The First Sourcebook on Nordic Research in Mathematics Education: Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Denmark and contributions from Finland provides the first comprehensive and unified treatment of historical and contemporary research trends in mathematics education in the Nordic world. The book is organized in sections co-ordinated by active researchers in mathematics education in Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Denmark, and Finland. The purpose of this sourcebook is to synthesize and survey the established body of research in these countries with findings that have influenced ongoing research agendas, informed practice, framed curricula and policy. The sections for each country also include historical articles in addition to exemplary examples of recently conducted research oriented towards the future. The book will serve as a standard reference for mathematics education researchers, policy makers, practitioners and students both in and outside the Nordic countries. This Sourcebook includes over 50 chapters from the Nordic world. Section I- Norwegian Research in Mathematics Education Section Editor: Simon Goodchild Introduction to the Norwegian part of the Sourcebook of Nordic Research in Mathematics Education Simon Goodchild The development of mathematics education as a research field in Norway - an insider's personal reflections, Trygve Breiteig and Simon Goodchild Section II- Swedish Research in Mathematics Education Section Editor: Christer Bergsten Mathematics education research in Sweden - An introduction Christer Bergsten Some theoretical orientations of Swedish research Learning difficulties and mathematical reasoning Johan Lithner, Torulf Palm Section III - Icelandic Research in Mathematics Education Section Editors: Guobjorg Palsdottir, Bharath Sriraman Mathematics Education in Iceland: Explaining the Non-homogeneity in a Homogenous System, Guony Helga Gunnarsdottir, Guobjorg Palsdottir, Bharath Sriraman The History of Public Education in Mathematics in Iceland and its Relations to Secondary Education, Kristin Bjarnadottir Section IV - Danish Research in Mathematics Education Section Editors: Bettina Dahl, Bharath Sriraman Section V- Contributions from Finland Section Editor: Lenni Haapasalo

Refractions of Mathematics Education Festschrift for Eva Jablonka (Hardcover): Christer Bergsten, Bharath Sriraman Refractions of Mathematics Education Festschrift for Eva Jablonka (Hardcover)

The diversity of research in mathematics education has been addressed as both, a problem and a strength. When manifested through adherence to different intellectual roots and theoretical orientations, diversions constitute `refractions' of mathematics education. The collection and analysis of empirical data in a study are by necessity refracted through the specific analytical lens employed, as well as the aim of the study itself. Refractions can also refer to looking at old phenomena through new lenses. The chapters in this book are refracted through philosophical, political, mathematical and personal lenses by distinguished authors in the field, addressing issues about the elusive experience of doing mathematics, purification of texts, refractions, mathematics and ethnomathematics, political messages in textbook tasks, mathematics education policy debate, the political in mathematics education research, philosophy and mathematics, meanings and representations, identity of mathematical modeling, and dilemmas in the teaching of calculus. An ancient Sanskrit adage states that Knowledge is something that grows when shared, but shrinks when hoarded. Academics engaged in the generation of new Knowledge are blessed with both the time and the freedom to engage in pursuits that allow for intellectual pleasure. As a phenomenon of the Zeitgeist many have succumbed to the increased corporatization of academic work, engaging in activities for monetary and self advancement purposes. Are there any real intellectuals left in academia, a la Adorno, Bourdieu, Chomsky, Foucault, among others? This Festschrift is dedicated to academics that don't bother with self promotion or aggrandizement of themselves or their ideas in simplistic terms.
