Why Mathematics at the High School Level Evolved to Include Linguistics
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
This article foregrounds the fundamental role that language can play in communicating mathematical ideas and contexts. The findings from this article contribute to an understanding of different ways textbook series with particular orientations make opportunities available for students to develop forms of agency and autonomy during classroom learning. The article also contributes methodology for analyzing mathematical texts of different genres.
