The Theory of Mathematical Working Spaces in Brief

Abstract: This chapter contains an overview of the main points of the theory of MWS in relation to frequently asked questions. The aim is to form the basis of an online glossary of the theory, to be completed according to the contributions of researchers. Main purpose of the theory:Describing, understanding and (trans)forming mathematical work in a school context.

“…The results suggest that an opportunity exists for future studies to consider qualitative research focused on education levels including early childhood, primary, and adult education, where mathematical work can be strengthened based on teacher education and the efforts of teacher educators. Meanwhile, quantitative research approaches have been less utilized from this theoretical perspective, and they could be considered, for example, in mixed-methods research or projects (Creswell & Creswell, 2023) in which MWS theory could contribute not only to describing or characterizing mathematical work, but also to understanding and transforming MWS (Kuzniak et al, 2022). The latter point in particular (transforming MWS) stands out as a key opportunity for future research.…”

“…The theory of MWS is currently in a period of advancement, which leads to the consideration of both theoretical and methodological aspects of research that is underpinned by this framework Kuzniak y Nechache, 2021;Nechache & Gómez-Chacón, 2022). Its main purpose within mathematics education is to describe, understand, and transform mathematical work in educational contexts (Kuzniak et al, 2022).…”

“…The main goal of the MWS analytical approach (Kuzniak et al, 2022) is to characterise mathematical work performed in an educational context to facilitate and improve the conditions in which the teaching-learning process of mathematics occurs. For this, the MWS theory considers two dimensions: epistemological and cognitive, represented as horizontal planes in Fig.…”

“…For the model of the Mathematical Working Spaces (MWS) (Kuzniak et al, 2016;Kuzniak et al, 2022), there is an interest in understanding how reality affects the development of a mathematical task (Lagrange, 2018) or in types of mathematical tasks located in reality to encourage didactic approaches for teaching and learning. This topic has been considered in the last international symposia on mathematical work (Nechache, 2018;Guerrero-Ortiz & Henríquez-Rivas, 2018), generating complementarity between modelling and ETM, promoting the design of modelling tasks based on real contexts.…”
