Their capacity for mathematics is invisible to them and confirms their ‘non-maths person’ self-perception, which has negative consequences for their life choices. In Adults, Mathematics and Work , the authors tackle and explain a number of paradoxes related to the curious relationship between adults and mathematics. It operationalises the benefits of workplace doctoral research by providing a set of the tools to review this mistaken self-perception in order to make workers’ abilities available for development. It also provides a systematic way of uncovering and recognising informal and non-formal learning to support employability and re-employability in an increasingly fluid work-landscape.MathematicsSocial aspectsMathematicsPsychological aspectsMathematicsSocial aspects.MathematicsPsychological aspects.510.19Keogh John J.aut1644538Maguire TheresaautO'Donoghue John1946-autNL-LeKBNL-LeKBNO-TrBIBBOOK9910820809103321Adults, mathematics, and work3990488UNINA
