Mathematical Teaching and Learning
This book focusses on teaching and learning in elementary and middle school mathematics and suggests practices for teachers to help children be successful mathematical thinkers. Contributions from diverse theoretical and disciplinary perspectives are explored. Topics include the roles of technology, language, and classroom discussion in mathematics learning, the use of creativity, visuals, and teachers’ physical gestures to enhance problem solving, inclusive educational activities to promote children’s mathematics understanding, how learning in the home can enhance children’s mathematical skills, the application of mathematics learning theories in designing effective teaching tools, an...
The Extended Mind
A bold new book reveals how we can tap the intelligence that exists beyond our brains--in our bodies, our surroundings, and our relationships
›Assassin’s Creed‹ in the Classroom
The open world role-playing Assassin’s Creed video game series is one of the most successful series of all time, praised for its in-depth use of historical characters and events, compelling graphics, and addictive gameplay. Assassin’s Creed games offer up the possibility of exploring history, mythology, and heritage immersively, graphically, and imaginatively. This collection of essays by architects archaeologists and historiansexplores the learning opportunities of playing, modifying, and extending the games in the classroom, on location, in the architectural studio, and in a museum.
Handbook of Children and Screens
This open access handbook synthesizes the current research about the impacts of digital media on children across development. Drawing on the expertise of scientists and researchers as well as clinicians and practitioners, the book summarizes research through interdisciplinary expert reviews. First, it addresses the cognitive, physical, mental, and psychosocial impacts on infants, children, and adolescents. Next, the book explores how media influences relationships, family, culture, and society. Finally, it examines the impacts of specific digital domains pertinent to youth, including education technology, video gaming, and emerging technologies. Chapters employ a parallel structure, includin...
Mathematical Learning and Cognition in Early Childhood
This book explores mathematical learning and cognition in early childhood from interdisciplinary perspectives, including developmental psychology, neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and education. It examines how infants and young children develop numerical and mathematical skills, why some children struggle to acquire basic abilities, and how parents, caregivers, and early childhood educators can promote early mathematical development. The first section of the book focuses on infancy and toddlerhood with a particular emphasis on the home environment and how parents can foster early mathematical skills to prepare their children for formal schooling. The second section examines topics in pre...
Mathematical Cognition and Understanding
This book focuses on elementary and middle school children’s understanding of mathematics as well as the cognitive aspects involved in the development of mathematical knowledge, skills, and understanding. Children’s success in and understanding of mathematics stem from factors beyond the mathematics curriculum. Researchers are increasingly becoming aware of the necessity to consider a complex set of variables when accounting for large individual differences in mathematics achievement. These chapters contribute to how both researchers and educators can consider the multidimensionality of skills involved in developing mathematical knowledge in the middle school years as well as to how this...
Early Childhood Mathematics Skill Development in the Home Environment
This volume presents current research on the connections between the home and family environment on children’s mathematics development. Focusing on infancy through first grade, it details the role of parents and other caregivers in promoting numeracy and the ways their active participation can prepare young children for learning about formal mathematics. Research data answer key questions regarding the development of numeracy alongside cognitive and linguistic skills, early acquisition of specific math skills, and numeracy of children with atypical language skills. The book also provides practical recommendations for parents and other caregivers as well as implications for future research ...

La mente estesa
Siamo convinti che la nostra mente sia la sede esclusiva dell’intelligenza, ma un numero sempre più nutrito di ricerche scientifiche ci dice che non è affatto così. Ci sono una serie di elementi (le percezioni fisiche, lo spazio in cui lavoriamo e la mente delle persone che ci circondano, per esempio) che contribuiscono alle nostre funzioni cognitive e ci permettono di concentrarci più intensamente, comprendere i concetti più in profondità ed essere più creativi. Annie Murphy Paul, giornalista e divulgatrice scientifica, presenta per la prima volta tutte insieme le scoperte di neuroscienziati, cognitivisti, psicologi, educatori, manager e leader in quello che si preannuncia come uno dei campi più sorprendenti della ricerca scientifica, in grado di rivoluzionare la nostra attuale concezione di intelligenza. "La mente estesa" presenta un modo radicalmente nuovo di guardare al funzionamento della nostra mente e riporta le storie affascinanti di artisti, scienziati e autori che hanno già brillantemente fatto ricorso all’intelligenza estesa per risolvere problemi, fare nuove scoperte e creare lavori unici.
