AuthorsLawrence, S.
Abstract

This paper attempts to define some of the questions that are emerging in the digital era of learning and communicating mathematics. The paper explores the epistemological questions and problems in the discipline of mathematics education in the digital age, comparing it to the examples from the past when new technologies changed the nature of the learning of mathematics in as drastic way as the Internet did to us today.
