Sempoa...!!!

Sempoa or in English language called Abacus, a tool which I count extraordinary.Although at this time has been calculated using a tool with high-technology, but users are still a lot of sempoa.Sempoa are often constructed as a bamboo frame with beads sliding on wires.This used to perform arithmetic operations such as Answer, reduction, multiplication, division and square roots.

Hearing this the first time the countdown is found in ancient history Babilonia in the form of sebilah board ditaburi above the sand so that people can write or count. That's why the tool is named abakus derived from the Greek ABACOS, which means remove the dust.

Chinese abakus develop this into 2 parts. At the top of the trellis inserted 2 beads and 5 beads on the bottom rail. Model / form is what makes abakus / sempoa become very popular.
In the century to 16, abakus brought into Japan by the traders and bhiksu-bhiksu Buddha from China. Japan and the nation finally have an idea to reduce the number of beads become one rail on top and four on the bottom rail. This method is very practical so that children make very Japanese like arithmetic. This makes Japan so quickly rose from the rubble, debris kekalahannya in World War II. With young people like the fields of exact sciences, the entry of America West to bring technology to make Japanese people easily able to forge, modify and even now melampauinya.

This phenomenon does not escape the attention of neighboring countries. After the torment of war in Korea 50 a decade, the nation Korea (South Korea) at the intensive generation educate youth with Japan so that the arithmetic model on an 60 decades they have themselves menyejajarkan with developed countries other.

Countries that Taiwan has with China sempoa model, not change the system with the method of learning Japanese. And Taiwan now also enjoy the prosperity thanks to industry-based hi-tech.
Count method
Count method as well as learn basic mathematics, the study adds to the (+) decrease (-) multiplying (x) and share (:) using the tool SEMPOA.
At the initial stage, children are taught the sempoa to advanced skills ago moved to the hands in the natural imagination until eventually the children do not need sempoa again.

Ideal Learning age

Ideal age children start learning at the time the child enters school age in the TK-A,-B Kindergarten, Elementary School and most high school This drip decline in the development of the theory that children who think the power starts at the age of 0 to 15 years and have a rapid growth rate.
Benefits of Learning arithmetic
Through the study of a children's mental arithmetic will get many benefits including:
1. Improve more quickly calculate the average child
2. Ability do more quickly and correctly
3. To balance the use of left and right brain and optimize accordingly to achieve the level of thinking and logical analysis of the thinking in the right
4. Trained thought and concentration of power, to help children capable other subjects.
5. Develop imagination so that children develop creativity.
6. Familiarize oneself with the numbers, make the child is no longer allergic to the exact sciences subjects.

Learning The History Of Mathematics Through A Number

Knowledge about the history of the emergence mathematics started with the investigation of how the history of mathematics that are. The first time I have to do is conduct the investigation and search of the beginning of the history of mathematics that is about the emergence of a number. Many do I get when I try to find the material on this figure through the internet and books.

Learn about the field of numbers called numerology. Many experts are engaged in this field. Prof.Annemarie Schimel, a specialist in the field of study and the world reveals the mystery of a secret attempt figures in the book The Mystery of Numbers. With the material of the study of old, he successfully dismantle various secret history of the numbers in a variety of ancient traditions and Islam, Jewish, and Christian traditions in addition to Maya. Schimmel also explain in detail symbolism figures of the pre-Columbus United States that develop systems astronomy, or the figures in the United States or Indian tribes Africa.

Indeed numerologi field of power and magic numbers have been attracting the attention of thousands of people during the year. Sun and moon as the signs in the 'book' magnificent universe that functions to measure the life of this man, always makes people feel that the numbers are something that is special. The figures are not only encircle and determine the time and space in the formula-abstract formulations, nelainkan also part of a system of relations mysterious stars and various other natural phenomena. Generation of the phenomenon that always occurs in relation with the spirits, deities and demons.

So are the numbers to prove 'themselves' as the organism and all the power hidup.Dengan miracle' their 'own spread to various corners of the human civilization without the geographic boundaries, ethnic, racial or cultural exception' their 'own.

Learning of Mathematic from the history of mathematics

The major aim of this blog is to provide mathematics with its memory, in order to reveal the insights achieved in earlier periods (ranging from Ancient time to the late 20th century) and to unravel the fallacies of past events.

Every culture on earth has developed some mathematics. In some cases, this mathematics has spread from one culture to another. Now there is one predominant international mathematics, and this mathematics has quite a history. It has roots in ancient Egypt and Babylonia, then grew rapidly in ancient Greece. Mathematics written in ancient Greek was translated into Arabic. About the same time some mathematics of India was translated into Arabic. Later some of this mathematics was translated into Latin and became the mathematics of Western Europe. Over a period of several hundred years, it became the mathematics of the world.

There are other places in the world that developed significant mathematics, such as China, southern India, and Japan, and they are interesting to study, but the mathematics of the other regions have not had much influence on current international mathematics. There is, of course, much mathematics being done these and other regions, but it is not the traditional math of the regions, but international mathematics.

By far, the most significant development in mathematics was giving it firm logical foundations. This took place in ancient Greece in the centuries preceding Euclid. Logical foundations give mathematics more than just certainty-they are a tool to investigate the unknown.

By the 20th century the edge of that unknown had receded to where only a few could see. One was David Hilbert, a leading mathematician of the turn of the century.

Mathematics continues to grow at a phenomenal rate. There is no end in sight, and the application of mathematics to science becomes greater all the time.

The History of Mathematics

Before the modern age and the worldwide spread of knowledge, written examples of new mathematical developments have come to light only in a few locales. The most ancient mathematical texts available are Plimpton 322 (Babylonian mathematics ca. 1900 BC), the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian mathematics ca. 1850 BC), the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian mathematics ca. 1650 BC), and the Shulba Sutras (Indian mathematics ca. 800 BC). All of these texts concern the so-called Pythagorean theorem, which seems to be the most ancient and widespread mathematical development after basic arithmetic and geometry.

Egyptian and Babylonian mathematics were then further developed in Greek and Hellenistic mathematics, which is generally considered to be one of the most important for greatly expanding both the method and the subject matter of mathematics.[1] The mathematics developed in these ancient civilizations were then further developed and greatly expanded in Islamic mathematics. Many Greek and Arabic texts on mathematics were then translated into Latin in medieval Europe and further developed there

The evolution of mathematics might be seen as an ever-increasing series of abstractions, or alternatively an expansion of subject matter. The first abstraction was probably that of number: the realization that two apples and two oranges (for example) have something in common was a breakthrough in human thought

One striking feature of the history of ancient and medieval mathematics is that bursts of mathematical development were often followed by centuries of stagnation. Beginning in Renaissance Italy in the 16th century, new mathematical developments, interacting with new scientific discoveries, were made at an ever increasing pace, and this continues to the present day
