Mills, Terence; Sacrez, Aimé – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
Thomas Kuhn (1962/2012) introduced the term "paradigm shift" to the scientific literature to describe how knowledge in science develops. The aims of this article are to identify paradigm shifts, or revolutions, that have occurred in mathematics, and to discuss their relevance to teaching mathematics in schools. The authors argue that…

To increase opportunities for students to take more advanced math courses in high school, many school districts enroll grade 8 students in Algebra I, a gateway course for advanced math. But students who take Algebra I in grade 8 and skip other math courses, such as grade 8 general math, might miss opportunities to develop the foundational…

Leviatan, T. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, 2006
Real numbers are often a missing link in mathematical education. The standard working assumption in calculus courses is that there exists a system of "numbers", extending the rational number system, adequate for measuring continuous quantities. Moreover, that such "numbers" are in one-to-one correspondence with points on a "number line". But…
