English The paper discusses the reasons why students may be deficient in mathematics on entering universities and investigates methods of diagnosis and remedy with the help of illuminative evaluation techniques. The bulk of the paper concentrates on the improvement of manipulative skills and concludes that more deficiencies arise from students having forgotten material which they had learned before than from any other cause, and that deficiencies due to this cause, while readily remediable, can cause great difficulties later, if not remedied early. Deficiencies due to failure of understanding concepts and notation are discussed briefly in an appendix by J. Nuttall. |
