This book presents research on the teaching and learning of
mathematics in multilingual settings from across multiple countries
in Africa, including Kenya, Namibia, Nigeria, Malawi, Morocco,
Rwanda, South Africa, Tanzania and Zimbabwe. One of the
distinguishing factors of the African continent lies in the fact
that it has one of the highest linguistic diversities in the world,
so multilingual classrooms are a norm rather than an exception. But
beyond the issue of multilingualism in African classrooms is the
fact that the language of instruction is rarely the first or home
language for a majority of students who learn mathematics. The
chapters explore language policies and their implementation in
mathematics education; curriculum development and pedagogy issues;
support and development of mathematical practices for teachers;
language issues in teaching with mathematics register in indigenous
languages and directions for future research.
