Word problems, or story problems, have been a part of mathematical
education for the past 4,000 years. This book considers
mathematical word problems as a genre, drawing on analytic theory
from linguistics, literary criticism, and mathematics education.
Raising the question, « what are word problems?, this book
addresses it by « taking a walk around the genre to see it from
many points of view, including the linguistic, the historical, and
the pedagogical. "A Man Left Albuquerque Heading East sheds light
on the nature of genre in education and inspires teachers to use
word problems in new ways, with different intentions.
