Early algebra : research into its nature, its learning, its teaching
The survey of the state of the art on research in early algebra traces the evolution ofa relatively new field of research and teaching practice. With its focus on the younger student, aged from about 6 years up to 12 years, this document reveals the nature of the research that has been carried out in early algebra and how it has shaped the growth of the field. The survey attempts to tease out o…

Data visualization in society
Today we are witnessing an increased use of data visualization in society. Across domains such as work, education and the news, various forms of graphs, charts and maps are used to explain, convince and tell stories. In an era in which more and more data are produced and circulated digitally, and digital tools make visualization production increasingly accessible, it is important to study the c…

Early geometrical thinking in the environment of patterns, mosaics and isomet…
This survey confirms that one of the research trends in early geometrical reasoning has been a focus on creating a theoretical basis for research in this area. The main reason for the work on the theoretical foundations has been the fact that building geometrical concepts proceeds according to other regularities more than it takes place while building arithmetic knowledge. In this way, a broad …
