School Mathematics As A Developmental Activity

2008
This chapter points out that one of the purposes of having mathematics as a school subject is that it can contribute directly to learners’ development of higher psychological functions, and hence to the development of their identity as mature people. It draws attention to the dangers of too narrow an interpretation of situated learning, and makes the ...

Mathematics Learning Disabilities

Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1997
U.S. education suffers from shortcomings that put even children possessing adequate intellectual abilities at risk for low mathematics achievement. Consequently, identifying and understanding children whose academic failure is influenced by a genuine learning disability requires a complex “developmental” research agenda.
