Down from the ivory tower : bringing research into the classroom - news from PME #25 (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

The 25th conference of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, held at Utrecht University, emphasized the importance of cognitive units in mathematical thinking as presented by Tony Barnard and David Tall. Their research explores how students compress multiple cognitive units into more meaningful organizations, facilitating deeper understanding. By drawing connections between concepts and building internal links, students can improve their problem-solving skills and conceptual thinking in mathematics teaching.
