Mathematics and science education are changing all the time. New insights into how people of all ages know, learn, and develop, and technological and societal developments influence new models of teaching and curriculum design, and new approaches to research in science and mathematics education. The recent literature in both fields includes contributions focusing on issues and using theoretical frames that were unknown a decade ago.
The purpose of this series is to encourage the publication of books at the cutting edge of both fields. The series aims at becoming a leader in providing refreshing new work, and to stimulate discussion and fruitful exchange between the various research communities that engage in mathematics and science education research. While discipline-based mathematics and science education research – concerning the teaching and learning of specific mathematical and scientific topics – is at the core of the series, the series will explore inputs from other fields such as cognitive and educational psychology, educational technology, semiotics, linguistics, and many more. The series also aims to bridge the mathematics and science education communities, exploring the interplay between science and mathematics education far beyond a traditional view of mathematics as a tool for solving science problems and science as a context for mathematical problems.
The series is intended not only to foster books concerned with knowing, learning, and teaching in school, but also with doing and learning mathematics and science across the whole lifespan (e.g., science in kindergarten; mathematics at work).
