Ethnomathematics and its Diverse Approaches for Mathematics Education
Author: Milton Rosa
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319592203
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
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.

Ethnomathematics
Author: Ubiratan D'Ambrosio
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9460911412
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 101
Book Description
In this book, Ubiratan D’Ambrosio presents his most recent thoughts on ethnomathematics—a sub-field of mathematics history and mathematics education for which he is widely recognized to be one of the founding fathers. In a clear, concise format, he outlines the aim of the Program Ethnomathematics, which is to understand mathematical knowing/doing throughout history, within the context of different groups, communities, peoples and nations, focusing on the cycle of mathematical knowledge: its generation, its intellectual and social organization, and its diffusion. While not rejecting the importance of modern academic mathematics, it is viewed as but one among many existing ethnomathematics. Offering concrete examples and ideas for mathematics teachers and researchers, D’Ambrosio makes an eloquent appeal for an entirely new approach to conceptualizing mathematics knowledge and education that embraces diversity and addresses the urgent need to provide youth with the necessary tools to become ethical, creative, critical individuals prepared to participate in the emerging planetary society.

International Handbook of Mathematics Education

ISBN: 9400914652
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 1336
Book Description
ALAN J. BISHOP Monash University, Clayton, Victoria, Australia RATIONALE Mathematics Education is becoming a well-documented field with many books, journals and international conferences focusing on a variety of aspects relating to theory, research and practice. That documentation also reflects the fact that the field has expanded enormously in the last twenty years. At the 8th International Congress on Mathematics Education (ICME) in Seville, Spain, for example, there were 26 specialist Working Groups and 26 special ist Topic Groups, as well as a host of other group activities. In 1950 the 'Commission Internationale pour I 'Etude et l' Amelioration de l'Enseignement des Mathematiques' (CIEAEM) was formed and twenty years ago another active group, the 'International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education' (PME), began at the third ICME at Karlsruhe in 1976. Since then several other specialist groups have been formed, and are also active through regular conferences and publications, as documented in Edward Jacobsen's Chapter 34 in this volume.

Curriculum and Practice for Children’s Contextualized Learning
Author: Li Jilin
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 366255769X
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
Based on the authors’ over 30 years of practical research experience, this book shows how situation curriculum design illustrates the new idea of “combining subject curricula with children’s activities.” Particular attention is given to the subject curriculum, activity curriculum and the optimization of the situation. The curriculum is the most important vehicle of children’s learning, and the primary school curriculum is vital to children’s growth. Drawing on detailed case studies, the book highlights how situation curriculum design is currently affecting traditional Chinese primary schools.
