Summary: | "The culture of the mathematics classroom is becoming an increasingly salient topic of discussion in mathematics education. Studying and changing what happens in the mathematics classroom allow researchers and educators to recognize the social character of mathematical pedagogy and the relationship between the classroom and the culture at large. This international and interdisciplinary volume outlines the emerging paradigms of socioconstructivist and sociocultural perspectives on this topic, and it reports findings gained in both research and practice." "As an examination of the social nature of mathematical teaching and learning, the volume should appeal both to educational psychologists and to cultural and social anthropologists and sociologists."--Jacket. |
