What is modern mathematics?
We ask this question often to initiate a discussion wherever there is interest. Repeating it should not bore us, for, as yet, no one has found a concluding answer. And, as we get more insight, we tend to revise and improve our answers. To date, in the light of the work of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics during the past 47 years, ‘modern mathematics’ means improved mathematics.
