All Math Words Dictionary by David McAdams

All Math Words Dictionary Large Print Edition by David McAdams

All Math Words Dictionary is a dictionary designed for students of pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and intermediate algebra in middle school and high school. It is designed using the four 'C's:

• Concise: Definitions are compact, yet understandable.
• Complete: All words and phrases of interest to students of the target classes are included, plus a few just beyond the scope of the target classes. Tables of symbols and notation, formulas, and units of measurement, plus lists of properties of objects give the student all the information needed to understand the concepts and decipher many word problems.
• Correct: The definitions have been thoroughly reviewed for mathematical correctness.
• Comprehensible: The definitions are written to be understood by students in the target classes. Abundant illustrations aid in understanding.

One of the difficulties many students experience in learning math skills has to do with the fact that an entire language has grown up around math. Students that acquire that language are successful in math studies. Students that do not acquire that language have serious problems with mathematics.

Chinese Education from the Western Viewpoint by Yen Sun Ho

From the introduction: The following pages contain a general survey of the educational development of China up to 1913. The occidental students of educational history generally have a hazy and in­adequate idea of what the term "Chinese education" really connotes. Some speak of the examination system, which forms but a link in the whole chain of the educational development of China, as though it constituted the whole history of Chinese education. While it is true that old Chinese education since the founding of the Appointment System had been of a humanistic type, it does not follow, as Professor Monroe dogmat­ically asserts, that Chinese literature is so inferior to the occidental classical literature that "when the general results upon intellectual life and social develop­ment are considered, there is little basis for comparison."

If Chinese literature has not produced great results upon social and intellectual life, it has been due not to its lack of content-value but to the emphasis laid upon its formal side ...
