Proceedings Of The Twenty-Sixth ICMI Study : Advances In Geometry Education

Résumé :
An ICMI Study Conference is quite different to a traditional conference. A majority of the time is devoted to the engagement of Working Groups organized around the topics and led by IPC members. During these Working Groups brief presentations by the participants, based on their papers, serve as a catalyst for in-depth exploration of the topics and sub-topics —with the primary purpose being the preparation and initial development of a published volume. The activity of the Study is organized around four focused topics, aimed to provide complementary perspectives and approaches to the teaching and learning of geometry. Contributions to the topics were organized around sets of related sub-topics, each sub-topic focusing on a specific issue and stating a set of questions aimed to lead discussions, as defined in the Discussion Document. The four topics are: A. Theoretical perspectives; B. Curricular and methodological approaches; C. Resources for teaching and learning geometry; and D. Multidisciplinary perspectives. These topics and related sub-topics provided the basis for inviting papers. Each submission was reviewed by at least two IPC members, and authors of accepted papers were invited to participate in the Study Conference. Accepted papers were then revised (when necessary) by the authors, before being published in these electronic conference proceedings. The conference proceedings include 60 papers from around the world. The countries represented in the Proceedings include: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Malawi, Mexico, New Zealand, Portugal, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and the United States.
