From the reviews:
“This book is about mathematics in te reo Māori, the Indigenous language of Aetoroa New Zealand … . The theoretical development is worthy of note by all mathematics educators … . It provides a comprehensive coverage of how one large Indigenous language group nationally developed its mathematics register and met the challenges of implementing education in te reo Māori. … it provides, for every mathematics educator, a strong recognition of the importance of ethnomathematics in current school education.” (Kay Owens, Mathematics Education Research Journal, Vol. 25, 2013)
“The book presents eleven self-contained case studies, each highlighting a different aspect of using te reo Maori in mathematics classrooms. … The unprecedented comprehensiveness of this research does provide insights well beyond the particular case of te kura kaupapa Maori o te koutu. The book, therefore, will be of interest not only to the ethnomathematical specialist but to anyone interested in the teaching and learning of mathematics in a context of cultural difference.” (Philipp Ullmann, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1242, 2012)
