Co-existence of History of Mathematics and Education of Mathematics

History of Mathematics in Mathematics Education : a Saussurean Perspective

It is not only because of a certain eclecticism in mathematics education research that semiotic ideas have begun to take root there: it is also because of the dawning recognition that key areas of interest in mathematics education genuinely have a semiotic nature. For this, one need only point to research focused on meaning, communication, language, and culture (e.g., Presmeg, 1997; Ernest,1997...

existence and approximate $l^{p}$ and continuous solution of nonlinear integral equations of the hammerstein and volterra types

بسیاری از پدیده ها در جهان ما اساساً غیرخطی هستند، و توسط معادلات غیرخطی ‎‏بیان شد‎‎‏ه اند. از آنجا که ظهور کامپیوترهای رقمی با عملکرد بالا، حل مسایل خطی را آسان تر می کند. با این حال، به طور کلی به دست آوردن جوابهای دقیق از مسایل غیرخطی دشوار است. روش عددی، به طور کلی محاسبه پیچیده مسایل غیرخطی را اداره می کند. با این حال، دادن نقاط به یک منحنی و به دست آوردن منحنی کامل که اغلب پرهزینه و ...

What ain’t mathematics education?!

Abstract: In 1996 at the first Iranian Mathematics Education Conference (IMEC1) that was held in Isfahan. I obliged myself as a mathematics educator, to inform the mathematics community at large by presenting a paper entitled “what is mathematics education?” to pave the way for the establishment of the master program of mathematics education in Iran. Now, after 16 years, we need to reflect on t...

The trace of realistic mathematics education in the school mathematics in Iran

Abstract: In the late 70's, in reaction to both "New Math" movement in the United States and "mechanistic mathematics education" approach to mathematics education in Netherland, Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) has been introduced by Freudenthal and his colleagues. In this educational approach, Freudenthal considered mathematics as a human activity. Based on this approach, education should...
