Psychology and Mathematics Education.
Overview & Synopsis
Analyzes the relationship between cognitive psychology as a broad theoretical framework, and the psychology of mathematics education. Argues that mathematics education should not simply borrow from cognitive psychology; rather, it should provide its own psychological research problems, adapted investigation strategies, and adequate original concepts. Presents some examples that emphasize the difference between a broad cognitive approach and that of psychology of mathematics education. (Author/ASK)
