Resources in Europe of interest to mathematics teachers,

Abstract

Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University. This thesis was written in conjunction with Dennis J. Roberts, Mary Lee McLaughlin and Robert F. Pierce.Statement of the problem: It is the purpose of this thesis to formulate plans for a guided tour throughout Western Europe for secondary-school teachers with emphasis on present and past mathematical and allied science contributions. This study will serve as an answer to four fundamental questions: 1. What are the resources available in Europe of value to mathematics teachers? 2. From the standpoint of marginal utility, which of these would be the most important? 3. where are they to be found? 4. How long would it take to see each of them profitably in a limited amount of time? [TRUNCATED
