In the first BACOMET volume different perspectives on issues
concerning teacher education in mathematics were presented (B.
Christiansen, A. G. Howson and M. Otte, Perspectives on Mathematics
Education, Reidel, Dordrecht, 1986). Underlying all of them was the
fundamental problem area of the relationships between mathematical
knowledge and the teaching and learning processes. The subsequent
project BACOMET 2, whose outcomes are presented in this book,
continued this work, especially by focusing on the genesis of
mathematical knowledge in the classroom. The book developed over
the period 1985-9 through several meetings, much discussion and
considerable writing and redrafting. Our major concern was to try
to analyse what we considered to be the most significant aspects of
the relationships in order to enable mathematics educators to be
better able to handle the kinds of complex issues facing all
mathematics educators as we approach the end of the twentieth
century. With access to mathematics education widening all the
time, with a multi tude of new materials and resources being
available each year, with complex cultural and social interactions
creating a fluctuating context of education, with all manner of
technology becoming more and more significant, and with both
informal education (through media of different kinds) and non
formal education (courses of training etc. ) growing apace, the
nature of formal mathematical education is increasingly needing
analysis."
