Year: 2015
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: At the ICME 2012 Conference, history of mathematics (HM) in maths education was specifically discussed in several contexts: one of the 37 Topic Study Groups (chaired by W.S. Horng and R. Chorlay); one discussion group on “Uses of History of Mathematics in School (Pupils aged 6–13)” (organised by B. Smestad); one regular lecture on “History, Application, and Philosophy of Mathematics in Mathematics Education: Accessing and Assessing Student’s Overview & Judgment” (by U. Jankvist); and one general presentation of The HPM international study group, among the organizations affiliated with the ICMI. A parallel TSG dealt with the history of mathematics teaching and learning (chaired by K. Bjarnadottir and F. Furinghetti). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
