Abstract
The importance of examples and exemplification in mathematical thinking, learning and teaching, is well recognized by mathematicians, epistemologists and mathematics educators. In this paper, we aim to contribute to the debate on this theme and we present the collection of papers published on a special issue, proposing original studies carried out from different approaches and perspectives, and linked to other relevant topics within mathematics education.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
