Multi-World Paradigm in Mathematical Learning (1) : An Analysis of Mathematics Classes

摘要: The recent researches of mathematical education are under significant influence three thoughts including radical constructivism, interactionism, and socioculturism. While they mutually conflicting theoretically, it should be unavoidable to integrate coordinate the in order explain realities learning. Nakahara (1997a) calls this view "multi-world paradigm" We illustrate two analyses learning based on multi-world paradigm consider theoretically. Multi-world suggests very important direction for research teaching mathematics forward because educational phenomena often complex can't reduced a single theory.
