Abstract
|
:
|
Developing mathematics as a multi-semiotic discourse from the perspective of M.A.K. Halliday's systematic functional linguistics, this text involves the use of language, visual images and mathematical symbolism in order to provide a social semiotic perspective which can inform mathematics teaching and learning.
