In this book, Jill Adler captures three inter-related dilemmas that lie at the heart of teaching mathematics in multilingual classrooms. Adler's identification and naming of the \u003cem\u003edilemma of code-switching, the\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003edilemma of mediation\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003ethe dilemma of transparency\u003c\/em\u003e, arise from exploring the realities of actual classrooms, and are shaped by a perspective of teaching as a social practice. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdler provides a sharp analysis and strong theoretical grounding for her work, pulling together research related to the relationship between language and mathematics, communicating mathematics, and mathematics in bi-\/multilingual settings. In so doing, she offers a direct challenge to dominant research on communication in mathematics classrooms that has  othered' the multilingual setting in its normalisation of the monolingual classroom. The  norm' is a multicultural one. Set in contemporary South Africa - a context of linguistic diversity and rapid change - this book offers a spotlight whose beam is wide enough to illuminate dilemmas at work in all mathematics classrooms. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47614353768599,"sku":"9780792370802","price":11210.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780792370802.webp?v=1775092922","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/teaching-mathematics-in-multilingual-classrooms-9780792370802","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
