Rhetorical Ways of Thinking focuses on how the co-construction of
learning models the interpretation of a mathematical situation. It
is a comprehensive examination of the role of
sociocultural-historical theory developed by Vygotsky. This book
puts forward the supposition that the major assumptions of
sociocultural-historic theory are essential to understanding the
theory's application to mathematical pedagogy, which explores
issues relevant to learning and teaching mathematics-in-context,
thus providing a valuable practical tool for general mathematics
education research. The most important goal, then, is to exemplify
the merging of the theory with practice and the subsequent
applications to mathematics teaching and learning. This monograph
contains five chapters, including a primer to Vygotsky's
sociocultural historic theory, three comprehensive empirical
studies examining: prospective teachers' perception of mathematics
teaching and learning and the practice of scaffolded instruction to
assist practicing teachers in developing their understanding of
pedagogical content knowledge. Finally, the book concludes with a
contextualization of the theory, linking it to best practices in
the classroom.
