On May 10-15, 2013, Tommy Dreyfus from Tel Aviv University visited Umeå Mathematics Education Research Centre (UMERC). During his visit, he participated in different seminars and worked together with members of UMERC, in particular with research students.
Tommy Dreyfus' research interests include mathematical thinking, concept formation, processes of abstraction, and various aspects of learning and teaching about proof, as well as theoretical and methodological issues of research in mathematics education. In teaching, he aims to convey how mathematical meaning grows out of the connectivity of concepts, processes and representations of mathematical objects.
