Fellus, Olga; Low, David E.; Guzman, Lynette D.; Kasman, Alex; Mason, Ralph – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2022
We use a multi-dimensional identity theory to examine how children's picturebooks present discourses about what mathematics is and what doing mathematics means. In our critical content analysis of twenty-four picturebooks, we found four recurring hidden messages that frame mathematical ability as preternatural; as having a magic eye; as doing…
