Learning to Teach Mathematics in the Secondary School

Does being able to "do" mathematics mean being competent at techniques and understanding how ideas and techniques fit together? By being given appropriate tasks, learners develop their powers to think mathematically and learn to appreciate how ideas fit together. (Education/Teaching)

Designing and Using Mathematical Tasks

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.
