Interfaces between Mathematical Practices and Mathematical Education de Gert Schubring

Interfaces between Mathematical Practices and Mathematical Education: International Studies in the History of Mathematics and its Teaching

Editat de Gert Schubring
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 feb 2019
This contributed volume investigates the active role of the different contexts of mathematics teaching on the evolution of the practices of mathematical concepts, with particular focus on their foundations. The book aims to deconstruct the strong and generally wide-held conviction that research in mathematics constitutes the only driving force for any progress in the development of mathematics as a field. In compelling and convincing contrast, these chapters aim to show the productive function of teaching, showcasing investigations from countries and regions throughout various eras, from Old Babylonia through the 20th Century. In so doing, they provide a critical reflection on the foundations of mathematics, as well as instigate new research questions, and  explore the interfaces between teaching and research.

Notă biografică

Gert Schubring is a retired member of the Institut für Didaktik der Mathematik, a research institute at Bielefeld University, and at present is visiting professor at the Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). His research interests focus on the history of mathematics and the sciences in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and their systemic interrelation with social-cultural systems. One of his specializations is history of mathematics education. He has published several books, among which is Conflicts between Generalization, Rigor and Intuition: Number Concepts Underlying the Development of Analysis in 17th–19th Century France and Germany (New York, 2005).

Caracteristici

Uniquely investigates the teaching of mathematics in different contexts in the evolution of mathematics practice. Argues that the teaching of mathematics has historically been the driving force behind development in the field. Considers a wide range of examples spanning countries, regions, and time periods—from Old Babylonia through the 20th century. Shows that mathematics teaching instigates reflections about the foundations of mathematics and productive interaction with mathematics research.
