Critical thinking (CT) skills in mathematics are essential for solving problems involving High Order Thinking Skills (HOTS), although students with dyscalculia often experience difficulties in this process. This study was conducted to analyze the mathematical CT skills of students with dyscalculia in solving HOTS problems by gender using a qualitative method. This study involved male and female students with dyscalculia.

A study with newborns up to three days old reveals that their brains already separate quantities, such as four from twelve stimuli, activating a key area for processing numbers.

For the public, it means babies arrive with mathematical foundations, and detecting problems early could prevent difficulties like dyscalculia.
