What is mathematics and how to teach it?
Journal Title: Studia Psychologiczne - Year 2014, Vol 52, Issue 4
Abstract
It is not exactly known what is mathematics. There is no proper definition. It is not exactly known, how to teach something that we can not define. Mathematics has been changing its form over the millennia of human existence. Today, however, what has been changing over the millennia, is changing in the blink of an eye with the development of computer technologies. Mathematics is a completely different field than it was before. Unfortunately, curriculum creators do not seem to notice that. There is a real problem with the teaching of mathematics in the new digital world. The problem is not only associated with archaic curricula, but also with students growing up in a technologically advanced world and teachers who do not keep up and their mutual relations.
