Semiotics as a Tool for Learning Mathematics / edited by Adalira Sáenz-Ludlow, Gert Kadunz.

Semiotics as a Tool for Learning Mathematics is a collection of ten theoretical and empirical chapters, from researchers all over the world, who are interested in semiotic notions and their practical uses in mathematics classrooms. Collectively, they present a semiotic contribution to enhance pedago...
