Based on a case study on task design related to the definition of curve integrals in vector analysis, we examine a modest design for realizing the paradigm of “questioning the world” in the study of a certain type of definition in mathematical analysis, and more generally, the conditions and constraints this paradigm meets in university mathematics education

Collaboration is central to impacting mathematics teaching and learning. As a university mathematics education professor (the first author) and a graduate student in mathematics education and former high school mathematics teacher (the second author), we have initiated partnerships with urban and rural middle schools, families, and preservice teachers during the past five years, using Family Math Nights (FMNs) as the vehicle for collaboration. FMNs are events that usually take place in school gyms, libraries, or cafeterias to promote awareness and inspire interest in K-12 mathematics education. The events are highly interactive, with stations that allow both adults and students to interact with teachers to better understand what inquiry and best practices in mathematics look like. The approach that we facilitated is quite different from the typical approach to designing and implementing FMNs.
