This book brings together leading researchers in mathematics education to share personal narratives of key mathematical moments or ideas that inspired, surprised, or helped direct their research. While the fruits of research activities and products are shared at scholarly conference and journals, the footprints of mathematics that ignited the research processes is often behind the scenes and only acknowledged informally. To make mathematics - an essential component and a determining driving force of mathematics education research - more visible, chapters in this book highlight the indispensable and indisputable role of mathematics in mathematics education research.
The book is unique and timely in addressing the essential, but increasingly side-lined, role of mathematics that permeates mathematics education research journals, graduate programs, and the personae of the next generation in the profession. It renounces the shift away from mathematics and attempts to restore the place and value of mathematics by presenting elegant, intriguing, and substantial contributions to mathematics education that have come from keeping mathematics at the core of research pursuits. Each chapter shares a journey in mathematics education research that was inspired by an affinity for mathematics, and that helped shaped the field as we know it. Each author shares insights and reflections on the status of mathematics in the mathematics education community, how it has changed, and what further changes might be expected.
This edited volume is of major interest to the mathematics education community, including mathematics educators, teacher educators, researchers, professional development providers, and graduate students.
Xiaoheng (Kitty) Yan is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Toronto, Canada. Her research experience and expertise are in proof and proving at the secondary and university levels, mathematical content knowledge of prospective teachers, and the use and integration of digital technology in mathematics learning.
Ami Mamolo is Associate Professor at Ontario Tech University, and co-Director of the Centre of Mathematics Education at the Fields Institute, Canada. Her research explores how to foster and elicit reasoning that can disrupt misguided and ingrained preconceptions about mathematics content, learning, and teaching.
Igor' Kontorovich is an Associate Professor at the University of Hong Kong, China. His research concerns mathematics teaching and learning at the university level, including secondary-tertiary transition, undergraduate and graduate studies. Accordingly, mathematics - the main focus of the proposed book - lies at the heart of our educational scholarship.

Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
