- Abstract
- The purpose of this study is on the relationships between students
uses and understandings of the notions of infinity and limit in both
colloquial and mathematical discourses. How students colloquial
discourse on infinity and limit correlates with their mathematical
discourse, in the case of an American and a Korean student, will be
analyzed based on three distinctive features of mathematical discourses:
mathematical uses of words, discursive routines, and endorsed
narratives. According to the results of the current study, colloquial
discourse seems to correlate with mathematical discourse because of
certain clear relationships between the colloquial and mathematical
discourses of the American and Korean students on infinity and limit.
