Abstract
The year 1999 marked the 10th anniversary of the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics. It also marked the 150th anniversary of the birth of German mathematician Felix Klein, who lived from 1849 to 1925. Although the relation between these two anniversaries may not be obvious, the connection is that Klein, were he still alive today, would probably support the NCTM's Standards. As the year 2000 brings us NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, let us look back to the year 1900 and find Felix Klein at the forefront of a movement to reform mathematics education from rote learning to more meaningful mathematical learning.
