(2) He believes that mathematics is essentially a human activity, and students may repeat the process of human mathematical discovery. The traditional mathematics education centered on teaching "ready-made results" and characterized by "indoctrination" must be changed. Flanden pointed out that this change should start with the process of how to make students take the initiative to learn mathematics and participate in mathematics education. Mathematics education needs development, and mathematics and mathematics learning as education should be understood from a new perspective. In the final analysis, mathematics is a human activity, so mathematics as education should also be treated as a human activity. "Mathematics in school is not a closed system, but mathematics as a human activity and a mathematical process starting from real life ..." Students have "potential discovery ability", and their own way of thinking and behavior already has some characteristics of teachers and even researchers, so it is possible to repeat the activities of human mathematics discovery on them. Mathematics education should develop this potential, so that the informal mathematical knowledge and mathematical thinking that already exist in students' minds can rise and develop into scientific conclusions and realize the "rediscovery" of mathematics. Mathematics education should guide students to repeat the process of human mathematics discovery and realize mathematics rediscovery and re-creation.
(3) He believes that mathematics education should start from the real life that students are familiar with, and take this as the starting point and the end point. According to Friedenthal's viewpoint, mathematics education can't proceed from the perfect mathematical system as the final result, and can't be carried out by embedding some abstract mathematical structures into students who are far away from real life. Mathematics education should start from students' familiar real life, follow the trajectory of human activities in the process of mathematical discovery, from problems in life to mathematical problems, from concrete problems to abstract concepts, from special relationships to general laws, and gradually learn mathematics and acquire knowledge through students' own discoveries. After acquiring abstract mathematical knowledge, we can apply them to new practical problems in time. In this way, mathematics education can better communicate the relationship between mathematics in life and mathematics in class, help students understand and love mathematics, and make mathematics a useful skill in life.
