Fish and Dyscalculia

Posted on by

Dyscalculia: News from the web:

if we want to study the genetics behind mathematical abilities, we might benefit from a faster growing species, such as fish.

The basis for Developmental Dyscalculia

Posted on by

Dyscalculia: News from the web:

Good article about what the basis for developmental dyscalculia could be:

  • a unique cognitive deficit because of a
    unique pathophysiology
  • multiple cognitive deficits because of
    multiple or unique pathophysiology
  • multiple behavioural disorders

Dyscalculia: News from the web:

Here are the results from yet another recent study:

most participating teachers do not have adequate knowledge and experience on the meaning, effects, root causes of dyscalculia, and intervention strategies for dyscalculic children.

When Algebra holds you back

Posted on by

Dyscalculia: News from the web:

Algebra is a gatekeeper. For the 6% of students with dyscalculia (i.e.,
mathematical learning disabilities), an inability to pass algebra may significantly limit academic and career opportunities. Unfortunately, prior
research on dyscalculia has focused almost exclusively on elementary-aged
students’ deficits in speed and accuracy in arithmetic calculation. This case
study expands our understanding of dyscalculia by documenting how one
college student with dyscalculia understood algebra during a one-on-one
design experiment.
