Preparatory Mathematics

DESPITE the great amount of attention focused on the secondary school mathematics curriculum in recent years, there remains a major aspect of the teaching of college preparatory mathematics which has been consistently overlooked. While there seems to be little question that the content and approach of the modern curricula are significant and relevant to the needs and purposes of the future mathematician, engineer, physicist, and statistician, the relevance of the secondary school college preparatory mathematics curriculum to the lives of the future historian, musician, teacher of English, or any articulate layman is doubtful.

Buckminster Fuller

Buckminster Fuller has created a myriad of ideas that are highly appropriate for study at various points in the mathematics curriculum. This article describes some practical, hands-on ways in which Fuller's ideas about geodesic domes are being used in the secondary school mathematics classrooms of the St. Paul public schools.

Proof has traditionally been the touchstone of mathematics—that which distinguishes it from theother sciences. The role and nature of proof in a Standards-based curriculum merit reexaminationin an era of reform. In 1998 a fall issue of the Mathematics Teacher will focus on the theme of proof inall aspects of secondary school mathematics. The Editorial Panel is seeking manuscripts for thisissue.
