Is the definition in the first paragraph supported by any of the references? It's not clear what the references are doing in the article anyway. The articles by Gellert and Klein do not even mention the word "techno-mathematics". And all the websites listed, both in the article and (I believe) also on this talk page, use "techno-mathematics" as defined in the second paragraph of the article. -- Jitse Niesen ( talk) 16:40, 17 December 2008 (UTC)
Isn't this just Applied Mathematics? Infact it seems like a "cool" rip off by Universities of the German term "Technomathematik", which is literally Applied Mathematics. Also, the wording makes it sound like an academic branch of mathematics, when it is infact purely a teacing methodology with a focus on applying maths to certain niche areas. - Jimmi Hugh ( talk) 16:38, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
