| The history of mathematics as a part of mathematical sciences.its purpose is to study Mathematical development and its internal rules.History of Mathematics has a extensive system involving mathematics,history,philosophy and sociology.With the development of mathematical sciences,history of mathematics has been paid widespread attention at home and abroad.Asking students to study history of mathematics content,on the one hand to change the traditional mode of teaching mathematics;on the other hand interesting historical story will help stimulate students’ interest in learning and creative thinking habits of aesthetic consciousness during elementary period.In this study,after the access to large amounts of information theory,the theoretical analysis starts.Writer noted that the history of mathematics learning can enrich students’ knowledge of mathematics abstract representations and help students understand the basic concepts of mathematics,the history of mathematics provide a variety of materials that help teachers transform static abstract mathematical knowledge into a vivid math activities.In teaching activities,students can grasp mathematical thinking profoundly and establish a correct mathematical concepts through personal experience and promote the development of mathematics education.Based on the theoretical analysis,the author conducted research into mathematics history in the elementary school respectively,teachers and students of these two aspects of the investigation.According to the survey we learned that students are generally very interested in the history of mathematics,but the contact history of mathematics in the classroom learning opportunities are few and with increasing age of the students,the students themselves will take more way to learn the history of mathematics.But also it reflects some of the following questions:teachers themselves lack knowledge of the history of mathematics and do not know the full value of history of mathematics content and content and methods of history of mathematics teaching are of single issues.Combined with the actual situation,the author takes the class of using letters to represent numbers as a example showing the prefect combination between on the history mathematics and mathematics teaching analyzing the practical value of mathematics histoiy.Finally,the author puts forward effective strategies to promote teaching of mathematics history covering teachers teaching and teaching materials.For teachers they need to change their traditional view of mathematics and use a wide range of evaluation of students.And learn by studying ways to improve their mathematical literacy.For teaching,teachers have to contact the student’s mathematical knowledge in simple terms,infiltrate of mathematical methods and cultivate students’ rational spirit when teachers teach the history of mathematics.For teaching materials,mathematics educator,mathematics teaching and research workers and teachers should work hard together to develop making rendered content diversification diversification of forms as well as rationalization of the structure. |
