Learning mathematics and competences: Bringing together three theoretical perspectives

This symposium emerges from the on-going work of the Project LEARN. This Project is one of the activities of the Technology, Mathematics and Society Learning Research Group of the Centre for Research in Education at the University of Lisbon. The research programme of the Group aims to bring together elements of three theoretical perspectives – Activity Theory, Situated Learning and Critical Mathematics Education – in order to illuminate forms of learning within a wide range of settings and activity having a relevant dimension of technology and/or mathematics.
