Shares the power of infusing maths class with the spirit of revision so that students feel comfortable thinking aloud as they talk to learn through problem-solving rather than talking only to perform right answers. In the process, a class becomes a community of maths thinkers, and teachers gain access into their students' ideas and understandings.

This book records the state of the art in research on mathematics-related affect. The first dimension identifies three broad categories of affect: motivation, emotions, and beliefs. All chapters in the book focus on trait-type affect and the chapter on motivation discusses both these dimensions.
