520 This book offers an overview of the research into the
reasons behind South Arica's poor performance in
mathematics and offers an overview of that research,
reasserting some of the findings of previous studies, such
as the fact that today's mathematics teaching and
performance reflects the impact of its colonial and
apartheid past. Key issues to emerge are the importance
teaching math in a way that links to learners' concrete
social environment and the necessity for joint efforts on
the part of government, teachers' unions and private
partners. In addition, the book argues for the importance
of teachers developing a deeper understanding of math and
of creating learners with productive math identities
capable of making sense of the subject in South Africa's
11 diverse official languages.
