Abstract | This report evaluates motivational materials related to the history of mathematics. Materials produced included plays, written articles, slide-tape presentations, and videotapes. Two of these, plays and written articles, were chosen for intensive study. The study included a survey of teacher opinion, a student questionnaire, and evaluations by mathematics educators, drama critics, and a historian of mathematics of one article and one play. Among the reported findings was that a very favorable opinion of the play, but an appreciably less favorable opinion of the article, was expressed in the teacher survey by a historian of mathematics, and by two mathematics educators. Twelve recommendations are made. (MK) |
