dc.description.abstract | This paper explores the value of different paradigms to explain dispositions towards
mathematics among primary school students from different social backgrounds. As part of
a larger project designed to elicit students’ thinking and attitudes towards mathematics, we
seek to develop an explanatory model for the socially-differentiated outcomes in students’
responses. The three paradigms – psychology, sociology and post-modernism – form the
basis of the paper where the data we collected from three geographically close but socially
different schools were analysed. | |
