Abstract

The vision of Mathematics Curriculum promoted by the NCTM's Curriculum and Evaluation Standards for School Mathematics (1989) is based on two guiding principles: “First, activities should grow out of problem situations; and second, learning occurs through active as well as passive involvement with mathematics” (1989, 9). In particular, curriculum should be designed to support students in constructing their own mathematical ideas and connections. Students should solve problems, communicate ideas both orally and in writing, engage in mathematical reasoning, and search for mathematical connections.
