Amongst Mathematicians: Teaching and Learning Mathematics at University Level
(Mathematics Teacher Education)
By Elena Nardi



  • Publisher: Springer
  • Number Of Pages: 341
  • Publication Date: 2007-11-16
  • ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0387371419
  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780387371412
  • Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:

Amongst Mathematicians offers a unique perspective on the ways in which mathematicians perceive their students' learning, teach and reflect on their teaching practice; also on how they perceive the often fragile relationship between the communities of mathematics and mathematics education.

Elena Nardi employs two fictional, yet entirely data-grounded, characters to create a conversation on these important issues. While personas are created, the facts incorporated into their stories are based on large bodies of data including intense focused group interviews with mathematicians and extensive analyses of students' written work. This book demonstrates the pedagogical potential that lies in collaborative undergraduate mathematics education research that engages mathematicians, researchers and students. Nardi also addresses the need for action in undergraduate mathematics education and offers a discourse for reform through demonstrating the feasibility and potential of collaboration between mathematicians and mathematics education researchers.

Amongst Mathematicians is of interest to both the mathematics and mathematics education communities including university teachers, teacher educators, undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers.​

  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781412911719
  • Binding: Paperback


Product Description:


‘Mason, Graham, and Johnston-Wilder have admirably succeeded in casting most of school algebra in terms of generalisation activity? not just the typical numerical and geometric pattern-based work, but also solving quadratics and simultaneous equations, graphing equations, and factoring. The authors raise our awareness of the scope of generalization and of the power of using this as a lens not just for algebra but for all of mathematics!’ - Professor Carolyn Kieran, Departement de Mathematiques, Universite du Quebec a Montreal

Algebra has always been a watershed for pupils learning mathematics. This book will enable you to think about yourself as a learner of algebra in a new way, and thus to teach algebra more successfully, overcoming difficulties and building upon skills that all learners have.

This book is based on teaching principles developed by the team at The Open University's Centre for Mathematics Education which has a 20-year track record of innovative approaches to teaching and learning algebra. Written for teachers working with pupils aged 7-16, it includes numerous tasks ready for adaption for your teaching and discusses principles that teachers have found useful in preparing and conducting lessons.

This is a 'must have' resource for all teachers of mathematics, primary or secondary, and their support staff. Anyone who wishes to create an understanding and enthusiasm for algebra, based upon firm research and effective practice, will enjoy this book.

Developing Students Statistical Reasoning: Connecting Research and Teaching Practice
By Joan B. Garfield, Dani Ben-Zvi



  • Publisher: Springer
  • Number Of Pages: 420
  • Publication Date: 2008-09-23
  • ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1402083823
  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781402083822
  • Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:


Increased attention is being paid to the need for statistically educated citizens: statistics is now included in the K-12 mathematics curriculum, increasing numbers of students are taking courses in high school, and introductory statistics courses are required in college. However, increasing the amount of instruction is not sufficient to prepare statistically literate citizens. A major change is needed in how statistics is taught. To bring about this change, three dimensions of teacher knowledge need to be addressed: their knowledge of statistical content, their pedagogical knowledge, and their statistical-pedagogical knowledge, i.e., their specific knowledge about how to teach statistics. This book is written for mathematics and statistics educators and researchers. It summarizes the research and highlights the important concepts for teachers to emphasize, and shows the interrelationships among concepts. It makes specific suggestions regarding how to build classroom activities, integrate technological tools, and assess students learning.

This is a unique book. While providing a wealth of examples through lessons and data sets, it is also the best attempt by members of our profession to integrate suggestions from research findings with statistics concepts and pedagogy. The book s message about the importance of listening to research is loud and clear, as is its message about alternative ways of teaching statistics. This book will impact instructors, giving them pause to consider: "Is what I m doing now really the best thing for my students? What could I do better?"

J. Michael Shaughnessy, Professor, Dept of Mathematical Sciences, Portland State University, USA

This is a much-needed text for linking research and practice in teaching statistics. The authors have provided a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art in statistics education research. The insights they have gleaned from the literature should be tremendously helpful for those involved in teaching and researching introductory courses.

Randall E. Groth, Assistant Professor of Mathematics Education, Salisbury University, USA​

On the Teaching of Linear Algebra
(Mathematics Education Library)
By J.-L. Dorier



  • Publisher: Springer
  • Number Of Pages: 312
  • Publication Date: 2001-01-01
  • ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0792365399
  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780792365396
  • Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:


This book presents the state-of-the-art research on the teaching and learning of linear algebra in the first year of university, in an international perspective. It aims at giving to university teachers in charge of linear algebra courses a wide range of information from works including theoretical and experimental issues. These works try to better understand the meaning of linear algebra in an epistemological approach, as well as the constraints and the difficulties in its teaching and learning. They also present teaching designs with the analysis of their experimentation. However, it would be vain to expect a miraculous way for teaching linear algebra, rather elements of reflection are given to the reader with keys for his or her own experimentation. Through the variety of the works presented, this book also discusses theoretical issues which are consistent for all research in maths education at tertiary level.​

Developing Thinking in Statistics
(Published in association with The Open University)
By Alan Graham



  • Publisher: Paul Chapman Educational Publishing
  • Number Of Pages: 288
  • Publication Date: 2006-03-03
  • ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1412911672
  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781412911672
  • Binding: Paperback


Product Description:


'This book should prove to be an important addition to the relatively few publications that exist on statistical thinking. It very nicely encourages the reader to take an active learning approach through simultaneously promoting pedagogy with knowledge and skills enhancement in statistics. Understanding what the subject is for and what it can do are crucial in statistical education - by getting the reader to think statistically Mr Graham has provided us with a very readable book that helps to dispel the poor reputation that statistics has acquired over many years' - Professor Neville Davies, Director, Royal Statistical Society Centre for Statistical Education, Nottingham Trent University

Statistics is a key area of the school mathematics curriculum where maths and the real world meet. Although potentially a subject where teaching can be motivating and relevant to everyday concerns, it is often seen as boring and involving largely mechanical calculations.

This book will enable teachers and others interested in statistical thinking to become excited and inspired by the big ideas of statistics and, in turn, teach them enthusiastically learners.

Designed to heighten awareness of statistical ideas, the book explores key themes within statistics using ideas developed by the influential team at The Open University's Centre for Mathematics Education. Themes include:

· Measurement

· Variation

· Randomness

· Uncertainty

Arranged in an accessible task-based format, this is an essential text for all secondary maths teachers and students of maths education. It is a comprehensive book that will illuminate and inspire interest in the subject, based on innovative use of ICT, engaging narrative, firm research and good practice.

Developing Thinking in Statistics is a set book on the Open University Course ME626 Developing Statistical Thinking, part of the Graduate Diploma in Mathematics Education. (20060623)​

University Science and Mathematics Education in Transition
By Ole Skovsmose, Paola Valero, Ole Ravn Christensen



  • Publisher: Springer
  • Number Of Pages: 400
  • Publication Date: 2008-11-14
  • ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0387098283
  • ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780387098289
  • Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:


Traditionally, educational studies in mathematics education and science education have looked at change from within the scientific disciplines and in the closed context of the classroom. Although educational change is ultimately implemented in everyday teaching and learning situations, other parallel dimensions influencing these situations cannot be forgotten. An understanding of the actual potentialities and limitations of educational transformations are dependent on the network of educational, cultural, administrative and ideological views and practices that permeate and constitute science and mathematics education in universities today.

University Science and Mathematics Education in Transition contributes to an understanding of the multiple aspects and dimensions of the transition of science and mathematics education in the current information society. ​
