In French, for example, to know in the \u003cem\u003esavoir\u003c\/em\u003e sense is to know things, facts, names, how and why things work, and so on, whereas to know in the \u003cem\u003econnaître\u003c\/em\u003e sense is to know a person, a place, or even a thing—namely, an \u003cem\u003eother\u003c\/em\u003e— in such a way that one is familiar with, or in relationship with this other. Primarily through phenomenological reflection with a touch of empirical input, this book fleshes out an image for what a person’s \u003cem\u003econnaître\u003c\/em\u003e knowing of mathematics might mean, turning to mathematics teachers and teacher educators to help clarify this image.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54246160793944,"sku":"9781138017764","price":65.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138017764_8cad5134-481d-41bc-b6ce-08ca8acecdb7.jpg?v=1770505247","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/what-does-understanding-mathematics-mean-for-teachers","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
