This handbook presents the state-of-the art scholarship on theoretical frames, mathematical content, learning environments, pedagogic practices, teacher professional learning, and policy issues related to the development and use of digital resources in mathematics education. With the advent of more and more open access digital resources, teachers choose from the web what they see fit for their classroom; students choose ‘in the moment’ what they need for their projects and learning paths. However, educators and students often find it difficult to choose from the abundance of materials on offer, as they are uncertain about their quality and beneficial use. It is clear that at a time of bouleversement of the teaching-learning processes, it is crucial to understand the quality and the (potentially) transformative aspects of digital resources. This book provides comprehensive analyses of and insights into the transformative aspects of digital resources.

This book explores the connection between the ways people speak in mathematics classrooms and their opportunities to learn mathematics. The words spoken, heard, written and read in mathematics classrooms shape students’ sense of what mathematics is and of what people can do with mathematics. The authors employ multiple perspectives to consider the means for transformative action with respect to increasing opportunities for traditionally marginalized students to form mathematical identities that resonate with their cultural, social, linguistic, and political beings.
