Simplest Shapes First! But Let's Use Cognitive Science to Reconceive and Specify What “Simple” Means

open access: yesMind, Brain, and Education, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 5-19, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Children's informal and formal learning experiences with geometric shapes currently result in misconceptions that persist into adulthood. Here, we combine research from mathematics education as well as cognitive science pertaining to concepts, categories, and learning strategies to propose a more optimal progression that is better specified ...

Children building and having fun while they learn geometry

open access: yesComputer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 741-758, May 2022., 2022
Abstract Geometry is a basic discipline in STEM education. Recent educational reports, however, suggest that geometry is one of the subjects that sees the lowest levels of performance in the math curriculum. This paper presents a gamified itinerary through digital activities designed to teach geometry. Our aim is to attract Primary School children into

Learning a new geometric concept: The role of working memory and of domain‐specific abilities

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, Volume 91, Issue 4, Page 1537-1554, December 2021., 2021
It has been suggested that not only domain‐specific factors but also working memory (WM) may play a crucial role in mathematical learning included Geometry, but the issue has not been deeply explored. In the present study, we examined the role of domain‐specific factors and of verbal versus visuospatial WM on geometric learning of a new geometrical ...

GEOMETRICAL KNOWLEDGE LEVEL ACCORDING TO VAN HIELE’S MODEL

open access: yesJournal of Interdisciplinary Debates, 2021
Considering that the appropriation of geometric knowledge can help the student to understand the world around him, this work aims to show how the teacher can analyze his student's level of geometric knowledge. As a theoretical contribution, using the Van Hiele Theory which considers that the appropriation of geometric knowledge occurs at five levels ...

Informal carers’ experiences of caring for someone with Multiple Sclerosis: A photovoice investigation

open access: yesBritish Journal of Health Psychology, Volume 26, Issue 2, Page 360-384, May 2021., 2021
Objectives This study explores the lived experiences of carers of people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), specifically in relation to their quality of life (QoL), through the use of images and narratives, with the aim of gaining a nuanced insight into the complex nature of QoL in the MS caregiving context.

Impaired posterior cingulate cortex–parahippocampus connectivity is associated with episodic memory retrieval problems in amnestic mild cognitive impairment

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 53, Issue 9, Page 3125-3141, May 2021., 2021
We show that parahippocampus and posterior cingulate cortex interact via θ–γ coupling that correlates with memory recollection, but this is altered in amnestic mild cognitive impairment patients. Hence, this study revealed novel information concerning concomitant oscillations and differences in a network centered on the posterior cingulate cortex in ...
