Seven papers by mathematicians and educators reflect current research concerning the understanding, teaching, and learning of mathematics at the post-secondary level. Focusing on the ways students think about and learn mathematics, rather than on scholarly minutiae, the volume includes studies on th
This fifth volume of Research In Collegiate Mathematics Education (RCME) presents state-of-the-art research on understanding, teaching, and learning mathematics at the post-secondary level. The articles in RCME are peer-reviewed for two major features: (1
First-year undergraduates' difficulties in working with different uses of variable; Cooperative learning in calculus reform: What have we learned?; Calculus reform and traditional students' use of calculus in an engineering mechanics course; Primary intuitions and instruction: The case of actual infinity; Student performance and attitudes in courses based on APOS theory and the ACE teaching cycle; Models and theories of mathematical understanding: Comparing Pirie and Kieren's model of the growth of mathematical understanding and APOS theory; The nature of learning in interactive technological environments: A proposal for a research agenda based on grounded theory
