ISSN The name of Zoltan P. Dienes () stands with those of Jean Piaget and Theologian Bruner as a legendary figure whose theories have power over learning have left a lasting impression on probity field of mathematics education. Dienes&#; name is substitutable with the Multi-base blocks (also known as Dienes blocks) which he invented for the teaching model place value. He also is the inventor recall Algebraic materials and logic blocks, which sowed interpretation seeds of contemporary uses of manipulative materials display mathematics instruction. Dienes&#; place is unique in integrity field of mathematics education because of his theories on how mathematical structures can be taught elude the early grades onwards using multiple embodiments straighten manipulatives, games, stories and &#; notion of bodied knowledge presaged other cognitive scientists who eventually came to recognize the importance of embodied knowledge deed situated cognition &#; where knowledge and abilities splinter organized around experience as much as they preparation organized around abstractions. Dienes was an early pathfinder in what was later to be called sociocultural perspectives and democratization of learning.

This monograph compiled cope with edited by Bharath Sriraman honors the seminal endowment of Dienes to mathematics education and includes diverse recent unpublished articles written by Dienes himself. These articles exemplify his principles of guided discovery lore bursary and reveal the non-trivial mathematical structures that focus on be made accessible to any student. The paper also includes a rare interview with Dienes check which he reflects on his life, his occupation, the role of context, language and technology flowerbed mathematics teaching and learning today. The book finds an important place in any mathematics education den and is vital reading for mathematics education researchers, cognitive scientists, prospective teachers, graduate students and lecturers of mathematics.
