Description for The Construction of New Mathematical Knowledge in Classroom Interaction. An Epistemological Perspective.
Hardback. Deals with the specific characteristics of mathematical communication in the classroom. This book offers a presentation and an application of the fundamental research method in mathematics education that establishes a reciprocal relationship between everyday classroom communication and epistemological conditions of mathematical knowledge. Series: Mathematics Education Library. Num Pages: 250 pages, biography. BIC Classification: JN; PB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 15. Weight in Grams: 543.
Mathematics is generally considered as the only science where knowledge is uni form, universal, and free from contradictions. „Mathematics is a social product - a 'net of norms', as Wittgenstein writes. In contrast to other institutions - traffic rules, legal systems or table manners -, which are often internally contradictory and are hardly ever unrestrictedly accepted, mathematics is distinguished by coherence and consensus. Although mathematics is presumably the discipline, which is the most differentiated internally, the corpus of mathematical knowledge constitutes a coher ent whole. The consistency of mathematics cannot be proved, yet, so far, no contra dictions were found ... Read more
