What can discursive psychology do for research in mathematics education?

Richard Barwell
Graduate School of Education
University of Bristol

Tuesday 5th December 2005
5.30 - 7.00 pm


Discursive psychology has emerged as an anti-cognitivist, anti-realist  
perspective on cognition. This approach includes both a theorisation of  
the role of discursive practice in thinking, and a methodological  
approach to researching psychological problems. Discursive psychology  
has informed much of my research into the role of multilingualism in  
the teaching and learning of mathematics. In this seminar, I reflect on  
what the adoption of this perspective has allowed me to see, as well as  
what it may have obscured. These reflections will be illustrated by  
examples from my own work, as well as examples from other published  
research. I will conclude by considering what discursive psychology  
could offer research in mathematics education more generally.

Venue:
Room G8
Franklin Wilkins Building Annex, Waterloo Road.
The entrance to the School of Education is on Waterloo Road, just off
