Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No DJ as issued. 286 pages. Teaching and learning mathematics is a political a ct in which children, teachers, parents, and policy makers are ma de visible as subjects. As they learn about mathematics, children are also learning about themselves - who they are, who they migh t become. We can choose to listen or not to what children have to say about learning mathematics. Such choices constitute us in re lations of power. Mathematical know-how is widely regarded as ess ential not only to the life chances of individuals, but also to t he health of communities and the economic well-being of nations. With the globalisation of education in an increasingly market-ori ented world, mathematics has received intensified attention in th e first decade of the twenty-first century with a shifting emphas is on utilitarian aspects of mathematics. This is reflected in th e reconceptualisation of mathematical competence as mathematical literacy, loosely conceived as those ways of thinking, reasoning and working mathematically that allow us to engage effectively in everyday situations, in many occupations, and the cut and thrust of world economies as active, empowered and participatory citize ns. It is no surprise then that mathematics has become one of the most politically charged subjects in primary school curricula wo rldwide. We are experiencing an unprecedented proliferation of re gional and national strategies to establish benchmarks, raise sta ndards, enhance achievement, close gaps, and leave no child behin d in mathematics education. Industries have sprung up around the design, administration and monitoring of standardised assessment to measure and compare children's mathematical achievement agains t identified benchmarks and each other.
