| Abstract | School mathematics is governed by a powerful tradition as regards both content and methods. In the first stage of the Alternative Course of Mathematics (ALM) project, an analysis is being made of the mathematics used in the everyday life of the community. By interviewing adults and children outside school, an analysis is also being made of the way in which people handle this mathematics, which methods they employ and how, for example, they use modern aids such as the pocket calculator. Both analyses can be related to the concept of "Ethnomathematics" in the broad sense. The main concern of the ALM project is to inquire whether any of this mathematics can be introduced as an alternative in school mathematics and whether any of the methods which people use in their everyday lives or in their working lives can also be presented as a method in school mathematics. Under the ALM project, therefore, parallel to research activities, an experimental scheme is being conducted in various grades to test new methods. (Author/YP) |
