Barbara Jaworski addresses a number of questions that are central to research on reform in mathematics education today. In this volume she attempts to chart critically yet honestly her own developing ideas as she undertakes a several-year-long enquiry into mathematics teaching and gives a very personal account of her developing conceptions, conjectures, thoughts and reflections. The author accounts for her research both genetically and biographically, simultaneously restructuring the development of her ideas and giving a rigorous, critical and reflective account.

The late-1990s sees a substantial exchange and communication between countries as researchers attempt to find out why so many children fail at a subject deemed crucial for economic survival. This text charts current thinking and trends in maths teacher education around the world, and looks critically at the inservice education of maths teachers. Divided into two parts, the first has contributors present the processes, practices and issues in teacher education projects in ten countries: Israel; Portugal; South Africa; US; Lebanon; Austria; New Zealand; UK; Australia and Canada. The second part...
