In China and in the other countries there is a lot of teachers and scholars has researched the subject about using the history of mathematics in mathematics teaching in the classroom. It has become an important topic in general senior middle school. Compared with the general high school, the mathematics education research of secondary vocational schools (such as vocational high schools) is lagging behind. Secondary vocational schools are also relatively weak in the teaching of math into the study of the history of mathematics.Incorporating history of mathematics into the study of classroom teaching has had on the necessity of research to practice step by step. And pay more attention to incorporate the history of mathematics into the practical application of the classroom. According to the teaching content, teaching objectives and the students, how to rationally combine the history of math with teaching, modify and improve based on feedback is an important topic in the teaching and researching currently. This thesis consists of three parts. Firstly, it comprehensively analyzes the background and references. Secondly, it finds the difference of incorporating the history of mathematics into teaching between the general high school math and secondary vocational schools. Lastly, on this basis, it designs three cases in accordance with the implementation of the specific circumstances and conducts a questionnaire survey. Then it reflects and improves the way of research. The subject carries out in three cases. Case 1: Integrate the history of mathematics into starting lessons. Let students know the course content, as well as the development of mathematics in the history of the position. Stimulate the student's interest in learning so that students will desire to learn the part of contents. Then conduct a questionnaire survey and analyze on the effect of the case. Case 2: using historical data design scenarios, through a strong interest in the story to help students understand and remember the contents of the study. Then conduct a questionnaire survey and analyze on the effect of the case. Case 3: When students encounter difficulties in the course of study, teachers should use the math history to guide students to analyze and sum up the relevant laws, and help them deeply understand the content knowledge. And then, use the homework of students to analyze the implementation of the third case.I hope this study will provide other researchers a reference to the draw. In addition, the subject of research lies open to explore more in theory and practice.
