Problem Posing|Solving as Enactive Metaphorizing

Volkan Sevim

Abstract

Open peer commentary on the article “Enactive Metaphorizing in the Mathematical Experience” by Daniela Díaz-Rojas, Jorge Soto-Andrade & Ronnie Videla-Reyes. Abstract: I offer some connections between Díaz-Rojas, Soto-Andrade and Videla-Reyes’s work on the role of students’ enactive conceptual metaphorizing experiences in mathematics, and existing research on learning and problem posing in mathematics education.
