An Introduction to Mathematical Cognition by Camilla Gilmore (English) Paperback

Description: An Introduction to Mathematical Cognition by Camilla Gilmore, Matthew Inglis, Silke M. Göbel Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The book traces the development of mathematical skills from basic number concepts to mathematical proofs, emphasising the hierarchical nature of mathematical development from early childhood to research-level mathematics. Publisher Description The last decade has seen a rapid growth in our understanding of the cognitive systems that underlie mathematical learning and performance, and an increased recognition of the importance of this topic. This book showcases international research on the most important cognitive issues that affect mathematical performance across a wide age range, from early childhood to adulthood. The book considers the foundational competencies of nonsymbolic and symbolic number processing before discussing arithmetic, conceptual understanding, individual differences and dyscalculia, algebra, number systems, reasoning and higher-level mathematics such as formal proof. Drawing on diverse methodology from behavioural experiments to brain imaging, each chapter discusses key theories and empirical findings and introduces key tasks used by researchers. The final chapter discusses challenges facing the future development of the field of mathematical cognition and reviews a set of open questions that mathematical cognition researchers should address to move the field forward. This book is ideal for undergraduate or graduate students of psychology, education, cognitive sciences, cognitive neuroscience and other academic and clinical audiences including mathematics educators and educational psychologists. Author Biography Camilla Gilmore is a Reader in Mathematical Cognition in the Mathematics Education Centre at Loughborough University.
