Description
Sasha
Wang revisits the van Hiele model of geometric thinking with Sfard's discursive
framework to investigate geometric thinking from a discourse perspective. The
author focuses on describing and analyzing pre-service teachers' geometric
discourse across different van Hiele levels. The explanatory power of Sfard's
framework provides a rich description of how pre-service teachers think in the
context of quadrilaterals. It also contributes to our understanding of human
thinking that is illustrated through the analysis of geometric discourse
accompanied by vignettes.
