新中国中学数学教材内容变革举要

Illustration on the Content Innovation of Secondary School Mathematics Textbooks Since the Foundation of the People’s Republic of China

自新中国成立以来，我国中学数学教材内容经历了几次重大变革。经过几代数学教育工作者半个多世纪的努力，在教学内容的选择标准和教学内容的与时俱进上，都形成了一定的“中国特色”。其中，平面几何、函数等核心内容的变革，以及微积分、概率与统计等内容的引入过程都是反映这一特色的典型事例，从中可以概括出内容变革的一些基本规律，如：传统内容是经典的，具有基本的重要性；新增内容要经过长期实验；中国传统数学的机械化体系应受到高度重视；等等。

Since the foundation of the People＇s Republic of China, the contents of secondary school mathematics textbooks have experienced several times of innovation. Through the half century efforts of the mathematics educators from generation to generation, the selection criteria of teaching contents and the teaching contents keeping with the times have developed the Chinese characteristics, for example, the innovation of plane geometry, function, the introduction of calculus, probability and statistics. Some basic regulations can be summarized as the following ： the traditional contents are classics and have the basic importance; the new-added contents need long-period of experiment; great importance should be attached to the mechanical svstem of traditional mathematics.
