摘要:

The talk starts with a triad of mathematical ontology, epistemology and cognition. The triad is discussed in a triune perspectival manner: contrast/identification, variation and distribution which can also be interpreted in another triad: particle, wave and field from the fields of both physics and linguistics. The multi-perspectival understanding offers us insights into the nature of mathematical objects and mathematical learning, with a focus on the construction of mathematical knowledge structure in the minds of learners. All of these significantly contributes to effective mathematics instructions.  As an exemplar application, virtual reality based linear algebra teaching is outlined to illustrate the innovation of the proposed methodology and ideology for mathematics instruction: course design and implementations.
