Dooley, Thérèse; Grimes, Paul – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2023
In this article, we analyse a script of an imagined classroom interaction from the perspectives of politeness and positioning. The script was written by a prospective teacher, Cara, as part of her Lesson Play. The Lesson Play was prompted by her reflection on how the needs of students who are disaffected with mathematics might be met, an issue…

Sinclair, Nathalie; Ferrara, Francesca – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2021
In this article, we explore Whitehead's claim that experience is fundamentally affective. We do so in the context of an Italian primary school classroom featuring the use of the multitouch application "TouchCounts." We study the way in which the children and the iPad take each other up and the meanings of number and arithmetic that…

Armstrong, Alayne – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2017
This article presents a case study of a small group of Grade 8 students performing bricolage during a classroom mathematics task. The data analysis involves the use of 'tapestries', a style of transcript that enables the consideration of both the group and individuals within the group as learning agents. I characterize bricolage as an emergent,…

Roth, Wolff-Michael – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2016
It has become a truism to state that mathematical knowledge or "meaning" and the norms and practices of (school) mathematical communities are negotiated and socially constructed before individuals construct (internalize) them for themselves. In this study I suggest that the social in existing conceptualizations is based on a trivial…

Brizuela, Barbara; Schliemann, Analucia – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2004
In this article, the authors seek to re-conceptualize the perspective regarding students' difficulties with algebra. While acknowledging that students "do" have difficulties when learning algebra, they also argue that the generally espoused criteria for algebra as the ability to work with the syntactical rules for solving equations is…
