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.
