Language and Communication in Mathematics Education

Issue 46/6, ZDM - The International Journal on Mathematics Education

Editors: Morgan C, Craig T., Schuette M., Wagner D.

Within the field of mathematics education, the central role language plays in the learning, teaching, and doing of mathematics is increasingly recognised, but there is not agreement about what this role (or these roles) might be or even about what the term ‘language’ itself encompasses. In this issue of ZDM, we have compiled a collection of scholarship on language in mathematics education research, representing a range of approaches to the topic.

EMF 2015 GT8: Aspects culturels et langagiers dans l'enseignement des mathématiques

10-14 Octobre 2015, Tipaza, Algérie

Dans ce groupe de travail, on s'interesse aux aspects culturels et langagiers de l'enseignement des mathématiques. Contrairement à une idée commune largement répandue selon laquelle les mathématiques seraient universelles et intemporelles, de nombreux travaux de recherche en didactique des mathématiques ont mis en évidence la nécessité de prendre en compte les aspects culturels et langagiers dans l'enseignement des mathématiques, et la nécessité de se déprendre de l'illusion d'une transparence du discours mathématique.

Seminario di Ricerca in Didattica della Matematica: Congetturare e argomentare in ambienti di geometria dinamica A. Baccaglini-Frank, S. Antonini

22-24 gennaio, 2015 – Rimini (Italy)

Il tema centrale del seminario riguarda la formulazione di congetture e la produzione di argomentazioni in geometria e in particolare in ambienti di geometria dinamica. Verrà presentato un modello per l'analisi dei processi, costruito a partire dalla letteratura, e sulla base di una specifica sperimentazione, che mette in relazione tre componenti chiave: il trascinamento, la percezione degli invarianti, l'abduzione.

9-12 June 2015, Rennes, France

Tools for Teaching Logic seeks for original papers with a clear significance in the following topics (but are not limited to): teaching logic in sciences and humanities; teaching logic at different levels of instruction (secondary education, university level, and postgraduate); didactic software; facing some difficulties concerning what to teach; international postgraduate programs; resources and challenges for eLearning Logic; teaching Argumentation Theory, Critical Thinking and Informal Logic; teaching specific topics, such as Modal Logic, Algebraic Logic, Knowledge Representation, Model Theory, Philosophy of Logic, and others; dissemination of logic courseware and logic textbooks; teaching Logic Thinking.

Paper submission: 30th January 2015
