For the last 30 years the Symposium on Elementary Mathematics Teaching (SEMT) has provided cutting edge excellence in research in elementary school mathematics education. From this wealth of material this book encapsulates the trends and explores how its plenary and research papers engage with more general research for the wider mathematics education community. Trends across time are exposed and investigated while aspects of research into elementary mathematics teaching and learning are particular foci. With a diverse and truly global list of outstanding authors, this book grounds the presentations of SEMT in current practices world-wide. Each chapter features worked examples, case studies, activities, as well as a wealth of references on all topics canvassed by the authors. Furthermore each chapter is embedded within its historical setting. Together this book is an outstanding contribution to the literature on elementary mathematics education.
This book breaks through in the field of mathematical creativity and giftedness. It suggests directions for closing the gap between research in the field of mathematics education and research in the field of creativity and giftedness. It also outlines a research agenda for further research and development in the field. The book consists of a balanced set of chapters by mathematicians, mathematics educators, educational psychologists and educational researchers. The authors of different chapters accept dynamic conception of creativity and giftedness. The book provides analysis of cognitive, affective and social factors associated with the development of creativity in all students and with the...

From the 1960s (when the advent of what many call the postmodern style made establishing genres more difficult) to the present day, writers have been incorporating science--not only the commonly thought of science and technology but also the "soft" sciences such as psychology and sociology--into what was previously considered mainstream fiction. This book examines works by Thomas Pynchon, Doris Lessing, and others who incorporate science in fiction and exemplify the movement of mainstream fiction writers toward a new genre termed "span." It also examines works by some science fiction writers who are edging closer to the border of science fiction and slowly over into span. This book maps the boundaries of the new span genre of fiction and thus helps define texts that fall outside the realms of mainstream and science fiction. Diagrams are included and a bibliography and index.
