IMPACT (Interweaving Mathematics Pedagogy and Content for Teaching) is an exciting new series of texts for teacher education which aims to advance the learning and teaching of mathematics by integrating mathematics content with the broader research and theoretical base of mathematics education.

The Learning and Teaching of Algebra provides a pedagogical framework for the teaching and learning of algebra grounded in theory and research.

Areas covered include:

• Algebra: Setting the Scene

• Some Lessons From History

• Seeing Algebra Through the Eyes of a Learner

• Emphases in Algebra Teaching

• Algebra Education in the Digital Era

This guide will be essential reading for trainee and qualified teachers of mathematics, graduate students, curriculum developers, researchers and all those who are interested in the "problématique" of teaching and learning algebra. It allows you to get involved in the wealth of knowledge that teachers can draw upon to assist learners, helping you gain the insights that mastering algebra provides.

"The book makes a valuable contribution to the existing literature in terms of the teaching and learning of algebra. At the same time it is different, in various ways: one of the differences is that it has been co-authored by three authors, rather than edited, which provides the reader with a more coherent reading."— Birgit Pepin, Nieuw Archief voor Wiskunde (Dutch Journal of the Royal Mathematics Society)
