A falta de professores na área da Matemática e o abandono da licenciatura e da docência são problemáticas de relevância nacional, por isso compreender as expectativas dos egressos do curso de licenciatura em Matemática em relação à carreira docente, bem como as suas motivações acerca do abandono da pro?ssão, é o tema central desta obra. Produzido com base no pensar, ler, escrever, interpretar e analisar, o livro é organizado, de início, na revisita à teorização sobre formação docente, mal-estar docente e políticas públicas para a valorização e formação docente; e, depois, no formato de textos de campo e textos de pesquisa. A construção dos textos de campo ocorre ...
O leitor encontrará neste livro o resultado da investigação desenvolvida em uma pesquisa de Doutorado realizada no Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação – PPE na Universidade Estadual de Maringá – UEM no período de 2013 a 2017, cujo objetivo foi investigar os efeitos de uma intervenção pedagógica construtivista com jogos, mais especificamente com o jogo Katamino, e construção de possíveis e do necessário em relação à aprendizagem de conteúdos escolares sobre noções espaciais. A partir do ponto de vista da teoria piagetiana, referencial teórico-metodológico desta pesquisa, o jogo de regras em um contexto educativo, pode ser um desencadeador de reflexão nos sujeit...

Will understanding our brains help us to know our minds? Or is there an unbridgeable distance between the work of neuroscience and the workings of human consciousness? In a remarkable exchange between neuroscientist Jean-Pierre Changeux and philosopher Paul Ricoeur, this book explores the vexed territory between these divergent approaches--and comes to a deeper, more complex perspective on human nature. Ranging across diverse traditions, from phrenology to PET scans and from Spinoza to Charles Taylor, What Makes Us Think? revolves around a central issue: the relation between the facts (or "what is") of science and the prescriptions (or "what ought to be") of ethics. Changeux and Ricoeur ask:...
SWEET is the third book in the Contours of the Heart series
This book considers some of the outstanding questions regarding language and communication in the teaching and learning of mathematics – an established theme in mathematics education research, which is growing in prominence. Recent research has demonstrated the wide range of theoretical and methodological resources that can contribute to this area of study, including those drawing on cross-disciplinary perspectives influenced by, among others, sociology, psychology, linguistics, and semiotics. Examining language in its broadest sense to include all modes of communication, including visual and gestural as well as spoken and written modes, it features work presented and discussed in the Lang...
This book will address the discussion on online distance education, teacher education, and how the mathematics is transformed with the Internet, based on examples that illustrate the possibilities of different course models and on the theoretical construct humans-with-media.
The title of the book is Critique as Uncertainty. Thus Ole Skovsmose sees uncertainty as an important feature of any critical approach. He does not assume the existence of any blue prints for social and political improvements, nor that certain theoretical structures can provide solid foundations for a critical activities. For him critique is an open and uncertain activity. This also applies to critical mathematics education. Critique as Uncertainty includes papers Ole Skovsmose already has published as well as some newly written chapters. The book addresses issues about: landscapes of investigations, students’ foregrounds, mathematics education and democracy, mathematics and power. Finally it expresses concerns of a critical mathematics education.
This book comprises the Proceedings of the 12th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-12), which was held at COEX in Seoul, Korea, from July 8th to 15th, 2012. ICME-12 brought together 3500 experts from 92 countries, working to understand all of the intellectual and attitudinal challenges in the subject of mathematics education as a multidisciplinary research and practice. This work aims to serve as a platform for deeper, more sensitive and more collaborative involvement of all major contributors towards educational improvement and in research on the nature of teaching and learning in mathematics education. It introduces the major activities of ICME-12 which have successfull...
Most of us are hooked on something, or have bad habits we can't quite kick or control. Being addicted is simply part of the human condition, but it also has deep emotional and psychological roots. Many of us struggle, often in silence, with our issues about alcohol, drugs, over-the-counter painkillers or food. Or it might be we overwork, staring at too many screens, spending too much money, or using sex and love as drugs. Overcoming Addiction looks at the underlying causes of both chemical and emotional addictions, and helps you to identify the real needs you are trying to fulfil underneath. It also helps you identify how you can help yourself break free from destructive habits, build self-esteem and even give up your addictions for good. In time, you can find new ways of relaxing, of being creative, having fun and relating, without your everyday addictions to lean on.
