Rf03: International Perspectives on the Nature of Mathematical Knowledge for Secondary Teaching: Progress and Dilemmas
نویسندگان
چکیده
This research forum addresses the question: what is the nature of the mathematical knowledge that is needed for secondary teaching? Six international contributors respond by making two claims (one related to an area where progress in research has been made and the other related to dilemmas facing researchers): preparing teachers, teaching practice, and research designs and methodologies. This structure provides a way of focusing the discussion among forum participants and a means to develop international points of view on the nature of the mathematical knowledge that is needed for secondary teaching.
