applications of science. When a person is trying to develop some kind of gadget using scientific concepts, he/she will need the details that govern the principles behind the phenomena, such as the physics of electricity, and computer science in order to activate the gadget’s functionality. Also, when its experimental models are manufactured, a scientific study will be conducted to confirm its functionalities, and the science applied to it, such as the car’s proper functions of engine mechanism, its movement mechanism, and the speed it can travel, which uses mechanical engineering sciences. These can be simplified by breaking its scientific factors into English definitions. English is very important in terms of development and explanations because it simplifies the analysis of scientific concepts, and technological applications.
So far, we have been classifying math and science separately. But, we must realize that these two subjects are meant to be one. So, English is the key to help math and science combine their differences. It is made possible through setting up mathematical equations of a certain situation, which translates the behavior of the situation, and science will now translate the calculations which will yield an explanation, such as the usage of free body diagrams in solving physics motion problems For the end product, English will explain the resulting concepts used that enables us to produce technology.
As we have seen, math and science must go hand-in-hand to produce something. The first step is to use math as the foundation of scientific explanations. Then, math will now check the validity of various scientific phenomena through using English in explaining the processes involved in both math and science, such as using calculus in determining the amount of light absorbed by the photosynthesis of the leaf.
When the application is ready for testing, it must go through various experiments in order to assure in order to assure a stable product. It is done through studying its functions, such as machine capabilities and reactions towards the environmental actions, which are all needed to formulate hypothesis that will serve as the production basis. Lastly, English will be the catalyst of the production speed through guided instructions, managerial skills, and interpreting skills.
After undergoing the long processes, technology is now produced. It is noticeable that the product made is the result of the combination of math and science. A very prominent example is the high-speed TGV train, wherein it utilizes math to calculate its travel speed, speed variations, and speed limits before it is deployed within the area. Then, it is also backed up by science which governs its movement, structural specifications, and control maneuvers. All of these factors produce the technology of a high-speed transportation.
Therefore, it is now strongly evident that the nation’s technological development is the result of the countless efforts of English language to the integration of mathematics and science. In a stepwise process, science will conduct the experiments while math calculates its validity. Finally, English will translate various experiments and calculations made by the two subjects. Just imagine, without those subjects, our future will be very hard to imagine.
