Reseña del libro "Vrunda Prabhu, Honorary Volume I, 1961-2013: Mathematician, Educator, Poet, The Teacher-Researcher of Life-in-Truth (en Inglés)"
This is the Festschrift or Honorary Volume I for Dr. Vrunda Prabhu, Indian Mathematician, Mathematics Educator, Poet; the Teacher-Researcher of Life-in-Truth. The volume I contains her papers in Mathematics and Mathematics Education, while the separate Volume II, Creativity of Vrunda Prabhu contains papers and poems written by collaborators and friends in her honor, her own collection of the poetry published for the first time and the papers exploring her pedagogical classroom creativity. Here, in the first volume we encounter Prabhu's reflections upon mathematics of Cech imbeddings in Hausdorf spaces, teaching limits in Freshman calculus while reintroducing epsilon/delta definition and chasing student intuition of indivisibles through Porter-Wallis integrals well as through Achilles/Torrtoise paradox. We see Prabhu here as the teacher researcher fully in command of the teaching-research methodology where she has to constantly play a dual role of the teacher and investigator of student understanding mathematics. She does it in the Bronx among Bronx working class minorities students and in Tamil Nadu, India among the Dalits (previously: untouchables; Harijani-for Ghandi), in each case putting herself on the line.
