Mathematics as a self-discipline has an extended heritage, rising from many cultures, with a really common personality. Mathematicians through the global have a essentially universal figuring out of the character of arithmetic and of its principal difficulties and strategies. learn mathematicians in any a part of the area are a part of a cohesive highbrow group that communicates fluently.

Among corporations dedicated to arithmetic schooling, The foreign fee on Mathematical guideline (ICMI) is detailed due to its shut ties to the maths group. the good demanding situations now dealing with arithmetic schooling world wide call for a deeper and extra delicate involvement of disciplinary mathematicians than we've, either within the paintings of academic advancements and in study at the nature of training and learning.

However we have at least identified some important issues, and we have expressed some views on what might happen and what we would like to see happen in future. The issues raised at the IRT are: What are the major changes in education and in mathematics education? How does technology affect instruction and curriculum? What is the impact of TIMSS? How should education train students for workplace? How much mathematics is sufficient for primary teachers? How real could real life applications be? What do we look forward to in the 21st century?

However, even though our field has reached a first stage of maturity, it is definitely not marked by coherence and unity, let alone uniformity, but by considerable complexity and diversification in perspectives and paradigms.

The view presented here is an outcome of the author’s activities (study and experience) in his dual specialty for many years: 45 years of research in functional analysis and its application and 35 years of mathematics education. 1 Motivation of the Present Paper Needless to say, the mathematics education at every school-level should be beneficial to the learners’ future for their life and work. The intellectual activities of humankind in the 21st century require mathematical backgrounds than in any century before.
