This Handbook of Mathematics Teacher Education, the first of its kind, addresses the learning of mathematics teachers at all levels of schooling to teach mathematics, and the provision of activity and programmes in which this learning can take place. It consists of four volumes. VOLUME 3: Participants in Mathematics Teacher Education: Individuals, Teams, Communities and Networks addresses the “who” question of mathematics teacher education. The authors focus on the various kinds of participants in mathematics teacher education, professional development and reform initiatives. The chapters deal with prospective and practising teachers as well as with teacher educators as learners, and with schools, districts and nations as learning systems.
This volume provides new insights on creativity while focusing on innovative methodological approaches in research and practice of integrating technological tools and environments in mathematics teaching and learning. This work is being built on the discussions at the mini-symposium on Creativity and Technology at the International Conference on Mathematical Creativity and Giftedness (ICMCG) in Denver, USA (2014), and other contributions to the topic. The book emphasizes a diversity of views, a variety of contexts, angles and cultures of thought, as well as mathematical and educational practices. The authors of each chapter explore the potential of technology to foster creative and divergent...
This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. The book presents the Proceedings of the 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13) and is based on the presentations given at the 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13). ICME-13 took place from 24th- 31st July 2016 at the University of Hamburg in Hamburg (Germany). The congress was hosted by the Society of Didactics of Mathematics (Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Mathematik - GDM) and took place under the auspices of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI). ICME-13 brought together about 3.500 mathematics educators from 105 countries, additionally 250 teachers from German...
The premise of the 15th ICMI Study is that teachers are key to students' opportunities to learn mathematics. What teachers of mathematics know, care about, and do is a product of their experiences and socialization, together with the impact of their professional education. The Professional Education and Development of Teachers of Mathematics assembles important new international work- development, research, theory and practice - concerning the professional education of teachers of mathematics. As it examines critical areas to reveal what is known and what significant questions and problems warrant collective attention, the volume also contributes to the strengthening of the international community of mathematics educators. The Professional Education and Development of Teachers of Mathematics is of interest to the mathematics education community as well as to other researchers, practitioners and policy makers concerned with the professional education of teachers.
Depuis les années 1960 et la Révolution tranquille, jamais la profession enseignante au Québec n'a connu une situation de transformation aussi importante que celle qu'elle vit présentement. Depuis le début des années 1990, les changements se succèdent à un rythme accéléré et parfois essoufflant : nouveaux programmes universitaires de formation des maîtres, allongement considérable de la formation pratique à l'enseignement, tenue des Etats généraux sur l'éducation conduisant à la révision de toutes les parties du système éducatif, nouveaux programmes scolaires qui seront implantés prochainement, création des réseaux des écoles associées (pour la formation des futurs ...
Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux formateurs, enseignants et didacticiens œuvrant de près ou de loin auprès des élèves dits en difficulté d’apprentissage en mathématiques. Conçu à la suite d’un symposium de l’Acfas, l’ouvrage s’insère dans la poursuite des réflexions didactiques en lien avec les fondements et les pratiques d’évaluation-intervention auprès des élèves ayant un potentiel mathématique, mais connaissant des difficultés en situation d’apprentissage. L’introduction écrite par Jean-Luc Dorier expose la genèse de cet ouvrage, introduit les contributions des auteurs et apporte un point de vue international sur les préoccupations actuelles entourant l’in...
Qu'ils soient sociaux ou scolaires, qu'ils soient orientés vers l'enfant ou l'intervenant, les contextes d'intervention favorables aux jeunes en grande difficulté sont nombreux. Ceux présentés dans cet ouvrage collectif - programmes de formation; programmes d'intervention avec les parents, les jeunes et la communauté; compétences plus particulières à développer chez les jeunes ou chez les parents; approches pédagogiques - montrent cette volonté qu'ont les chercheurs d'améliorer le sort des enfants ayant des difficultés. Les recherches ont toutes été réalisées en partenariat avec les milieux de pratique, partenariats indispensables à l'amélioration du quotidien de ces enfants.
The four sections in this Third International Handbook are concerned with: (a) social, political and cultural dimensions in mathematics education; (b) mathematics education as a field of study; (c) technology in the mathematics curriculum; and (d) international perspectives on mathematics education. These themes are taken up by 84 internationally-recognized scholars, based in 26 different nations. Each of section is structured on the basis of past, present and future aspects. The first chapter in a section provides historical perspectives (“How did we get to where we are now?”); the middle chapters in a section analyze present-day key issues and themes (“Where are we now, and what recent events have been especially significant?”); and the final chapter in a section reflects on policy matters (“Where are we going, and what should we do?”). Readership: Teachers, mathematics educators, ed.policy makers, mathematicians, graduate students, undergraduate students. Large set of authoritative, international authors.
