The Montana Mathematics Enthusiast Monographs in Mathematics Education Monograph 12, Crossroads in the History of Mathematics and Mathematics Educatio
Angebote / Angebote:
The interaction of the history of mathematics and mathematics education has long been
construed as an esoteric area of inquiry. Much of the research done in this realm has
been under the auspices of the history and pedagogy of mathematics group. However
there is little systematization or consolidation of the existing literature aimed at
undergraduate mathematics education, particularly in the teaching and learning of the
history of mathematics and other undergraduate topics. In this monograph, the chapters
cover topics such as the development of Calculus through the actuarial sciences and map
making, logarithms, the people and practices behind real world mathematics, and fruitful
ways in which the history of mathematics informs mathematics education. The book is meant to serve as a source of
enrichment for undergraduate mathematics majors and for mathematics education courses aimed at teachers.
