Abstract: We claim that any conception of mathematics education must contain a part devoted to the definition of concepts. Namely, when we are speaking about any conception of mathematics education we must have clear understanding of words “mathematics” and “education”. Moreover, and this is quite important, we must know precisely what is meant under “mathematics teaching”. This last knowledge we call “conception of mathematics teaching”. After that we propose and examine our own conception of mathematics teaching which we call “the conception of humanitarianly-oriented mathematics teaching”.
