O knihe

A Volume in International Perspectives on Mathematics Education
- Cognition, Equity & Society
Series Editor Bharath Sriraman, The University of Montana and Lyn English, Queensland
University of Technology
This volume represents a serious attempt to understand what it is that structures the pedagogical
experience. In that attempt there are two main objectives. One is a theoretical
interest that involves examining the issue of the subjectivity of the teacher and exploring
how intersubjective negotiations shape the production of classroom practice. A second
objective is to apply these understandings to the production of mathematical knowledge
and to the construction of identities in actual mathematics classrooms. To that end the
book will contain substantial essays that draw on postmodern philosophies of the social
to explore theory's relationship with the practice of mathematics pedagogy.
Unpacking Pedagogy takes new ideas seriously and engages readers in theory development. Groundbreaking in content, the
book investigates how our thinking about classroom practice in general, and mathematics teaching (and learning), in particular,
might be transformed. As a key resource for interrogating and understanding classroom life, the book's sophisticated
analyses allow readers to build new knowledge about mathematics pedagogy. In turn, that new knowledge will provide
them with the tools to engage more actively in educational criticism and to play a role in educational change.
