Abstract
- Drawing on 1386 questionnaire responses, 11- and 12-year old primary students in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan valued the same six orientations in their mathematics learning. These are achievement, relevance, practice, communication, information and communication technologies [ICT], and feedback. Each of these six values was also embraced to different degrees by students across the three regions. These findings shed light on how students' values might be used to support learning, at the same time emphasising that such values are culture-dependent. [For the complete proceedings, see ED597799.]
