Philosophy
|
|
The study of mathematics should contribute to a
better
understanding and appreciation of a contemporary society.
|
|
|
In order to fulfill the needs of the individual and
of society one
should attain the highest degree of mathematical
competence. |
|
|
Systematic provisions will be made for adapting
curriculum content
and instructional procedures to differences in the
interests, abilities
and needs of the pupils as well as differences in
the rate at which
they learn. |
|
|
In order to make mathematics more meaningful,
emphasis will be
placed in its logic, aesthetics, systems and basic
concepts. |
|
|
Mathematics will be integrated into other fields of
study as much as possible. |
|
|
Mathematics should enhance the student’s ability to
function in a technological society.
