International Perspectives on the Teaching and Learning of Geometry in Secondary Schools

“Research interests concerning and approaches to the teaching and learning of secondary geometry are wide and diverse. … The variety of interests and approaches is reflected in the collection of papers presented in the monograph. … What is clear from each offering is the recognition of the importance and power of geometry, the need for those concerned to comprehend concepts, and the influence of teachers on the outcomes of their wards.” (Rachael Horsman, Research in Mathematics Education, November 19, 2018)
