It is of great significance to integrate the relevant history of mathematics into mathematics teaching. On the one hand, it can improve students' understanding of mathematics; On the other hand, the process of learning the history of mathematics is the process of talking with giants, which can make students respect knowledge, and at the same time, the short stories in the history of mathematics can stimulate students' interest in learning. Teachers introduce the history of mathematics into teaching to help students understand the development law of mathematics and the source of mathematical knowledge.

First, understand the origin and strengthen understanding

Every formula and theorem needs a generation or even generations of continuous exploration. It is with the painstaking efforts of these predecessors that we can continue to create and discover on the shoulders of giants. Teachers' introduction of knowledge sources in teaching helps students to deepen their understanding of knowledge.

Second, respect the results.

The existing truth and knowledge are the fruits of unremitting exploration by predecessors. Let students know the history of mathematics related to it, and then sprout their desire to learn mathematics.

Third, add interest and strengthen interest.

The history of mathematics can not only enlighten thinking and shape character, but also stimulate students' interest in learning. Many short stories in the history of mathematics are very interesting. Teachers can use these short stories scientifically and reasonably to attract students' attention and stimulate their interest in learning.
