In Dutch "WISKOBAS" stands for a particular kind of mathematics in
the elementary school (ages 6-12). In tum Wiskobas was one of the
depart ments in the IOWO, the Institute for the Development of
Mathematics Education. This institute was concerned with the
development of material for mathematics education as well as the
related research on the possibility of change from the then
existing arithmetic instruction to the future mathematics
education. The present publication Three Dimensions has three aims:
to give a picture of the goals Wiskobas set for future mathematics
education, at the same time to show how such goals can be
described, and to show the theoretical framework of the Wiskobas
curriculum. The problem at hand is not at all simple. What is more,
Wiskobas' ideas about mathematics education cannot literally be
translated into strings of words. So how can we face the accusation
that our objectives are unattain able and the goal itself
irrational? In order to avoid this vagueness as much as possible
and for the sake of clarity, this book makes continuous use of
illustrations of mathematics education. In these examples both the
subject-matter and the methods of description of the goals are
illustrated as explicitly as possible, while at the same time
creating the opportunity to read between the lines. The reader is
urged to follow carefully the mathe matical material at the start
of each chapter. This advice applies both to the more general
education oriented, and to the more mathematical didactical
reader."
