摘要

科罗拉多大学博尔德分校于1984年引入了可能是世界上第一个定量推理(QR)要求,并于1988年开始提供QR课程。虽然我是一名训练有素的天文学家,但我有幸创建和教授这门课程,这导致我与他人合作编写了第一本专门针对QR课程的教科书。在这篇“根与种子”的文章中,我将讨论这门课程和教科书是如何形成的,我作为一名天文学家是如何参与其中的,以及这项工作是如何与我职业生涯的其他方面联系在一起的。

An Astronomer’s Journey into Quantitative Reasoning
The University of Colorado Boulder campus introduced what may have been the world’s first quantitative reasoning (QR) requirement in 1984 and started offering a QR course in 1988. Although I am an astronomer by training, I had the privilege of creating and teaching that course, which led to my co-authorship of the first textbook directed specifically at QR courses. In this “Roots and Seeds” piece, I will discuss how this course and textbook came to be, how I as an astronomer ended up involved in it, and how this work has connected with other aspects of my career.
