11 THE PROCESS OF REPRESENTATION
It’s a chair!

12 THE TWO SYSTEMS IN REPRESENTATION
1.Conceptual Map 2.Language system

13 1.Conceptual Map

14 Chair 椅子 Chaise

15 2.Language system (signs) indexical iconic

16 Concept Thing arbitrary Meaning Sign

17 Cultural code

18 數學作為一種語言 語言都是抽象的 語言會流變 語言都會被操弄

19 THE IMPORTANCE OF REPRESENTATION
語言都是抽象的 那它如何與意義有所連結？ 語言會流變 意義改變導致語言改變。 語言都會被操弄 因此也會衍生出不同意義。

20 武漢女大生用數學符號作三行情詩 男友也驚呆
INPUT (－∞，+∞) IF(－∞THEN+∞] ELSE+∞) INPUT輸入 / －∞和+∞ 負無窮和正無窮(的付出) IF如果 / THEN然後 / ] 閉區間符號，表示停止 ELSE否則

21 [ 陌生，愛 ) 理科生不再不解風情！用數學公式抒寫情詩
[ 表示數值可以達到， ) 表示無限接近但無法 達到，中括弧是封閉的，而小括弧是開放的 ；中括弧是包括，小括弧是不包括。

22 Open arbitrariness

23 CONCLUSION Representation, a meaning- constructed system.
數學沒有標準答案正如意義也沒 有標準答案。
