The mathematics curriculum - what mathematics is taught, to whom it
is taught, and when it is taught - is the bedrock to understanding
what mathematics students can, could, and should learn. Today's
digital technology influences the mathematics curriculum in two
quite different ways. One influence is on the delivery of
mathematics through hardware such as desktops, laptops, and
tablets. Another influence is on the doing of mathematics using
software available on this hardware, but also available on the
internet, calculators, or smart phones. These developments, rapidly
increasing in their availability and decreasing in their cost,
raise fundamental questions regarding a mathematics curriculum that
has traditionally been focused on paper-and-pencil work and taught
in many places as a set of rules to be practiced and learned. This
volume presents the talks given at a conference held in 2014 at the
University of Chicago, sponsored by the Center for the Study of
Mathematics Curriculum. The speakers - experts from around the
world and inside the USA - were asked to discuss one or more of the
following topics: changes in the nature and creation of curricular
materials available to students transformations in how students
learn and how they demonstrate their learning rethinking the role
of the teacher and how students and teachers interact within a
classroom and across distances from each other The result is a set
of articles that are interesting and captivating, and challenge us
to examine how the learning of mathematics can and should be
affected by today's technology.
