Calculation and Body

Through the practice of "Dr. SAWA's Math Fun Gym"

Abstract

In this article, we discuss about an exercise program "Dr. SAWA's Math Fun Gym", which is originally developed by authors. The program is a group of exercises with easy calculations. The most important feature is an inevitability of calculations to accomplish an indicated exercise. Second, there are cases that instructors seek neither efficient calculations nor accurate bodily motions. The research purpose is an investigation of the way of an information processing via observing actual situations of the exercise program. We present some points regarding connections between calculations and bodily motions, in terms of a new information processing.
