Ethnomathematics and its Diverse Approaches for Mathematics Education
This book addresses numerous issues related to ethnomathematics and diverse approaches to it in the context of mathematics education. To help readers better understand the development of ethnomathematics, it discusses its objectives and assumptions with regard to promoting an ethics of respect, solidarity, and cooperation across and for all cultures. In turn, the book addresses a range of aspects including pedagogical action, culturally relevant pedagogy, innovative approaches to ethnomathematics, and the role of ethnomathematics in mathematics education. Ethnomathematics offers educators a valuable framework for transforming mathematics so that it can more actively contribute to realizing the dream of a just and humane society. As such, its primary goal is to forge mathematics into a powerful tool to help people create a society characterized by dignity for all, and in which iniquity, arrogance, violence, and bigotry have no place.
Decentralized Capacity Building
A new definition of capacity-building is evolving--one tha t is veering away from conventional ideas of organizational engineering . As it encompasses the broad environment or system in which social changes occur, capacitybuilding has become more complex, yet also more rewarding . Today, some of the buzzwords are empowerment, social capital, enabling environment. Moreover, culture, values and power rela tions that influence and motivate organizations and individuals are gaining more attention. There is respect and even appreciation now for informal patterns of personal and culture-bound organizational behavior- the unwritten rules of the game, so to speak. As well, there is the urge to complement, not replace, indigenous ha bits and practices. All of these are progressively coalescing into a body of concepts called capacity development.
The Write Therapy
You are reading this book because I found a way to fill my empty soul, and that is by writing. This gentle activity is a great means to express my joy and exercise my mind, and to console myself from personal problems and stresses including my bitterness about my failures in life and my sadness over the evils happening in this society. But I am not a writer. I have not written any novel or short story, or any article published in a book or a magazine. I have not written a single poem for the world to read, not a memoir in honor of somebody whose life I wish to cherish. But, I have long wanted to write a book; I just didn’t know how to do it. And, even if I wrote small pieces, I didn’t think they could qualify for publication, yet I have always been struck with the idea of writing. I love the cuteness of poetry and the entertaining power of stories. In this book, you will learn that personal writing can turn into book publishing, and that writing your personal reflections on various issues and subjects could be a way of sharing life messages to those who need them. It has been a tremendous task, but the determination to write and share my story made this book a reality.
Indigenous Methodologies, Research and Practices for Sustainable Development
This book states that whilst academic research has long been grounded on the idea of western or scientific epistemologies, this often does not capture the uniqueness of Indigenous contexts, and particularly as it relates to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs were announced in 2015, accompanied by 17 goals and 169 targets. These goals are the means through which Agenda 2030 for sustainable development is to be pursued and realised over the next 15 years, and the contributions of Indigenous peoples are essential to achieving these goals. Indigenous peoples can be found in practically every region of the world, living on ancestral homelands in m...
