Davit Kapanadze holds a doctorate in Pedagogical Sciences and is a mathematics educator and researcher from Georgia.
His research focuses on mathematics education, with particular emphasis on the conceptual foundations and teaching of differential calculus.
He is the author of numerous scientific and pedagogical publications, including books, school textbooks, and research papers devoted to the methodology of teaching mathematics.
In this monograph, he develops an algebraic–geometric approach to the construction of the derivative, in which the concept is introduced through an algebraic criterion of tangency rather than through the limit as the initial definition.
His current research also extends this algebraic and operator-based perspective to fractional calculus, including the study and construction of the half-derivative and other fractional-order derivatives.
