| Abstract | This article contains a small selection of mathematical fiction chosen with the teaching of mathematics in secondary school in mind. However, an attempt is made to classify the works and provide a few ideas about how these items may be used by mathematics teachers, sometimes, but not necessarily, in collaboration with science and humanities teachers, to introduce, teach and supplement mathematics learning (for example, in the discussion of mathematical applications) in secondary schools. This paper emphasizes how mathematical fiction may stimulate the interest of reluctant mathematics learners, reinforce the motivation of the student who is already intrigued by mathematics, introduce topics, supply interesting applications, and provide mathematical ideas in a literary and at times, highly visual context. Furthermore, with thoughtful selection and careful teaching, this body of creative writing can also help explain mathematics topics to students. (Contains 5 figures.) (ERIC). |
