摘要

在以色列耶路撒冷希伯来大学为学习天文学的大学生教授科学调查入门课程时,我们花了四个小时教授天文学史,这是一项富有成效的策略,旨在介绍整个历史上围绕一般科学知识发展的重要概念。为了说明天文测量精度提高的影响,我们建议使用日历的发展,特别是,公元前和公元前千禧年广泛使用的希伯来历法。根据巴比伦和犹太文献以及公元9世纪al-Khwarizmi在印度巴特那Khuda Bakhsh东方图书馆发现的作品,可以证明希伯来历法的几个决定因素的变化。我们的经验表明,日历发展和演变的教学表明了科学努力和社会宗教传统之间的相互联系。

The Changes In Calendars In The Ancient World As A Tool To Teach The Development Of Astronomy
When teaching an introductory science survey course to college students learning astronomy at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, we have devoted four hours to teaching the history of astronomy as a fruitful strategy to introduce important concepts surrounding the development of general scientific knowledge throughout history. In order to illustrate the impact of improved accuracy of astronomical measurements, we propose using the example the development of the calendars and, in particular, the widespread Hebrew calendars used throughout the adjacent Millennia of B.C. and A.C. The changes in the several determinations of the Hebrew calendar are demonstrated based on Babylonian and Jewish documents as well as works by al-Khwarizmi from the 9th century AD, found in the Khuda Bakhsh Oriental Library, in Patna India.  Our experience suggests that the teaching of calendar development and evolutions demonstrates the interconnectedness between scientific endeavors and social-religious traditions.
