Stepping Stones for the 21st Century
Over the years a number of "must read" articles and book chapters have appeared—work that has formed the foundational stepping stones of mathematics education research for the 21st century. Twelve such seminal articles have been reproduced in this book. Each is accompanied by two independent appraisals of the longer term impact of the work within and beyond the mathematics education research community. Collectively these writings cover a wide range of topics and provide a broad overview of the outstanding contributions of Australasian mathematics education research prior to 2000.
International Perspectives on Mathematics Teacher Education
Mathematics teacher education includes the mathematics content teachers need to understand, ways that pedagogical approaches are developed, messages about the nature of mathematics teaching and learning, and interfaces between tertiary preparation and school contexts. Scholars from Sweden, France, Malawi, Singapore, New Zealand, Brazil, the USA, and Canada provide insights for the mathematics education community’s understanding of how teacher educators structure, develop, and implement their respective mathematics teacher education programs. Several themes emerged across the chapters, including: varied approaches to developing culturally responsive pedagogies and/or Indigenous perspectives...
Out of Control
Six hundred-year-old Anna is trying to be a good warden of Earth, but a brain eating parasite is on the loose and it’s all her fault.

The third instalment of The Timeless Julieanna Scott is full of paranormal mayhem as well as colourful cursing.
Sociocultural Research on Mathematics Education
This volume--the first to bring together research on sociocultural aspects of mathematics education--presents contemporary and international perspectives on social justice and equity issues that impact mathematics education. In particular, it highlights the importance of three interacting and powerful factors--gender, social, and cultural dimensions. Sociocultural Research on Mathematics Education: An International Perspective is distinguished in several ways: * It is research based. Chapters report on significant research projects; present a comprehensive and critical summary of the research findings; and offer a critical discussion of research methods and theoretical perspectives undertake...
Mathematical Applications and Modelling
Mathematical Applications and Modelling is the second in the series of the yearbooks of the Association of Mathematics Educators in Singapore. The book is unique as it addresses a focused theme on mathematics education. The objective is to illustrate the diversity within the theme and present research that translates into classroom pedagogies. The book, comprising of 17 chapters, illuminates how application and modelling tasks may help develop the capacity of students to use mathematics in their present and future lives. Several renowned international researchers in the field of mathematical modelling have published their work in the book. The chapters are comprehensive and laden with evidence-based examples for both mathematics educators and classroom teachers. The book is an invaluable contribution towards the emerging field of research in mathematical applications and modelling. It is a must-read for graduate research students and mathematics educators.
Bushwomen
The Bushwomen--women appointed to the inner circle of the president's cabinet and sub-cabinet--are a strange breed. In this bestseller, Flanders investigates how they rose to high office, where they might be headed, and whether their power is a victory for women's equality.
Theorising Teaching in Secondary Classrooms
Theorising Teaching in Secondary Classrooms is for all teachers who wish to fully understand and improve upon their own practice. It encourages you to reflect on and conceptualise your teaching, and helps you understand how your practice is connected to the social, cultural, political and institutional contexts in which you teach.Considering the la
Theory and Practice of Lesson Study in Mathematics
This book brings together and builds on the current research efforts on adaptation, conceptualization, and theorization of Lesson Study (LS). It synthesizes and illustrates major perspectives for theorizing LS and enriches the conceptualization of LS by interpreting the activity as it is used in Japan and China from historical and cultural perspectives. Presenting the practices and theories of LS with practicing teachers and prospective teachers in more than 10 countries, it enables the reader to take a comparative perspective. Finally, the book presents and discusses studies on key aspects of LS such as lesson planning, post-lesson discussion, guiding theories, connection between research a...
Mathematics Teaching Practice
Mathematics; Clarifying the distinction between mathematical research and mathematics education, this book offers hundreds of suggestions for making small and medium sized changes for lectures, tutorials, task design, or problem solving. Here is guidance and inspiration for effective mathematics teaching in a modern technological environment, directed to teachers who are unhappy with results or experience, or those now in teacher training or new to the profession. Commencing with a range of student behaviours and attitudes that have struck and amazed tutors and lecturers, Professor Mason offers a wealth of partial diagnoses, followed by specific advice and suggestions for remedial actions. - Offers suggestions for making small and medium-sized changes for lectures, tutorials, task design, or problem solving - Provides guidance and inspiration for effective mathematics teaching in a modern technological environment - Offers a wealth of partial diagnoses, followed by specific advice and suggestions for remedial actions
