The Pedagogy of Realistic Mathematics Education (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781647253998)

Realistic mathematics education (RME) is an innovative learning approach that emphasizes mathematics as a human activity that must be associated with real life using real world contexts as the starting point of learning. The primary objective of RME is to transform the learning of mathematics into an enjoyable and meaningful experience for learners. It begins with an introduction to problems from contexts that are relevant to student experiences and knowledge. An RME classroom involves active mathematizing and has four fundamental features. These features include extended discussion of multiple contexts; development of students' representations of contexts; focus on multiple strategies for solving problems; and sharing, explaining and discussing strategies. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide an in-depth knowledge about the pedagogy of realistic mathematics education. It will serve as a valuable source of reference for students and teachers of mathematics.
