Zusatztext 'There have been a number of books addressing this audience in recent years, all of which have added a valuable perspective in different ways. I think [this] is one of the best, partly because of the excellent range of authors it includes and partly because it constantly challenges and complexifies - teaching is not simple and cannot be made to be. The more I read this book the more I find in it to stimulate and inspire.' - Jan Winter, Mathematics in School Informationen zum Autor Linda Haggarty Klappentext If learners in the classroom are to be excited about mathematics, teachers need to be both well informed and able to see how this can be translated into rich and stimulating classroom strategies.
