Innovation and Technology Enhancing Mathematics Education [electronic resource] : Perspectives in the Digital Era /
Faggiano, Eleonora.editor.
Ferrara, Francesca.editor.
Montone, Antonella.editor.
This book addresses key issues of Technology and Innovation(s) in Mathematics Education, drawing on heterogeneous ways of positioning about innovation in mathematical practice with technology. The book offers ideas and meanings of innovation as they emerge from the entanglement of the various researchers with the mathematical practice, the teacher training program, the student learning and engagement, or the research method that they are telling stories about. The multiple theoretical or empirical perspectives capture a rich landscape, in which the presence of digital technology entails the emergence of new practices, techniques, environments and devices, or new ways of making sense of technology in research, teaching and learning.
Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.
