Judy Patterson (1948–2015) was an inspiring teacher educator and it is to her and her family that this book is dedicated. One of the last academic tasks that she undertook was to complete a review of a chapter that is included in this book. Her knowledge, skills, and willingness to give to the community of mathematics education researchers will be sorely missed, as will her infectious laughter. Vale, Judy
Acknowledgement
Funding to bring the keynote speakers, Professor Alan Bishop, Monash University, and Professor Helen May, University of Otago, to Malmö for the conference was obtained from the Swedish Research Council. Without this funding and the keynotes, the conference would not have prompted the in-depth discussions which led to the development of the chapters included in this book.
