| Sumario: | This book presents the state-of-the-art research on the teaching and learning of linear algebra in the first year of university, in an international perspective. It aims at giving to university teachers in charge of linear algebra courses a wide range of information from works including theoretical and experimental issues. These works try to better understand the meaning of linear algebra in an epistemological approach, as well as the constraints and the difficulties in its teaching and learning. They also present teaching designs with the analysis of their experimentation. However, it would be vain to expect a miraculous way for teaching linear algebra, rather elements of reflection are given to the reader with keys for his or her own experimentation. Through the variety of the works presented, this book also discusses theoretical issues which are consistent for all research in maths education at tertiary level. |

| Notas: | "A first version of this book was published, in French, under the title, L'Enseignement de l'Algèbre Linéaire en Question, by La Pensée Sauvage Édition (Grenoble) in 1997. It was the result of a collaboration between French, Brazilian, Moroccan and North American research teams for which the issue of linear algebra teaching was a central research interest. The present English edition is not just a mere translation of the original. Most chapters have been revised according to new results, the report of a new research work has been integrated into the last chapter and Sierpinska's contribution has been totally renewed. Moreover, the introduction and the conclusion have been renewed and adapted to a more international audience."--Page [xii] |
