ERIC ED096162: A General Survey of Progress in the Last Twenty-Five Years. National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, Yearbook 1 [1926].

Author: ERIC

Year: 1926

Chapter 1 highlights the work of the International Commission on the Teaching of Mathematics, the National Committee on Mathematical Requirements, and the College Entrance Examination Board. Modifications in the arithmetic and algebra curricula are discussed at some length and changes in the geometry curriculum are indicated. Following a reprint of E. H. Moore's address to the 1902 meeting of the American Mathematical Society, chapter 3 presents data to show the state of mathematics achievement of public school pupils and offers specific guidelines for improving this scholarship. Use of objectives, drill procedures, and the idea of general mathematics are discussed in detail. The next chapter considers developments in the testing movement as they were related to mathematics education. Particular attention is paid to standardized achievement tests, their misuses, and their correct place in mathematics education. Chapter 5 traces the history of the junior high school movement and the development of its mathematics curricula. The remaining four chapters deal with research in arithmetic, the relationship of mathematics to the general public, high school math clubs, and a bibliography o
