Description
This book explores the nature of mathematics and what it means to be competent in mathematical skills. It challenges traditional views by defining learning as transformation in the way learners perceive or think.
Through this definition, the authors examine how learners develop their powers to think mathematically, increase their choice of actions, and understand how ideas fit together. The book provides a framework for understanding the complexities of mathematical skills and their development.
