高师院校“数学文化”课程开设情况的调查与分析

Survey on the Mathematical Culture Course at Teachers' College

调查结果显示,“数学文化”作为通识课程,深受高师院校学生的喜爱．数学文化的学习,可以增强学生数学学习的自信心,丰富和深化对数学本质的认识,提高数学的感受性和鉴赏水平;可以促进数学学习价值观的转变:从“考试”导向下的数学学习向“提高自身数学素质”导向下的数学学习转变;可以树立良好的数学教育观念．总体来看,高师院校学生对数学文化的认识比较模糊,相关知识比较贫乏,需要进行教师指导下的系统学习．

The survey shows that Mathematical Culture course is quite popular among the students of teachers＇ college. It may not only improve the students＇ self-confidence of studying mathematics, enrich and deepen how they look at the essence of mathematics, strengthen their impression and appreciation of it, but also help to transform their value of mathematics, and change from the orientation of examination to that of ＂improving the mathematical caliber＂. It may also help to set up the better mathematical education view. In a word, the students of teachers＇ college have relatively more vague and inadequate knowledge of mathematical culture. They need to carry out a systematical study under the direction of their teachers.
