On the Teaching of Elementaby Mathematics in Secondary Schools*

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  03 November 2016

Extract

In order to make this brief paper as practical as possible, I shall plunge into the subject with little introduction.

I wish to consider the question from three points of view.

  1. (1) What is the ideal course?

  2. (2) What is the best practicable course?

  3. (3) What effect the best practicable course should have on the teaching of the subject in our secondary schools, and also—since the two are so closely connected—in our elementary schools.
