Literacy in mathematics in preservice education

(2016) Literacy in mathematics in preservice education. Professional Doctorate thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

Literacy in mathematics is an important topic in education, and one that is still poorly understood. This thesis is a comprehensive report on the teaching and learning of mathematics through the literacy lens, leading to the development of a model to guide the teaching and learning of literacy in mathematics. The research has practical implications, particularly for mathematics education courses in preservice primary teacher education programs. The study is particularly important due to the unique demands of literacy in mathematics, a key element of the content of mathematics.
