Abstract:
The main aim of this report is to set forth a survey of the Romanian Mathematics Education at the present time. We emphasize some of the recent, specific and significant Romanian methods concerning the teaching and learning of Mathematics, starting from pre-school and primary level to the university Mathematics education, the role of national and international mathematical competitions, the education of mathematics' teachers, the formation of researchers in mathematics, their contributions and perspectives, the mathematics education in society and culture, the technology in mathematics education, links between research and practice, topical developments and for future together with other related topics. In this context, Mathematics is viewed from “the music of reason” to “the queen of all sciences” and now, unanimously recognized, as “the foundation of science and technology” and the “world language of sciences”.
