Book excerpt: Twenty years ago no professional training of university grade existed in this country to prepare teachers of mathematics for secondary schools. At that time the young teacher's sole preparation for his work was the taking of as many academic courses in mathematics as possible, plus, in some instances, a course on the history of education or some lectures on general pedagogy. On graduation he had had no observation of skillful teaching in secondary mathematics, no practice work, no survey of secondary mathematics from a higher and pedagogic standpoint, and no knowledge of the best literature dealing with the teaching of algebra and geometry in this country or abroad. He gained all his experience in the classroom, and, if progressive, he also acquired a certain pedagogic equipment from private reading and from teachers' associations; if not, his point of view on questions of teaching remained narrow, as is always the case when one fails to come into contact with what others are doing in his field of work. A general interest in the professional preparation of teachers for secondary, education, which is now being shown in many American colleges and universities, has led to a feeling on the part of a number of 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 establishment at a number of universities of schools of education, each with a formal organization and a separate faculty, these being considered as professional schools and as such ranking, in general, with the schools of law, medicine, and engineering. In 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. As far as mathematics is concerned, it is the aim of these colleges of education to prepare teachers and supervisors of mathematics for public and private high schools. Some of these institutions also have facilities for equipping teachers of mathematics for departmental work in elementary schools and instructors in methods in mathematics for normal schools. This bulletin provides reports from four subcommittees that addressed the topic of the training of teachers of elementary and secondary mathematics: (1) Subcommittee 1: The training of teachers of mathematics in professional schools of collegiate grade, separate from or connected with colleges or universities; (2) Subcommittee 2: State normal schools; (3) Subcommittee 3: Private normal schools; and (4) Subcommittee 4: Teachers for normal schools.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now is a time of great interest in mathematics education. Student performance, curriculum, and teacher education are the subjects of much scrutiny and debate. Studies on the mathematical knowledge of prospective and practicing U. S. teachers suggest ways to improve their mathematical educations. It is often assumed that because the topics covered in K-12 mathematics are so basic, they should be easy to teach. However, research in mathematics education has shown that to teach well,substantial mathematical understanding is necessary--even to teach whole-number arithmetic. Prospective teachers need a solid understanding of mathematics so that they can teach it as a coherent, reasoned activity and communicate its elegance and power. This volume gathers and reports current thinkingon curriculum and policy issues affecting the mathematical education of teachers. It considers two general themes: (1) the intellectual substance in school mathematics; and (2) the special nature of the mathematical knowledge needed for teaching. The underlying study was funded by a grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The mathematical knowledge needed for teaching is quite different from that required by students pursuing other mathematics-related professions. Material here is gearedtoward stimulating efforts on individual campuses to improve programs for prospective teachers. This report contains general recommendations for all grades and extensive discussions of the specific mathematical knowledge required for teaching elementary, middle, and high-school grades, respectively.It is also designed to marshal efforts in the mathematical sciences community to back important national initiatives to improve mathematics education and to expand professional development opportunities. The book will be an important resource for mathematics faculty and other parties involved in the mathematical education of teachers. Information for our distributors: This series is published in cooperation with the Mathematical Association of America.

This book was released on 1911 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proportion of school children and other students in the United States who are required to take examinations other than those set by the teacher for his own classes is exceedingly small. Except in New York State, where a considerable number of children in the elementary and secondary schools are accustomed to taking examinations set by the State education department, almost the only examinations of the kind are those set by a small number of colleges and by the college entrance examination-board at the point of transition from the secondary school to the college. Notwithstanding the fact that only a very small proportion of the school children in the United States are examined for admission to college, college admission examinations constitute one of the most powerful influences bearing upon the work of the secondary schools. Teachers in the secondary schools in every part of the United States recognize in the examinations set for admission to college a concrete illustration of generally accepted standards; and institutions like the college entrance examination board are in constant receipt of communications, asking that, by means of the examinations, an attempt be made to influence the methods of teaching various subjects. It has been urged by eminent educators in the United States that the requirements for graduation from the secondary school and the requirements for admission to the college should be made identical. If this be a true educational principle, its application certainly cannot mean that the colleges should be compelled to make their requirements for admission conform to standards determined wholly by the secondary schools. It also seems that it would be quite as unreasonable that the secondary schools should be compelled to make their standards of work conform to requirements established by the colleges, without consideration of the conditions actually existing in the secondary schools. When the college entrance examination board was organized in 1900, the principle of cooperation was made fundamental. The board represents not only a cooperative effort on the part of a large number of colleges and universities, but also a cooperation between the colleges on the one hand the secondary schools on the other hand, in respect to a matter of vital importance to both. The most important immediate benefit derived by the secondary schools from the operations of the college entrance examination board is the possibility of unity in class work. Perhaps the greatest and most far-reaching effect of the examinations of the board, however, will ultimately be the raising of the standards of work in the secondary schools, as these standards are higher than those set by most individual schools. This bulletin deals specifically with examinations in mathematics and the numerous questions that have arisen regarding the nature and extent of these examinations, such as, by whom are they given, to what extent are they a factor in determining promotion, how valuable are they as a basis for promotion, and are teachers more particular about promotion in mathematics than in other school studies. An index is included. [Best copy available has been provided.].
