Examples of admissible simplification of mathematical theories

Examples of admissible simplification of mathematical theories Purpose – The purpose of this paper is simplification of some mathematical theories for the needs of school education. Design/methodology/approach – This work is a result of long‐lasting regular observations of extra‐curriculum classes with primary school pupils. This research is based on some maxima given in a paper written by Zvonkin. Findings – This work gives examples of simplified math models that satisfy the claimed concept, accompanied with the set of problems attainable for primary school pupils. Originality/value – This work represents a set of criteria, with the guidance of which, any mathematician would be capable of creating a set of problems that would lead the pupils into the area of his research not as observers, but as participants. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Kybernetes Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is simplification of some mathematical theories for the needs of school education. Design/methodology/approach – This work is a result of long‐lasting regular observations of extra‐curriculum classes with primary school pupils. This research is based on some maxima given in a paper written by Zvonkin. Findings – This work gives examples of simplified math models that satisfy the claimed concept, accompanied with the set of problems attainable for primary school pupils. Originality/value – This work represents a set of criteria, with the guidance of which, any mathematician would be capable of creating a set of problems that would lead the pupils into the area of his research not as observers, but as participants.
