Examples from English female mathematics exercise books of the 19th century
This study compares the mathematical examples tackled by females and males in 19th century UK schools. It is based on a private collection of 101 mathematical manuscripts and compared with a collection of 231 similar exercise books at the University of Leicester. A summary of female mathematical education in England at the time will provide a background for the research. Illustrations will be given covering some of the associated textbooks on which these manuscript books are based. A comparison will be made between the problems given to each gender and some mathematical textbooks written specifically for females will be examined to identify any specific differences between them and the more widely used textbooks of the time. The purpose of such manuscript books will be considered. Based on the evidence examined, the ratio of such books in existence is 1:4, females to males.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Mathematical Behavior solicits original research on the learning and teaching of mathematics. We are interested especially in basic research, research that aims to clarify, in detail and depth, how mathematical ideas develop in learners. Over three decades, our experience confirms a founding premise of this journal: that mathematical thinking, hence mathematics learning as a social enterprise, is special. It is special because mathematics is special, both logically and psychologically. Logically, through the way that mathematical ideas and methods have been built, refined and organized for centuries across a range of cultures; and psychologically, through the variety of ways people today, in many walks of life, make sense of mathematics, develop it, make it their own.
