This book draws together a range of papers by experienced writers in mathematics education who have used the concept of situated cognition in their research within recent years. Thus it provides an up-to-date overview of developmentsand applications to which other researchers can refer and which will inspire future research. It is appropriate to review the field now and collect a rangeof papers which all relate to situated cognition and show.
