Incidents of Intrusion: Disruptions of Mathematics Teaching and Learning by the Traditional Western Worldview
Russell, Gale L.; Chernoff, Egan J.
North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (35th, Chicago, IL, Nov 14-17, 2013)
This paper reports on a theme, the intrusion of the Traditional Western worldview, emerging from an ongoing study of the impact of teachers' engagement in the Transreform approach to the teaching and learning of mathematics on students' affective and cognitive responses to and achievement in mathematics. Newly theorized (Russell & Chernoff, 2011, 2012), the Transreform approach occurs when the teaching and learning of mathematics is grounded within an Indigenous worldview. This paper identifies and analyzes incidents captured within the study's data that demonstrate ways in which the Traditional Western worldview can intrude on an Indigenous worldview and upon the teaching and learning of mathematics.
