This document discusses the use of math in literature and cryptography. It provides examples of how authors like Dante Alighieri used symbolic numbers and structures in his Divine Comedy. It then discusses the history of cryptography from ancient Greek and Roman times to its use in World Wars I and II and development of modern cryptography using computers and public key encryption.
This presentation discusses the importance of CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) in Italian schools and how eTwinning can support CLIL instruction. CLIL lessons will be required for all high school students in Italy starting next year. eTwinning provides a platform for teachers to collaborate with international partners, develop professional skills, and enhance student learning through multilingual projects. The presentation outlines the benefits of CLIL for language learning and student motivation, and how eTwinning can help teachers deliver CLIL lessons and internationalize their schools.
This document discusses the Global Framework for Climate Services (GFCS), which aims to enable better management of the risks of climate variability and change through development and incorporation of science-based climate information and prediction into planning, policy and practice. It outlines key components of the GFCS including observation networks, preparing and understanding climate information, priority areas like agriculture and water, and enabling countries to provide climate services. The goals are reducing vulnerability, advancing development, and mainstreaming climate information use. Real examples are given of projects improving weather alerts and farmer training that contribute to these goals.
Praveen Kumar SS has worked as a research assistant at CORI since July 2013. He has experience working with ISRO scientists on satellite projects, including battery management systems, Bluetooth controlled robots, and GPS time synchronization using Arduino boards. He has tested RF hardware, satellite modems, power amplifiers, and antenna control units. Praveen has a Bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering and skills in simulation tools, programming, PCB design, and operating systems.
1) This document discusses the relationship between maths and physics. Mathematics allows physicists to calculate and equate physical events using equations that translate elements like forces, mass, and motion into numbers.
2) An example is provided of using mathematical equations to predict how an object sliding down an inclined plane will behave based on its mass, the inclination, and distance to the ground.
3) Physics relies heavily on mathematics to calculate and help understand phenomena like motion, forces, energy, and more. Mathematics provides the logical framework for physics.
This document discusses the historical connections between mathematics and philosophy. It begins by providing context on the origins of these links in ancient Greek civilization. Next, it profiles the philosopher Pythagoras and outlines his life experiences and major contributions, which included important mathematical theorems as well as philosophical beliefs. Finally, it briefly mentions the philosopher Zeno as another key figure at the intersection of these disciplines.

Maths and music have had a close relationship throughout history. Pythagoras discovered that musical intervals were linked to precise numerical ratios, laying the foundation for modern music theory. During the Middle Ages, composers explored mathematical structures like the golden ratio, palindromes, and isorhythm in their compositions. Bach was a master of symmetrical structures and canons, applying complex mathematical rules and patterns to his music. Physics explains the properties of sound waves, including how factors like frequency, wavelength, and intensity relate to musical concepts like pitch, tone, and volume. Beats occur through interference between sounds of similar frequencies and were used by musicians to tune instruments.
