Description and Table of Contents

Description

This timely volume raises issues concerning the nature of school mathematics and mathematics at work, and the challenges of teaching valuable mathematics in school and providing appropriate training for a variety of careers. It offers lively commentaries on important `hot' topics: transferring knowledge and skill across contexts; 'authentic mathematics'; comparability of different types of assessment; and analyses of research methods.
