5 Foreword Education is a continuous process leading from primary school right through to Higher Education and beyond. Nowhere is it more essential to maintain coherence in the process than in Mathematics where its hierarchical nature and multi-faceted applications require careful attention. Over the past twenty years, education at all levels has been in a constant state of flux and changes at one level have impacted on other levels. In particular, changes in the final school years have forced universities to reassess their courses with the aim of making them more suitable for the incoming students. This book documents the ideas that have been discussed in this context at the Undergraduate Mathematics Teaching Conferences. Since the problems of mathematics education are still very much alive, the material presented here may help those who are currently grappling with the issues. Michael Atiyah May 1997
