This anthology reviews the history, current states, and plans for
the development of mathematics education in the Muslim States in
Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. There is an introduction by
Ahmed Djebbar, the most prominent contemporary scholar of Muslim
mathematics. The chapters are written by respective national
experts in mathematics education.
This book provides the global mathematics education community with
information on the recent and current status of the teaching of
mathematics in a group of island nations in the Asia-Pacific
region. Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, Australia,
Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, and twelve nations in the South
Pacific Ocean.It is the third volume in a series conceived by Dr
Bruce Vogeli of Columbia University Teachers College and published
by WSP, aimed at producing contemporary accounts of mathematics
teaching in a world-wide group of nations. Previous volumes have
covered Central and South American nations and a selection of
Muslim nations respectively.
This anthology presents a comprehensive review of mathematics and
its teaching in the following nations in South America, Central
America, and the Caribbean: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile,
Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico,
Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Trinidad and Tobago, and
Venezuela. The last summary of mathematics education encompassing
countries from the Southern Americas appeared in 1966. Progress in
the field during five decades has remained unexamined until now.
This anthology, consisting of two volumes, is intended to equip
background researchers, practitioners and students of international
mathematics education with intimate knowledge of mathematics
education in Russia. Volume I, entitled Russian Mathematics
Education: History and World Significance, consists of several
chapters written by distinguished authorities from Russia, the
United States and other nations. It examines the history of
mathematics education in Russia and its relevance to mathematics
education throughout the world. The second volume, entitled Russian
Mathematics Education: Programs and Practices will examine specific
Russian programs in mathematics, their impact and methodological
innovations. Although Russian mathematics education is highly
respected for its achievements and was once very influential
internationally, it has never been explored in depth. This
publication does just that.
