IMPACT (Interweaving Mathematics Pedagogy and Content for Teaching) is an exciting new series of texts for teacher education which aims to advance the learning and teaching of mathematics by integrating mathematics content with the broader research and theoretical base of mathematics education.

The Learning and Teaching of Algebra provides a pedagogical framework for the teaching and learning of algebra grounded in theory and research.

Areas covered include:

¿ Algebra: Setting the Scene

¿ Some Lessons From History

¿ Seeing Algebra Through the Eyes of a Learner

¿ Emphases in Algebra Teaching

¿ Algebra Education in the Digital Era

This guide will be essential reading for trainee and qualified teachers of mathematics, graduate students, curriculum developers, researchers and all those who are interested in the "problématique" of teaching and learning algebra. It allows you to get involved in the wealth of knowledge that teachers can draw upon to assist learners, helping you gain the insights that mastering algebra provides.

Über den Autor

Abraham Arcavi holds the Lester B. Pearson Professorial Chair at the Weizmann Institute of Science, Israel. He has written about the teaching and learning of algebra for researchers and teachers, led large curriculum development projects, and has been involved in teacher professional development for more than 30 years.

Paul Drijvers is Professor of Mathematics Education at the Freudenthal Institute, Utrecht University, The Netherlands. His research interests include the role of ICT in mathematics education, the teaching and learning of algebra, and teachers' professional development.

Kaye Stacey is Professor Emeritus at the University of Melbourne, Australia, having held the Foundation Chair of Mathematics Education there for 20 years. She has made major contributions to understanding students' early learning of formal algebra and discovering how information technology can enhance the teaching of algebra and functions throughout secondary school.
