The Integration of Science and Mathematics

[[abstract]]一般人認為科學與數學之間有著密切的關係，學生在學習的過程中勢必也將此兩學科的知識互相連結應用，然而國內探討這兩門學科之間的連結卻很少。本文首先論述科學與數學統整之理論，能夠了解統整兩學科的型式可區分兩類：連續區(continuum)和目的(sake)型式，並分別依不同型式加以定義。其次再由探究數學與科學的素養（聽、說、讀、寫的能力）論述統整，並討論數學語言在數學與科學學習情境中的角色。最後本文藉由溫度與熱單元進行兩學科間課程綱要的比較範例，突顯科學與數學學習的相關性，冀望提高教師在科學與數學統整方面的注意。[[abstract]]Many people think that science and math are much closed with each other. Although students learn math and science separately, they have to integrate these two disciplines together in their learning and in solving daily life problem. Many science and math educators have aware the importance of the integration in science and math. Thus the purpose of the paper is to address the importance of math and science integration. Several themes are addressed in the paper, which included with 1) The theoretical aspect for integration of science and math: continuum and sake styles. 2) The integration of science and math from literacy point of view, such as listening, writing, reading, and speaking. 3) The integration of science and math from mathematical language viewpoint. Mathematical language consisted of "Contextual Language", "Bridging Language", and "Official Mathematical Language", these all contextual bound. 4) The integration of science and math from curriculum standard point of view. Finally the paper recommends science and math teachers are awarded of integrating science and math in their classroom teaching
