Abstract
THE annual meeting of the Mathematical Association was held at the Institute of Education, London, W.C.I, on January 4–5, under the presidency of Prof. G. N. Watson. Discussions on the place of mathematics in the new central schools, on the interesting and novel suggestion that in the teaching of elementary geometry, solid geometry should precede plane geometry, and on the place of differentials in the teaching of the calculus, showed that the Association has not forgotten its primary purpose, the improvement—if necessary, the reform—of the teaching of elementary mathematics.
