Recenzje

"The book is equally ideal for those who are new to mathematics education research and the current teacher educators. It was interesting to see how the topics are globally connected, with similar emphasis on STEM agenda, problem-solving, critical thinking, collaborative dialogues in the United States education system. Therefore, this book will be an asset to the global audience." (Sandra Richy John, MAA Reviews, June 20, 2022)

The tenth edition of the four-yearly review of mathematics education research in Australasia, compiled by the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA), critically reviews research in mathematics education in the four years from 2016 to 2019. Its goals are to provide a reference guide for researchers, and to promote further quality research in Australasia.
