摘要:
In recent years a growing number of complaints have been made about the mathematical shortcomings of school leavers, mainly but not exclusively by groups of employers. This paper attempts to assess the validity of these views of school mathematics by subjecting employers’ job specifications themselves to detailed analysis. No simple picture emerges but the information presented makes it apparent that in most employment categories employers do not give consistent mathematical job specifications. The implications of this are discussed.
