Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Elementary Mathematics: With Hints on Methods of Teaching In the preparation of this history, I have made extensive use of the works of Cantor, Hankel, Unger, De Morgan, Pea cock, Gow, Allman, Loria, and of other prominent writers On the history of mathematics. Original sources have been consulted, whenever opportunity has presented itself. It gives me much pleasure to acknowledge the assistance ren dered by the United States Bureau of Education, in. For warding for examination a number of old text-books which otherwise would have been inaccessible to me. It should also be said that a large number of passages in this book are taken, with only slight alteration, from my History of Mathematics, Macmillan co., 1895. Some parts of the present work are, therefore, not independent of the earlier one. It has been my privilege to have my manuscript read by two scholars of well-known ability, - Dr. G. B. Halsted of the University of Texas, and Professor F. H. Loud of Colorado College. Through their suggestions and corrections many infelicities in language and several inaccuracies of statement have disappeared. Valuable assistance in proof-reading has been rendered by Professor Loud, by Mr. P. E. Doudna, formerly Fellow in Mathematics at the University of Wis consin, and by Mr. F. K. Bailey, a student in Colorado College. I extend to them my sincere thanks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics written by Liping Ma and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-03-26 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of teachers in the U.S. often document insufficient subject matter knowledge in mathematics. Yet, these studies give few examples of the knowledge teachers need to support teaching, particularly the kind of teaching demanded by recent reforms in mathematics education. Knowing and Teaching Elementary Mathematics describes the nature and development of the knowledge that elementary teachers need to become accomplished mathematics teachers, and suggests why such knowledge seems more common in China than in the United States, despite the fact that Chinese teachers have less formal education than their U.S. counterparts. The anniversary edition of this bestselling volume includes the original studies that compare U.S and Chinese elementary school teachers’ mathematical understanding and offers a powerful framework for grasping the mathematical content necessary to understand and develop the thinking of school children. Highlighting notable changes in the field and the author’s work, this new edition includes an updated preface, introduction, and key journal articles that frame and contextualize this seminal work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Mathematics Perhaps no subject is so directly in the flux of the instability of things as mathematics. For cen turies this subject has held the unenviable reputa tion of being tortuous; yet man, because of his un ending need of the subject, has endured silently. It has been one of the necessary evils of life, yet, did man but know it, wonderfully full of beauty in its symmetry and exactness. Indispensible to the man who builds, to the man who barters, to the man who meditates, it has ever been shrouded with a mantle of mysticism. One might say with truth that they who have the greatest need of the find ings of mathematical investigation have the smallest Opportunity to acquire a knowledge of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Arithmetic The teaching Of arithmetic has, like the teaching Of other things, improved during the last forty years. The improvement has been a steady growth due almost entirely to the teachers themselves. It is not the residuum Of a series Of fashionable innovations hastily adopted and quietly discarded, nor is it the kind Of evolution which has left, in turn, our Handwork, Drawing, Language Teaching and Infant School Method in a state of chaos, waiting reverently for a pronouncement from some distinguished native or foreign dogmatist. Briefly stated, the teacher of arithmetic to-day wishes his pupils to be able to do everything that he himself did at school and to do it equally well, omitting only those units, measures and processes that he has never found useful he insists from the earliest stage that the problems his pupils solve should be such as actually occur from day to day in an ordinary man's life, or better still, in the life Of a boy or girl and that with this in view, many exercises should be based on the current geography, or geometry, or handwork of his class.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Training of Teachers of Elementary and Secondary Mathematics: International Commission on the Teaching of Mathematics; The American Report; Committee No. V For the other high-school studies, such as Latin, English, German, physics, and chemistry, there has been a corresponding development of professional courses on the teaching of these subjects. This general interest in the professional preparation of teachers for secondary education, which is thus being shown in many of our American colleges and universities, has led to a feeling on the part of a number of these institutions that teaching must be recognized as a profession, and that. Training for it must be as formal and definite as for law, medicine, or engineering. This has resulted in the establish ment at a number of our universities of schools of education, each with a formal organization and a separate faculty, these being con sidered as professional schools and as such ranking, in general, with the schools of law. Medicine, and engineering. 111 these schools attention has been given particularly to preparation for secondary teaching, as the various State normal schools have, in general, solved the problem of preparing teachers for the elementary schools. Of the various schools of education now existing in the United States the oldest are Teachers College of Columbia. University and the School of Pedagogy of New York University. Teachers Col lege was founded in 1888 as a privately endowed institution under the presidency of Nicholas Murray Butler, and was then known as the New York College for the Training of Teachers. It was a. School of university grade and enjoyed reciprocal relations with Columbia University. In 1898 it became one of the professional schools of Columbia University, ranking with the schools of law, medicine, and engineering. Teachers College was the first. Professional college of education of university grade separate from a university, though now a part of Columbia University.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mathematics in the Elementary Schools of the United States: International Commission on the Teaching of Mathematics; The American Report, Committees I and II II. The elementary school. This term is now commonly applied to the types of schools formerly designated as primary, intermediate, and grammar or grammar grades. The course is nearly always 8 years in length, very rarely 7, occasionally 9 or 10. The completion of the elementary course is necessary for entrance to the high schools, and the elementary school rar'ely provides work paralleling that of the secondary school, this providing the marked con trast to European practice. In a few cases it is attempted to teach secondary subjects, such as foreign language and mathematics, in the upper grades of the elementary school. Under present conditions the standard maintained by the elementary school is such that seldom more than half of all children are able to finish it by the close of the compulsory school period 14 years of age. In 1907-8 some children were reported in the elementary schools. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Rational Elementary Arithmetic Classic Reprint written by Henry Holmes Belfield and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rational Elementary Arithmetic He is next led to apply his facts to other concrete problems, such as: If John has one marble and Henry has three, how many have both? Which are not constructive, but which oblige him to use his judgment. Finally the number combinations thus learned and applied are fixed by a series of drills. An essential feature of these drill tables is that they make the subject less formidable to the child. For example, the tables on page 43 show that if the child adds three, say, to a series of numbers ending in six, all the sums will end in nine. As soon as the child masters the develop ment of a number, he is taught to associate it with certain facts of his daily life; as, for example, in connection with the number eight, is given the table of dry measure, and with the number twelve, the foot, the months, and the mysteries of the clock face. In this way the child is sure to be interested, and his powers both of memory and of judgment are developed. Throughout the book much use is made of graphic illustrations and concrete problems, such as drawing to scale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Elementary Arithmetic The present edition of The New Elementary Arith metic will be found to differ from the earlier edition principally in an increase in the amount of drill work given upon the fundamental operations. This change, it is believed, recognizes a tendency of present-day arith metic work which has the approval of the best authorities. In a few other respects also the book has been changed, notably in the direction of simplification and the bringing of the book into harmony with the advance which has been made in the teaching of arithmetic since the first edition appeared.
