Ask
A mathematics teacher has a difficulty in teaching
biology because of his limited experience.

He is afraid that the students have more knowledge

about the subject.

when teaching about the heart, you could focus on the

mathematical aspects of its function, such as calculating
heart rate or understanding the mathematical models
used to describe blood flow.

Research
● Math and biology deal with fundamentally
different aspects of the world. Math emphasizes
abstract concepts, logic, and problem-solving with
numbers and structures. Biology delves into the
living world, focusing on processes, interactions,
and the intricate details of life.
● Both subjects have their own unique
vocabularies, symbols, and methods of inquiry.
Math relies on equations, functions, and proofs.
Biology uses terms like "photosynthesis,"
"mitosis," and experiments to understand living
things.]

Imagine ● Read reliable books and websites about

physiology, with an emphasis on the heart.

● Watch videos from trusted sources like Khan

Academy or TED-Ed that explain blood circulation
and heartbeat.

● Try to understand how mathematics is used to

describe blood circulation, blood pressure, and
blood flow and make summary or write notes to
make it easier to understand .

● Take advantage of educational websites and

platforms that offer content about connecting

mathematics to biology.

● Search for the latest research and studies in the

field of heart and blood vessels.

Plan ● Find ways to incorporate mathematical concepts

into biology lessons (e.g., modeling population
growth, analyzing genetic data). This strengthens
the connections between subjects for both
teachers and students.

● Invite a biologist or someone with expertise in the

topic to present to the class.

● Provide students with resources (reliable

websites, documentaries, etc.) and guide them
through the research process. This empowers the
students and allows the teacher to learn with
them.

● Math and Biology Debates: Organize debates

where students argue about the importance of
mathematics or biology in understanding a
particular biological phenomenon. This
encourages critical thinking and highlights the
interconnectedness between these topics.

● Use online simulations or software that model

biological processes. This allows students to
visualize complex concepts and experiment with
variants in a safe virtual environment.

● Consider the teacher's comfort level with biology.

For the completely unfamiliar teacher, focus on
co-teaching, guest speakers, or student-led

research. A teacher with some background in

biology may benefit from creative intervention or
technology integration activities.

● Measure students' learning styles and prior

knowledge. Hands-on learners may benefit from
experiential learning, while visual learners may
thrive through simulation or media. Make sure
the chosen solution meets diverse learning needs.

Test in this prototype, we show how can we measure the

heart beats and the normal heart beat by age

Improve video that shows the heartbeat better.
