Realistic Mathematics Education
- bare number calculations
- little attention applications (especially not at start)
- teaching is transmission * atomized * step-by-step
- activity principle
- reality principle
- level principle
- intertwinement principle
- interactivity principle
- guidance principle

Rather than beginning with abstractions or definitions to be applied later, one must start with rich contexts that ask for mathematical organization; or, in other words, one must start with contexts that can be mathematized.
Freudenthal
“What humans have to learn is not mathematics as a closed system, but rather as an activity, the process of mathematizing reality and if possible even that of mathematizing mathematics.” (1968)
