Re-envisioning our journey of learning in mathematics
ABSTRACTWhen embarking on our journey of learning in mathematics, we may envision a linear path of modules for acquiring mathematical knowledge and understanding to reach a predetermined outcome. However, this is a partial representation since the outcome and path are developing and adapting and our learning is continuously emerging. In this paper, our journey of learning in mathematics is re-envisioned as a complex adaptive system with agents, internal diversity, internal redundancy, decentralised control, sources of disruption and sources of coherence. As will be illustrated through the adaptive cycle of a complex adaptive system, learning may emerge between phases of destabilisation and development. For this emergence there needs to be openness to embrace a disruption, reflection to interpret the disruption, connection to respond to the disruption and inspiration to grow and adapt in response to the disruption. There also needs to be a balance between individual and collective learning. Through navigating these cycles along our journey of learning there may be emergence of learning experiences within and beyond mathematics.KEYWORDS: Complexity adaptive systemlearninguniversity mathematics Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.Additional informationFundingThis project was supported by the Stellenbosch University Teaching Fellowship Award .
期刊介绍:
Mathematics is pervading every study and technique in our modern world, bringing ever more sharply into focus the responsibilities laid upon those whose task it is to teach it. Most prominent among these is the difficulty of presenting an interdisciplinary approach so that one professional group may benefit from the experience of others. The International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology provides a medium by which a wide range of experience in mathematical education can be presented, assimilated and eventually adapted to everyday needs in schools, colleges, polytechnics, universities, industry and commerce. Contributions will be welcomed from lecturers, teachers and users of mathematics at all levels on the contents of syllabuses and methods of presentation.
