International Reflections on the Netherlands Didactics of Mathematics: Visions on and Experiences with Realistic Mathematics Education
This open access book, inspired by the ICME 13 Thematic Afternoon on “European Didactic Traditions”, takes readers on a journey with mathematics education researchers, developers and educators in eighteen countries, who reflect on their experiences with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), the domain-specific instruction theory for mathematics education developed in the Netherlands since the late 1960s. Authors from outside the Netherlands discuss what aspects of RME appeal to them, their criticisms of RME and their past and current RME-based projects. It is clear that a particular approach to mathematics education cannot simply be transplanted to another country. As such, in eighteen chapters the authors describe how they have adapted RME to their individual circumstances and view on mathematics education, and tell their personal stories about how RME has influenced their thinking on mathematics education.This open access book, inspired by the ICME 13 Thematic Afternoon on “European Didactic Traditions”, takes readers on a journey with mathematics education researchers, developers and educators in eighteen countries, who reflect on their experiences with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME), the domain-specific instruction theory for mathematics education developed in the Netherlands since the late 1960s.

About the authors
Prof. dr. Marja van den Heuvel-Panhuizen is a Full Professor of Mathematics Education at Utrecht University and holds a chair at the Freudenthal Institute of Mathematics and Science Education (FIsme) of the Science Faculty and at the Department of Pedagogical and Educational Sciences of the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences. She works as a researcher at the Freudenthal Institute since 1987 and was and is involved in many national and international projects. Among other things, in the winter semester 2004-2005, she had a guest professorship at Dortmund University and from 2005 to 2010 she was a visiting professor at IQB of Humboldt University Berlin, where she was involved in a national project on the evaluation and implementation of the standards for primary school mathematics in Germany. In 2012 she received the Svend Pedersen Lecture Award from the Department of Mathematics and Science Education of Stockholm University. Her research interests lie with instruction theory for mathematics education and the further development of the didactics of mathematics as a scientific discipline. Her special interest is assessment. Her focus is on mathematics education in primary school, special education, and early childhood. She is currently involved in research projects on picture books, ICT in mathematics education, STEM talents of young children, students’ early algebraic thinking, identifying special education students’ mathematical potential, disclosing student’s difficulties in solving context problems, textbook analysis and improving classroom assessment.
