The teaching of mathematics has a history stretching back some
hundreds of years. From its infancy through to its adolescence
institutions at which mathematics was taught were thinly and
somewhat haphazardly spread over the country and so individuals
were extremely influential in developing curricula and methods of
teaching. Indeed this has continued to be a feature of English
mathematics education. In this authoritative account Geoffrey
Howson follows the history and development of mathematics teaching
by looking at the careers of some of these individuals in detail.
In the mid- 1970s the curriculum development boom in mathematics
was to end almost as rapidly as it had begun. In this book the
authors, who come from countries with differing educational
traditions and patterns, consider these developments in their
historical, social and educational context. They give not only a
descriptive account of developmental work in a variety of
countries, its aims and the patterns of management utilised, but
also attempt to identify trends and characteristics and thus
provide a theoretical base for criticism and analysis. The reader
will find numerous case studies, including extracts from such
renowned authors as Bruner, Dieudonne and Piaget.
