Continuing Discussion Of Mathematical Habits Of Mind, Annie Selden, Kien H. Lim

Kien H Lim

The idea of “mathematical habits of mind” has been introduced to emphasize the need to help students think about mathematics “the way mathematicians do.” There seems to be considerable interest among mathematics educators and mathematicians in helping students develop mathematical habits of mind. The objectives of this working group are: (a) to continue the discussion of various views and aspects of mathematical habits of mind begun at PME-NA 31, (b) to explore avenues for research, (c) to encourage research collaborations, and (d) to interest doctoral students in this topic.

Kalvin Whittles Dr.

One of the recommendations of the doctoral study, Cryptology: A didactical transposition into a grade 10 school mathematics classroom is to place the topic of cryptology in the public domain. The book Codes declassified: The stories aims to do so through stories to introduce readers to some of the codes in cryptology.
