College Entrance Examination Papers in Plane Geometry (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from College Entrance Examination Papers in Plane Geometry Teachers who prepare pupils for college have long been resigned to the fact that many pupils of admitted skill and reliability fail sadly to live up to expectations in the college entrance examinations. Fear of the unknown and a general lack of confidence seem to paralyze their powers. Some gradually recover their wits, but too late to answer all the questions in the given time.

Tools of American Mathematics Teaching, 1800–2000


Book Description

From the blackboard to the graphing calculator, the tools developed to teach mathematics in America have a rich history shaped by educational reform, technological innovation, and spirited entrepreneurship. In Tools of American Mathematics Teaching, 1800–2000, Peggy Aldrich Kidwell, Amy Ackerberg-Hastings, and David Lindsay Roberts present the first systematic historical study of the objects used in the American mathematics classroom. They discuss broad tools of presentation and pedagogy (not only blackboards and textbooks, but early twentieth-century standardized tests, teaching machines, and the overhead projector), tools for calculation, and tools for representation and measurement. Engaging and accessible, this volume tells the stories of how specific objects such as protractors, geometric models, slide rules, electronic calculators, and computers came to be used in classrooms, and how some disappeared.
