Riassunto

The Teaching and Learning of Geometry provides an initial consideration of these questions and a primer for teachers and young scholars to get involved in addressing them. Geometry has long been a mainstay of the secondary school curriculum internationally, charged with the responsibility of introducing students to the practices of theoretical mathematics. This book provides a pedagogical framework for the teaching and learning of geometry grounded in theory and research. It can support teacher preparation and professional development, and orient classroom research by teachers and development efforts directed to teachers.
