Mathematics: society and curricula
This book is about mathematics and curricula, and therefore of interest both to mathematicians and to those with a wider interest in the curriculum. It pioneers the bringing together of both practicing mathematics teachers and curriculum developers in discussions about the curriculum in a crucial area which affects every school, college and university.
The book looks at the forces, theoretical, social and practical, which have shaped the curriculum in the past, which are affecting it now and the considerations which should shape the curriculum in the future. The main purpose of the book is to make readers aware of what is being taught, why and what it hopes to achieve.
