| Abstract | This is a story of a high achieving 15-year-old boy called Alex. The story is not about the achievement in class per se, but rather a story of what kind of role mathematics plays in his everyday life. High performance in school mathematics does not automatically mean thinking is flexible and performance reaches the same level outside school. However, this story shows how a boy, who does not value mathematics higher than any other school subject, can transfer the knowledge he has in mathematics outside the classroom quite naturally and spontaneously seek for valid examples from school mathematics when talking about mathematics in general. |
