Abstract

This paper presents a case study of one teacher, the aim being to distinguish strategies of connecting mathematics with everyday life and the underlying beliefs. A case study provides us with the opportunity to portray, analyse, and interpret real individuals and situations in their uniqueness. The article presents practical examples of how a teacher connects mathematics with everyday life by arranging small-projects and using other sources than the textbook.
