Cryptography and number theory in the classroom -- Contribution of cryptography to mathematics teaching

Klembalski, Katharina 02 May 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Cryptography fascinates people of all generations and is increasingly presented as an example for the relevance and application of the mathematical sciences. Indeed, many principles of modern cryptography can be described at a secondary school level. In this context, the mathematical background is often only sparingly shown. In the worst case, giving mathematics this character of a tool reduces the application of mathematical insights to the message ”cryptography contains math”. This paper examines the question as to what else cryptography can offer to mathematics education. Using the RSA cryptosystem and related content, specific mathematical competencies are highlighted that complement standard teaching, can be taught with cryptography as an example, and extend and deepen key mathematical concepts.
