Summing Up: Teaching and Learning Mathematics in a Multilingual World -- $tReferences -- $tIndex 330 $aMathematics classrooms are increasingly multilingual, whether they are found in linguistically diverse societies, urban melting pots or planned bilingual programs. The chapters in this book present and discuss examples of mathematics classroom life from a range of multilingual classroom settings, and use these examples to draw out and discuss key issues for the teaching and learning of mathematics and language. These issues relate to pedagogy, students? learning, curriculum, assessment, policy and aspects of educational theory. The contributions are based on research conducted in mathematics classrooms in Europe, South Asia, North America and Australia. Recurring issues for the learning of mathematics include the relationship between language and mathematics, the relationship between formal and informal mathematical language, and the relationship between students? home languages and the official language of schooling. 410 0$aBilingual education and bilingualism. 606 $aMathematics$xStudy and teaching 606 $aEducation, Bilingual 606 $aMultilingualism 606 $aLanguage and education 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMathematics$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aEducation, Bilingual. 615 0$aMultilingualism. 615 0$aLanguage and education. 676 $a372.7/044 701 $aBarwell$b Richard$f1969-$01054444 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456541403321 996 $aMultilingualism in mathematics classrooms$92487031 997 $aUNINA
