Popis: International audience; In this poster I explore a new approach to analysing tasks in mathematics education. By seeing tasks as an instrument in and of itself, I can use the instrumental approach, and the notion of instrumental genesis to describe how a student could be able to internalise mathematical knowledge and methods through working with tasks. This also highlights the developmental nature of tasks, and can in turn provide a way to understand aspects of transitions between and within educational institutions.
