摘要
本科数学教育研究是一个相对较新的领域,起源于美国(USA)不到20年的时间,简称RUME (Research in Undergraduate mathematics education)。在南非,这一领域的研究人员组成了一个小而强大的团体,起源于比勒陀利亚大学。本文首先简要概述了国际上对这一研究领域的兴趣和活动的增加。其次,从南非的角度来看待研究领域。研究项目的例子进行了讨论,以及职业道路,导致在这个领域的研究。最后考虑了当地活动和现有的国际联系。本文的目的是对南非的研究领域和活动进行概述,希望能够激励和刺激这一重要且不断发展的领域的研究。
Research on undergraduate mathematics education: A South African perspective.
Research on undergradute mathematics education is a relatively new field that originated less than 20 years ago in the United States of America (USA), and that is known under the acronymn RUME (Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education). In South Africa researchers in this field form a small but strong group that originated at the University of Pretoria. In this article a brief overview is firstly given on the international increase in interest and activities in this research field. Secondly the research field is viewed from a South African perspective. Examples of research projects are discussed, as well as the career path that leads to research in this field. Finally local activities and existing international ties are considered. The aim of this article is to give a South African overview of the research field and activities, hoping to motivate and stimulate research in this important and growing field.
