Supporting Noyce Scholars’ Teaching of Mathematics in Rural Elementary Schools

With this issue we are ready to bind together a nother volume of THE ARITHMATIC TEACHER Throughout the year this journal has brought its readers various points of view on curriculum, teacher education, and a pproaches to the teaching of mathematics. It ha been a reporter, reporting the results of research in elementary-school mathematics, noting the implication of these studies for making decisions about the future of mathematics in our elementary schools. It has been a teacher through its pages on which various topics in mathematics were presented. It has served as a source of information about new research, ongoing experimental program, tested ideas to be used in the classroom, and reviews and listing of new books and other teaching materials.

By Products

Education and its cost are being subjected to severe criticism and in many sections of the country leadership is in the hands of those who do not have a broad vision for our schools. The number of failures in our schools, their cost in dollars and cents, and more important the effect of failure on the psychology of the child—these things have been frequently studied but are still fertile fields for consideration. It is perfectly possible that one of the by-products of such studies will be an improvement in our teaching. At no point in our educational structure is there greater opportunity for such studies than in the teaching of mathematics. This is particularly true at the present time when our schools are over crowded with pupils who, because of economic conditions, cannot find work. It is further complicated because the problem of over age pupils in the elementary schools has been solved by promoting to the high school pupils whose only credentials for such promotion is their age.

Teaching Of Mathematics

Arithmetic has been until recently the only branch of Mathematics generally taught in the Primary School; and as this subject deals exclusively with numbers in their simplest and most practical form, it must, in the order of teaching, be the first introduced to the child. The premier place must also be awarded to it when considering the relative importance of the various branches composing the unity of Mathematics.
