Teachers need to be well prepared in order to understand contemporary mathematics and to provide worthwhile learning experiences for their elementary school youngsters. As a result of changes that have occurred in mathematics and elementary school mathematics instruction, efforts are being made to improve the preservice and in-service education of elementary teachers. Two examples are The Arithmetic Teacher's “Forum on Teacher Preparation,” and the 1967 summer conference at East Lansing, cosponsored by the Science and Mathematics Teaching Center of Michigan State University and the National Science Foundation.1 |
