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

STUDENTS’ GEOMETRIC THINKING ON TRIANGLES: MUCH IMPROVEMENT IS NEEDED
A look into students’ misconceptions help explain the very low geometric thinking and may assist teachers in correcting errors to aid students in reaching a higher van Hiele geometric thinking level.

GEOMETRICAL KNOWLEDGE LEVEL ACCORDING TO VAN HIELE’S MODEL
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 ...

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 ...

Effect of the VAN Hiele Instructional Model on Students’ Achievement in Geometry
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the Van Hiele instructional model on students’ achievement in Circle Geometry at Daffiama Senior High School in the Daffiama‐Bussie‐Issa District of the Upper West Region in Ghana. The purposive and simple random sampling techniques were employed to select a sample of 75 participants for the ...
