Katarzyna Mentel (2011)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Geographica

Similarity:

„Picturesque geography” is an original expression of Wacław Nałkowski, which probably has no counterpart in the whole history of geographical thought. It clearly shows Nałkowski’s belief that the materials utilized in the process of education should have a beautiful shape. This is also a very convincing expression of his romantic sensibility and the testimony of his great literary talent. Romantic aspects in works of Nałkowski are thought to be very important, since geography is a field...

Piotr Błaszczyk, Mirosława Sajka (2017)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis | Studia ad Didacticam Mathematicae Pertinentia

Similarity:

We identify two ways of introducing negative numbers. In the first one, a totally ordered set (L, ≺ ) is presupposed, an element 0 in L is arbitrarily taken, and a number a is negative when a 0. In the second one, a negative number is defined by the formula a + (−a) = 0. From a mathematical perspective, the first method involves the idea of a totally ordered group (G,+, 0,<), while the second one considers the idea of the algebraic group (G,+, 0) alone. Through the analysis of source...
