Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is made up of 21 chapters from 25 presentations at the 23rd MAVI conference in Essen, which featured Alan Schoenfeld as keynote speaker. Of major interest to MAVI participants is the relationship between teachers’ professed beliefs and classroom practice. The first section is dedicated to classroom practices and beliefs regarding those practices, taking a look at prospective or practicing teachers’ views of different practices such as decision-making, the roles of explanations, problem-solving, patterning, and the use of play. The focus of the second section in this book deals with teacher change, which is notoriously difficult, even when the teachers themselves are interested in changing their practice. The third section of this book centers on the undercurrents of teaching and learning mathematics, what rises in various situations, causing tensions and inconsistencies. The last section of this book takes a look at emerging themes in affect-related research. In this section, papers discuss attitudes towards assessment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tina Besley has edited this collection which examines and critiques the ways that different countries, particularly Commonwealth and European states, assess the quality of educational research in publicly funded higher education institutions. Such assessment often ranks universities, departments and even individual academics, and plays an important role in determining the allocation of funding to support university research.

Download or read book Affect and Mathematics Education written by Markku S. Hannula and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-03 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book, inspired by the ICME 13 topic study group “Affect, beliefs and identity in mathematics education”, presents the latest trends in research in the area. Following an introduction and a survey chapter providing a concise overview of the state-of-art in the field of mathematics-related affect, the book is divided into three main sections: motivation and values, engagement, and identity in mathematics education. Each section comprises several independent chapters based on original research, as well as a reflective commentary by an expert in the area. Collectively, the chapters present a rich methodological spectrum, from narrative analysis to structural equation modelling. In the final chapter, the editors look ahead to future directions in the area of mathematics-education-related affect. It is a timely resource for all those interested in the interaction between affect and mathematics education.
Download or read book Proficiency and Beliefs in Learning and Teaching Mathematics written by Yeping Li and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-04 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efforts to improve mathematics education have led educators and researchers to not only study the nature of proficiency, beliefs, and practices in mathematics learn¬ing and teaching, but also identify and assess possible influences on students’ and teachers’ proficiencies, beliefs, and practices in learning and teaching mathematics. The complexity of these topics has fascinated researchers from various back¬grounds, including psychologists, cognitive or learning scientists, mathematicians, and mathematics educators. Among those researchers, two scholars with a similar background – Alan Schoenfeld in the United States and Günter Törner in Germany, are internationally recognized for their contributions to these topics. To celebrate their 65th birthdays in 2012, this book brought together many scholars to reflect on how their own work has built upon and continued Alan and Günter’s work in mathematics education. The book contains 17 chapters by 33 scholars from six different education systems. This collection describes recent research and provides new insights into these topics of interest to mathematics educators, researchers, and graduate students who wish to learn about the trajectory and direction of research on these issues.

Book excerpt: Mathematics Education identifies some of the most significant issues in mathematics education today. Pulling together relevant articles from authors well-known in their fields of study, the book addresses topical issues such as: gender equity attitude teacher belief and knowledge community of practice autonomy and agency assessment technology. The subject is dealt with in three parts: culture of the mathematics classroom, communication in mathematics classrooms and pupils' and teachers' perceptions. Students on postgraduate courses in mathematics education will find this book a valuable resource. Students on BEd and PGCE courses will also find this a useful source of reference as will teachers of mathematics, mentors and advisers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the first Handbook of Research of Mathematics Teaching and Learning in 1992 and edited by Doug Grouws, research in mathematics education has continued to flourish: moving into new domains, digging more deeply into many enduring questions, and asking new ones. At the same time, mathematics education has continued to mature as a field of study. As the field has matured, there has been growing recognition of the importance of reflecting on what distinguishes the mathematics education research from other fields and on what influences the nature of its activities. During the past dozen or so years, advances in information technology have accelerated the pace of change in society and diverse individuals and groups have begun to promote a variety of old and new instructional approaches, programs, and policies for mathematics education. general, and widespread reform in mathematics education in particular. Researchers are being exhorted to gather and analyze data in support of specific agendas. A pressing challenge for the mathematics education researchers has been to reach out to its constituents and provide research-based advice about questions that concerned that constituent community, and to do so in an unbiased, rational, and convincing manner. several chapters. The Overview will contain chapters on the philosophical, theoretical, and methodological underpinnings of mathematics education research. Section II, on Teachers and Teaching, will contain discussion of research on teacher knowledge, teacher affects and beliefs, teacher education and professional development, and what goes on in classrooms. Section III, on Influences on Student Outcomes, will focus on curriculum, tasks, and materials, teaching practices, race, class, gender and other community and culture influences on student outcomes, and mathematics learning in non-school contexts. thinking in early childhood, whole number operations, place value, and number sense, rational number and proportional reasoning, early and later algebraic thinking, problem solving and modeling, justification and proof, geometry and measurement, probability, statistics, and post-secondary mathematics learning. The chapters in section V, Assessment, will consider classroom assessment, high-stakes assessment, and international and national assessments. The final section, Issues and Perspectives, will offer viewpoints on national and local policy, technology, equity and access, and assessment. This section will close with a view from the outside, prepared by a non-researcher.
