Peer reviewedVinner, Shlomo – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1975
Two approaches to teaching number concepts and operations are discussed. Their relationships to the foundations of mathematics as well as to the characteristics of the learner are explored. On the basis of this discussion the implicit approach is advocated over the definitial approach. (SD)
