This book is an exploration of tools and mathematics and issues in
mathematics education related to tool use. The book has five parts.
The first part reflects on doing a mathematical task with different
tools, followed by a mathematician's account of tool use in his
work. The second considers prehistory and history: tools in the
development from ape to human; tools and mathematics in the ancient
world; tools for calculating; and tools in mathematics instruction.
The third part opens with a broad review of technology and
intellectual trends, circa 1970, and continues with three case
studies of approaches in mathematics education and the place of
tools in these approaches. The fourth part considers issues related
to mathematics instructions: curriculum, assessment and policy; the
calculator debate; mathematics in the real world; and teachers' use
of technology. The final part looks to the future: task and tool
design and new forms of activity via connectivity and computer
games.
