APOS Theory
Description
Reviews / Votes
"This book is clearly intended to persuade researchers to consider adopting an APOS-based approach. . the authors describe APOS theory as a Kuhnian paradigm, and set out to explain the paradigmatic questions, assumptions, and methods that within-paradigm researchers adopt. . In sum, for a reader interested in understanding APOS theory, this is an excellent book. It lays out APOS's theoretical assumptions and standard research methods with clarity and precision, and it gives helpful examples of research conducted within the programme." (Matthew Inglis, International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, Vol. 1, 2015)
