Gabriele Kaiser Book order

The book presents the Invited Lectures given at 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13). ICME-13 took place from 24th- 31st July 2016 at the University of Hamburg in Hamburg (Germany). The congress was hosted by the Society of Didactics of Mathematics (Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Mathematik - GDM) and took place under the auspices of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI). ICME-13 – the biggest ICME so far - brought together about 3500 mathematics educators from 105 countries, additionally 250 teachers from German speaking countries met for specific activities. The scholars came together to share their work on the improvement of mathematics education at all educational levels.. The papers present the work of prominent mathematics educators from all over the globe and give insight into the current discussion in mathematics education. The Invited Lectures cover a wide spectrum of topics, themes and issues and aim to give direction to future research towards educational improvement in the teaching and learning of mathematics education. This book is of particular interest to researchers, teachers and curriculum developers in mathematics education.

The book presents the Proceedings of the 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13) and is based on the presentations given at the 13th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-13). ICME-13 took place from 24th- 31st July 2016 at the University of Hamburg in Hamburg (Germany). The congress was hosted by the Society of Didactics of Mathematics (Gesellschaft für Didaktik der Mathematik - GDM) and took place under the auspices of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction (ICMI). ICME-13 brought together about 3.500 mathematics educators from 105 countries, additionally 250 teachers from German speaking countries met for specific activities. Directly before the congress activities were offered for 450 Early Career Researchers. The proceedings give a comprehensive overview on the current state-of-the-art of the discussions on mathematics education and display the breadth and deepness of current research on mathematical teaching-and-learning processes. The book introduces the major activities of ICME-13, namely articles from the four plenary lecturers and two plenary panels, articles from the five ICMI awardees, reports from six national presentations, three reports from the thematic afternoon devoted to specific features of ICME-13. Furthermore, the proceedings contain descriptions of the 54 Topic Study Groups, which formed the heart of the congress and reports from 29 Discussion Groups and 31 Workshops. The additional important activities of ICME-13, namely papers from the invited lecturers, will be presented in the second volume of the proceedings

Anlässlich des 70. Geburtstages von Werner Blum wollen wir mit dieser Festschrift seine großen Verdienste für die Mathematikdidaktik würdigen und haben dazu aus der Fülle der von ihm bearbeiteten Themen das Gebiet „Modellieren im Mathematikunterricht“ ausgewählt. Der Band würdigt zum einen in einer breiten Palette von Beiträgen von nationalen und internationalen Expertinnen und Experten aus dem Bereich Modellieren Werner Blums beeindruckende Leistungen in diesem Bereich und seine entscheidenden Impulse zu dessen Weiterentwicklung. Zum anderen gibt der Band in 23 Kapiteln einen Überblick über die aktuelle nationale und internationale Diskussion zum Modellieren im Mathematikunterricht und zeigt auf, welche enormen Fortschritte das Themengebiet in den letzten Jahrzehnten gemacht hat und dass neben theoretischen Arbeiten insbesondere empirische Arbeiten zur Weiterentwicklung des Forschungsgebiets beigetragen haben. Aber auch die Verbreitung von Realitätsbezügen und Modellieren in Schulen wird in den Beiträgen deutlich, zu denen Werner Blum einen entscheidenden Beitrag geliefert hat.
