国际数学教材研究和发展趋势述评和分析——从首届国际数学教材研究和发展会议及其大会报告说起

Review and Analysis of International Trends in Mathematics Textbook Research and Development

由于数学教材在整个数学课程计划和实施以及在提高课堂教学质量中的重要地位,数学教材研究在过去的几十年中已经在国际数学教育界受到越来越多的关注.通过介绍首届国际数学教材研究和发展会议(ICMT2014)的大会报告,分析和展望国际数学教材研究与发展的趋势:动态的电子教材成为发展的必然,未来教材更具交互性、更具人性化、更关注评价,教材的发展是一个逐步走向完善的过程,未来教材对使用者会带来更多的挑战;教材研究必须更多地作为严谨的科学研究,需要更具坚实理论基础、视野更广和更具系统性的研究,需要更多的实证性教材研究和关于学生学习成果数据分析的研究,需要更多的直接专注于教材发展问题的研究.

Over the last decades, the research on mathematics textbooks has received increasing attention from the international mathematics education community because of the important role of the mathematics textbooks in mathematics curriculum planning and implementation as well as in improving the quality of classroom teaching and learning. In this article, we start from the inaugural International Conference on Mathematics Textbook Research and Development(ICMT2014) and its plenary reports, review and analyze the general trends of international mathematics textbook research and development: dynamic digital textbooks will become a reality; future textbooks will be more interactive, more individualized, and more assessment-integrated; the development of textbooks is a process of gradual improvement and perfection, while the use of future textbooks will bring more challenges to the users; textbook research needs to be treated more as rigorous scientific research, needs more sound theoretical underpinnings, broader perspectives and more systematic research,and needs more empirical research that is based on the analysis of student learning achievements and research that is more directly targeted at the issues about textbook development.
