Recenzii
"An interesting insight into the world of maths anxiety and of the strategies to minimise it!"
Professor Nira Chamberlain OBE, Past President of The Mathematical Association
“The publication of this admirable book is timely. It is an accessible, comprehensive and balanced introduction to the concept of maths anxiety and its impact on learners. It gives a multi-faceted perspective with sound and cautious advice. Its comprehensive collection of references would make it an essential for any researcher into maths anxiety. I found this book to be classroom friendly in that it takes a realistic view of the implications and impact of maths anxiety. Realistic and wise. Well done Heidi and Tom.”
Dr Steve Chinn, Founder/Director of Maths Explained
“Heidi Kirkland and Thomas Hunt in compiling this book have provided a huge service to everyone concerned with maths anxiety, including teachers, parents, researchers, educationists, and indeed those who suffer from it and want to better understand it. They sensitively discuss, with the benefit of their considerable knowledge and experience, the nature and prevalence of the problem, how it relates to other aspects of maths learning and teaching, and importantly what can be done to improve the situation and reduce anxiety levels. They draw on a comprehensive and rigorous survey of existing research, yet the book remains very readable; quotations sprinkled throughout are especially effective in communicating the reality and variety of people's experiences of maths anxiety and how it has affected their lives. How wonderful it would be if everyone involved in teaching and learning maths could read it and act on it!”
Professor Margaret Brown OBE, Emeritus Professor at King’s College London
“This is an accessible, yet thorough exploration of mathematics anxiety that distils the research for busy teachers whilst maintaining criticality. For teachers who are interested in creating inclusive classrooms, promoting positive dispositions towards mathematics and understanding their pupils better in relation to their feelings about this vitally important subject, this is a useful read, with clear practical applications.”
