Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the pedagogical history of arithmetic, from its Greek origins to the influence of the Industrial Revolution. The author traces the evolution of teaching practices, curriculum content, and the underlying philosophies that shaped the subject. By examining the social and cultural forces that drove these changes, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of arithmetic and its enduring significance in education. The author argues that early arithmetic instruction focused on abstract theory and was largely inaccessible to children. As society's needs changed, the focus shifted towards practical applications and problem-solving. The book also explores how the disciplinary end in our schools, placed greater emphasis upon analysis and explanation than upon ability to do. The social end, on the other hand, emphasized the importance of preparing pupils for life, which shifted the center of attention from the subject itself to the learner. The author shows how these changing aims led to significant shifts in the organization, content, and methods of arithmetic instruction. This book offers a valuable resource for educators, historians, and anyone curious about the development of arithmetic education. It provides a deeper understanding of the subject's evolution and offers insights into how we can continue to improve its teaching and learning.
