In relation to this it is important to investigate what ideas concerning mathematics education that are expressed by teachers and students. The aim of this article is to study how teachers and students in primary school talk about the math book and to emphasize, discuss and problematize emerging discourses. The article is part of a larger project about mathematical education. Data consists of group conversations with 120 students and 8 teachers in two elementary schools in Sweden. The math project was supported by the National Agency for Education 2010-2012. All together 17 hours of video and audio documentation were produced. The theoretical framework is built on poststructuralist and social constructionist theory and two approaches to discourse analysis are applied; the micro oriented discursive psychology as formulated by Potter, and discourse theory as formulated by Laclau and Mouffe. Findings show three prominent discourses emerging from the empirical data: School mathematics, Balance and Mathematical ontology. Related to earlier research in mathematics education this article represent a shift of interpretation as it highlights how teachers and students themselves are talking about and describing what is desirable and not. The results are then discussed with respect to quality in mathematics education.  \nKeywords: discourse, ideological dilemma, mathematics, mathematics education  \nIntroduction  \nDuring the last decade, mathematics education in Sweden has been subject to an intensive debate. All together, reports from PISA and TIMSS revealing deteriorating student results, rising status for school questions in political debates, and millions of Swedish crowns invested to improve results in mathematics, have transformed mathematics education into a central public issue. Also, the number of international scientific publications in mathematical  \neducation has tripled since year 2002 (SummonTM search, 2014), indicating a 􀀍Lecturer, Halmstad University, Sweden.  \n†Lecturer, Halmstad University, Sweden.  \n[https://doi.org/10.30958/aje.3-3-2](https://doi.org/10.30958/aje.3-3-2) doi=10.30958/aje.3-3-2  \ngrowing international interest among researchers. In a survey, Pais and Valero (2012) point out that research objects to a large extent are focused on developing and optimizing learning in mathematics. Often the poor school results are used as an argument to legitimate the research object. Pais and Valero (2012) also emphasize that many studies have an ambition to manage what is usually called the social and political turn, but that these aspects often ends up as an isolated parallel to the main track of teaching and learning in mathematics. They identify three distinct areas:  \n1. Mathematics education research as learning and teaching mathematics in psychological and mathematical frames. Social, political and cultural factors are handled as if they were separated from the mathematical learning.  \n2. Mathematics education research is implemented to improve teaching and learning in mathematics. Frequent arguments are that good mathematics education creates a better society by developing \"intelligence, spreading high morals, strengthening self-confidence and consolidating democracy\" (p. 12) .  \n3. Mathematics education is kept apart from other teaching subjects. It is learning in mathematics that is studied, which is not explored outside the realm of mathematics, for example, from a more general educational perspective.  \nTo put mathematics at the centre of attention is desirable in many respects, but the isolation in relation to other school subjects and to society becomes problematic. It creates a field of research with its own self-defined problems, where those problems are claimed to be sol","cbCail9buoeTLbOQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail9buoeTLbOQ","pdf",580703,16,"English","# Introduction\n## Research context and aim\n## Theoretical framework and data\n## Discourses and findings\n# Related research and shifting focus","[{\"question\":\"What is the aim of the article?\",\"answer\":\"To study how teachers and students in primary school talk about the math book, and to emphasize, discuss, and problematize emerging discourses.\"},{\"question\":\"What data and participants were used in the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study uses group conversations with 120 students and 8 teachers from two elementary schools in Sweden.\"},{\"question\":\"Which analytical perspectives and theories guide the study?\",\"answer\":\"The theoretical framework combines poststructuralist and social constructionist theory, and applies two discourse-analytic approaches: micro-oriented discursive psychology and discourse theory.\"}]","Logics of \"Good teaching\" - Exploring Mathematics Education in Primary School in Sweden | PDF",1792075044]
