"Mathematical and Analogical Reasoning of Young Learners" provides
foundational knowledge of the nature, development, and assessment
of mathematical and analogical reasoning in young children.
Reasoning is fundamental to understanding mathematics and is
identified as one of the 10 key standards for school mathematics
for the new millennium. The book draws on longitudinal and
cross-cultural studies, conducted in the United States and
Australia, of children's reasoning development as they progressed
from preschool through the end of second grade.
The multifaceted analysis of young children's development of
mathematical and analogical reasoning focuses on individual
learners, their learning environments, and the interaction between
the two. The multidisciplinary team of authors present multiple
perspectives and multiple methodologies, and provide valuable
information on organizing and sustaining interdisciplinary and
cross-cultural inquiry. Key issues addressed include:
*the relationship between mathematical and analogical reasoning;
*how changes in children's reasoning relate to the implicit
instruction they receive in their classrooms;
*analyses of the participating teachers' knowledge, beliefs, and
practices with respect to mathematical and analogical reasoning of
young learners; and
*ways in which we might promote development of mathematical and
analogical reasoning in young children.
This volume is highly relevant for mathematics educators,
researchers in mathematics education, educational psychologists,
early childhood teachers, and others interested in mathematical
development of young children, in particular, the development of
their reasoning processes.
