Mathematical Group Cognition in the Anthropocene
摘要
By providing an illustrative case of educating for the Anthropocene, this chapter suggests that dynamic geometry as taught in the reviewed research project can provide student thinking with a model of dependencies in interconnected systems. Review of this research into the development of mathematical cognition by student groups learning dynamic geometry in online teams elaborates a theory of learning and thinking as “group cognition.” This conception of group cognition seems appropriate for designing the teaching and learning of mathematics in the Anthropocene.
