Mathematics Education in Different Cultural Traditions- A Comparative Study of East Asia and the West - The 13th ICMI Study (Hardcover, 2006 ed.)

The fundamental idea of the ICMI Study 13 is outlined as follows: Education in any social environment is influenced in many ways by thetraditions of these environments. As a consequence, the results of sucheducation will naturally differ with different traditions in differentenvironments. Indeed, this is necessary since one of the intentions ofeducation is to support the traditional continuity of structure andfunction of a special environment. On the other hand, today we areobserving a growing interdependence between environments likeregions, states, countries, and different cultural areas of the world
