Description:
For decades, attempts to communicate the advantages of reform-based curricula to parents have largely failed. Using phenomenography, we investigate public perceptions of the (not) new mathematics as expressed in responses to recent media coverage as a first phase in a project aimed at learning how to communicate reforms to parents.
