| Summary | "The Teaching of Geometry" by David Eugene Smith is an educational publication written in the early 20th century. This work explores the methodology and philosophy behind teaching geometry, emphasizing the importance of the subject in the education curriculum and advocating for its evolution rather than drastic reforms. It focuses on the needs and concerns of teachers and proposes ways to improve the teaching of geometry to better engage students. At the start of the text, the author discusses the current state of geometry education in America, laying out various debates among educators regarding its content and methods of instruction. He reflects on the balance between traditional approaches and modern necessities, recognizing the diverse opinions within the teaching community. Smith is particularly focused on providing a framework that appeals to both progressive teachers eager for improvement and those who prefer established methods, with an overarching goal of making geometry interesting and relevant to students.
