Abstract

Current school mathematics education has various problems. High school students and teachers tend to give priority only to the university entrance exam questions to be solved. Therefore, they bias the practice of solving only the entrance exam questions, and understanding of mathematics concept is not enough. And they lack "an understanding of the utility of mathematics",especially "an understanding of relations between mathematics and daily life". So the purpose of this study is to make the curriculum of teaching analysis. In this paper, we verified the significance and the possibility of multi variable functions (two-variable functions) from educational practice. From the results of the educational practice research, the significance of multi-variable functions in a secondary education stage was verified.
