Brain Networks Supporting Execution of Mathematical Skills versus Acquisition of New Mathematical Competence
This fMRI study examines how students extend their mathematical competence. Students solved a set of algebra-like problems. These problems included Regular Problems that have a known solution technique and Exception Problems that but did not have a known technique. Two distinct networks of activity were uncovered. There was a Cognitive Network that was mainly active during the solution of probl...
متن کاملBrain Correlates of Mathematical Competence in Processing Mathematical Representations
The ability to extract numerical information from different representation formats (e.g., equations, tables, or diagrams) is a key component of mathematical competence but little is known about its neural correlate. Previous studies comparing mathematically less and more competent adults have focused on mental arithmetic and reported differences in left angular gyrus (AG) activity which were in...
متن کاملMathematical Abilities and Mathematical Skills
The participants of this Conference run mathematics outreach programmes and mathematics competitions in countries with very diverse educational and cultural traditions. It would be futile to try to seek a single universal solution to educational and methodological problems that we encounter in our work. However, we have one thing in common: we work with mathematically able children. It is likel...
متن کاملSupporting Acquisition of Basic Skills
• FOr teaChers Teachers and parents have two educational roles with respect to their charges: instructor and mentor. Instructors induce aptitudes: abstract skills and knowledge. Mentors foster attitudes: social skills and graces. In my experience of school, starting 70 years or so ago, quite regimented instruction predominated in the earlier stages, with the aim of developing basic skills by re...
