Conference (28th : 2004 : Bergen, Norway) Conference location Bergen, Norway Conference dates 14 - 18 July 2004 Title of proceedings PME 2004 : Proceedings of the 28th conference of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education Editor(s) Høines, Marit Johnsen Fuglestad, Anne Berit Publication date 2004 Conference series International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education Conference Start page 257 End page 264 Publisher Bergen University College Place of publication Bergen, Norway Summary We are researching actions that teachers can take to improve mathematics learning for all students. Structural elements of the lessons being trialled include making aspects of pedagogy explicit to seek to overcome differences in familiarity with schooling processes, and sequencing tasks with the potential to engage students. This article reports research on teachers building learning communities by preparing variations to set tasks in order to address differences in students’ backgrounds.
