Description

Product Description This book offers a concise introduction to the fundamentals of knot theory, a survey of curricular developments, and a series of teaching experiments demonstrating the Japanese art of lesson studies and giving a lively impression of student learning processes. Review From the reviews:“The book is about knot theory in the Japanese school system. It contains seven chapters which map the different viewpoints on the subject. … the book might be interesting for someone with a detailed interest in the situation of the teaching of knot theory in schools in Japan.” (Stephan Rosebrock, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1257, 2013) From the Back Cover This book is the result of a joint venture between Professor Akio Kawauchi, Osaka City University, well-known for his research in knot theory, and the Osaka study group of mathematics education, founded by Professor Hirokazu Okamori and now chaired by his successor Professor Tomoko Yanagimoto, Osaka Kyoiku University. The seven chapters address the teaching and learning of knot theory from several perspectives. Readers will find an extremely clear and concise introduction to the fundamentals of knot theory, an overview of curricular developments in Japan, and in particular a series of teaching experiments at all levels which not only demonstrate the creativity and the professional expertise of the members of the study group, but also give a lively impression of students’ learning processes. In addition the reports show that elementary knot theory is not just a preparation for advanced knot theory but also an excellent means to develop spatial thinking. The book can be highly recommended for several reasons: First of all, and that is the main intention of the book, it serves as a comprehensive text for teaching and learning knot theory. Moreover it provides a model for cooperation between mathematicians and mathematics educators based on substantial mathematics. And finally it is a thorough introduction to the Japanese art of lesson studies–again in the context of substantial mathematics.
