Canadian Mathematics Education Study Group = Groupe Canadien d'Etude en Didactique des Mathematiques. Proceedings of the Annual Meeting (Kingston, Ontario, Canada, May 29-June 2, 1987).
Mendoza, Lionel P., Ed.; Williams, Edgar R., Ed.
These conference proceedings include three invited lectures, a panel discussion, three working group reports, two reports from topic groups and a participant list. The invited lectures include a discussion of the impact of calculators on the calculus curriculum (Herbert S. Wilf); a consideration of the role of misconceptions in learning mathematics (Pearla Nesher); and an address on the limits of rationality (David Wheeler). The working group areas were concerned with methods courses for secondary teacher education, the problem of formal reasoning in undergraduate mathematics, and small group work in the classroom. The topic groups addressed working in a remedial college situation and motivation theory in pre-service teacher education. (PK)
