Abstract
The research reported in the companion chapter (Spoken Mathematics as an Instructional Strategy) revealed significant differences in the public mathematical discourse practised in various classrooms around the world. It is clear that the pedagogies practised in many mathematics classrooms also permit and even promote student-to-student mathematical speech.
