On the history of units in French elementary school arithmetic: The case of proportionality
The measurement of magnitudes was at the foundation of numbers and calculation in academic mathematics until the 19th century. It provided units and the concrete and abstract numbers that formed the basis of school arithmetic up to the mid-20th century in France. Our analysis of changes in teaching resources for proportionality (late 19th to the early 21st century) documents how the disappearance of magnitudes in academic knowledge was followed by the loss of the differentiation of the conceptual complexity of mathematical ideas related to proportionality. These changes made teaching and learning about proportionality considerably more difficult, and we later witness their gradual, but not yet systematic, reversal.
期刊介绍:
Historia Mathematica publishes historical scholarship on mathematics and its development in all cultures and time periods. In particular, the journal encourages informed studies on mathematicians and their work in historical context, on the histories of institutions and organizations supportive of the mathematical endeavor, on historiographical topics in the history of mathematics, and on the interrelations between mathematical ideas, science, and the broader culture.
