This alternative textbook for courses on teaching mathematics asks teachers and prospective teachers to reflect on their relationships with mathematics and how these relationships influence their teaching and the experiences of their students. Applicable to all levels of schooling, the book covers basic topics such as planning and assessment, classroom management, and organization of classroom experiences; it also introduces some novel approaches to teaching mathematics, such as psychoanalytic perspectives and postmodern conceptions of curriculum. Traditional methodsofteaching issues are recast in a new discourse, provoking new ideas for making mathematics education meaningful to teachers as well as their students. Coauthored by a professor and coordinator of mathematics education programs, with illustrative contributions from practicing elementary, middle, and high school mathematics teachers, this book is a unique collaboration across all precollege grades, making it ideal for teacher discussion groups at any level.Embracing Mathematics:integrates pedagogy and content exploration in ways that are unique in mathematics educationfeatures textboxes with reflection questions and suggested explorations that can be easily utilized as homework for a course or as discussion opportunities for teacher reading groupsoffers examples of teachers action research projects that grew out of their interactions with the main chapters in the bookis not narrowly limited to mathematics education but incorporates curriculum studies an invaluable asset that allows instructors to find more ways to engage students in selfreflexive acts of teachingEmbracing Mathematics is intended as a method text for undergraduate and masterslevel mathematics education courses and more specialized graduate courses on mathematics education, and as a resource for teacher discussion groups.
