O livro compara a forma de ensinar matemática em diferentes países e o reflexo desses diferentes métodos nos resultados obtidos. A conclusão gira em torno da necessidade de um estudo profundo da melhor forma de dar cada aula, algo que pode ser feito de forma colaborativa e incremental.
Sem dúvida um excelente caminho, fosse ele possível em nossa cultura brasileira.

Purchase options and add-ons
Ten years after its first publication, The Teaching Gap remains "a critical resource" (Publishers Weekly) for anyone involved in education. In paperback for the first time, it has been fully revised and includes a new preface and afterword by the authors.
American schools have famously lagged behind foreign schools in all areas of academic achievement. When James W. Stigler and James Hiebert made their assessment of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) ten years ago, they discovered that the problem with American education is neither one of testing nor curricula, but teaching. A clarion call for treating teaching like the craft it is, The Teaching Gap lays out a clear program for change that administrators, teachers, and parents can implement together. Newly updated with fresh teaching solutions drawn from new research, this educational classic is as vital a teaching tool as ever.

Product description
Review
Lee S. Shulman President, The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching A revolutionary book...brilliantly documents the ways in which America's teaching, rather than its teachers, contributes to deficits in student learning. Stigler and Hiebert help us recognize how many opportunities other nations' teachers have to learn from one another and to improve as professionals. The Teaching Gap offers far better hope for the improvement of American education than most other initiatives.

Reviewed in Mexico on 25 September 2017Verified Purchase
Es un libro bastante interesante. Describe de forma práctica la forma de enseñar matemáticas de los profesores de alemanes, japoneses y americanos. Si lo lees con cuidado, podrás encontrar sugerencias para aplicar en el salón de clases, o para realizar una investigación. Muy muy recomendado, aunque recomiendo la pasta dura (mejor durabilidad y mayor presentación). No me agradan los formatos de pasta blanda.

Great insights into the cultural aspects of mathematics education and how they affect classroom practice and the teaching of mathematics. Supplement it with the sample videos from the TIMSS website.
