A Note on Lagrange's Theorem.
Johnson, Wells
American Mathematical Monthly, v90 n2 p132-33 Feb 1983
An approach to teaching the proof of Lagrange's theorem reverses the traditional path of instruction. The route described first teaches that the order of an element always divides the order of the group, then moves to proving that the order of a subgroup divides the order of the group. (MP)
