International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (PME)

The International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (PME) is an independent organization of international researchers who meet every year at the PME conference to discuss current problems and developments in mathematics education. PME was founded at the Third International Congress on Mathematics Education (ICME-3) in Karlsruhe in 1976 and is an official subgroup of the International Commission for Mathematical Instruction (ICMI).

The main goals of PME are to promote and stimulate international contact, interdisciplinary research and exchange of scientific information in mathematical education, as well as developing a deeper and better understanding of psychological and other aspects of teaching and learning mathematics and its implications.

PME provides annual funding for a regional conference to support researchers in regions currently underrepresented at PME. This initiative aims to support the development of a regional research community that pursues the goals of PME, and by doing so, encourage researchers from that region to actively participate in future PME conferences and help them in preparing top quality PME contributions.

Proposal for the PME & Yandex conference in Russia was approved by PME members at the annual general meeting in Sweden last year. This conference will be the second regional conference under this initiative.

About the speaker
arrow
Dor Abrahamson (PhD, Learning Sciences, Northwestern University, 2004) is a design-based researcher of mathematical cognition and instruction at the Graduate School of Education, University of California Berkeley, where he runs the Embodied Design Research Laboratory. Abrahamson draws on constructivist–enactivist, sociocultural, and dynamical systems theories to inform the design and evaluation of interactive educational materials. In turn he analyzes empirical data from implementation studies to develop theoretical models of mathematics education and to refine his pedagogical framework, embodied design. In recent projects, Abrahamson has been developing a new form of technologically enabled mathematics learning activities, the Mathematics Imagery Trainer, to explore relations between the learning of movement and mathematics, as well as to evaluate the relevance of movement science to research on mathematics education. Abrahamson has published widely in the leading journals of his field and has received grants from the Spencer Foundation and the National Science Foundation. 
A New World: Educational Research on the Sensorimotor Roots of Mathematical Reasoning
arrow
Recent developments in the theory and methods of cognitive science are enabling educational researchers to evaluate empirically the historical thesis that mathematical concepts are grounded in sensorimotor activity. My presentation will survey results from several recent design-research studies that have used eye-tracking techniques to capture the moment at which a student first sees the world in a new way. For the student, this spontaneous perceptual construction serves as a handy solution for coordinating the control of an interactive system. In turn, through cultural mediation this construction evolves into a new way of reasoning that becomes a mathematical concept. I will speculate on implications for educational technology.

Brain and mathematics: Implications for education
arrow
According to the world economic forum an estimated 65% of children who are now entering elementary school will graduate to work on completely new occupations that do not exist today (Chapter 1: The Future of Jobs and Skills, 2016). Although, our world is changing rabidly and future labor market requirements are not fully understood, researchers agree that future workforce will have a higher demand for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) majors (Fayer et al., 2017). Mathematics is essential for STEM majors and occupations that are progressively more on demand. Traditionally, mathematics has been a core subject in school curricula and research shows that success in math relies in part on the child’s age and their readiness to receive instruction (Agostino et al., 2010). Advances in mathematical performance coincide with the development of fundamental cognitive processes such as mental competence and the protracted development of brain structures such as the pre-frontal cortex (Pascual-Leone et al., 2010). This plenary will discuss brain correlates of mathematical problem solving in adults and children, and potential implications to education. About twenty years ago, a neurofunctional model was proposed to explain the brain areas that support mental arithmetic, mainly focusing on the functions of the parietal cortex, in posterior parts of the brain (Dehaene & Cohen, 1997; Dehaene et al., 2003). Although this model is based mainly on lesion patient studies, it has stimulated a substantial body of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) research with healthy individuals. fMRI studies on mathematical cognition typically fall into two categories those that use number tasks (i.e., stimuli are numbers or quantities and participants are asked to make simple magnitude judgements) and those that use calculations tasks (i.e., formal mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication). In quantitative Activation Likelihood Estimation (ALE) meta-analyses we examined neurofunctional activity associated with number and calculation tasks in healthy individuals, children (Arsalidou et al., 2018) and adults (Arsalidou & Taylor, 2011). Data shows that a large overlap exists among brain regions implicated in number and calculation tasks, however the regions in which they differed were most notable, such as distinct areas in prefrontal cortices. Specifically, compared to number tasks, solving calculation tasks elicit more activity in prefrontal brain areas; a difference, which suggests that calculations implicate more core cognitive resources, such as working memory and mental-attention (Arsalidou et al., 2013). Moreover, addition, subtraction and multiplication differentially implicated brain regions in the parietal and prefrontal cortex in the left and right hemispheres. Similar to adults, children activate a varied set of brain areas in established parietal and frontal regions when solving problems with numbers and calculations (Arsalidou et al., 2018). Importantly, children implicate extensively the insular cortex when solving calculation tasks. The insular cortex has not been previously emphasized in its role in mathematical cognition; instead it has best known for its involvement in processes of emotion and motivation (Duerden et al., 2013). Concluding, this presentation will highlight neuroscience evidence to underline potential implications for teacher’s professional development and students learning experiences, and discuss the importance of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience in evidence-based education.

Researching Vygotsky, and researching with Vygotsky in mathematics education
arrow
Abstract: Vygotsky’s approach to child development has had, and continues to have, a major impact on teaching and learning and on research in education. In this talk I will show some of that work and its significance in the field of mathematics education, whilst pointing to misunderstandings circulating in the community. Vygotsky died young, aged just 37. It is evident, given how he developed and changed his ideas as he approached death, that he had so much more to say but did not have time to write enough nor elaborate fully his theory. Thus we continue to research him and his ideas, as well as work to apply his insights in our studies of teaching and learning. I will propose some future directions for research in mathematics education building on Vygotsky’s thought.

Computer in productive learning of mathematics
arrow
The main ideas of productive learning in mathematics appeared much earlier than the appearance of a computer. In the works of Wertheimer, Hadamard, Polya, and others, the basic principles of a productive approach to teaching mathematics were formulated. At the same time, the practice of mathematics teaching did not rely on these results because of the contradiction of these principles to the current state of learning technologies. Emergence of the computers in everyday life has opened up opportunities for technological support of productive learning methods that were previously technologically inefficient. Papert demonstrates in his work the possibilities of using a computer as a tool for a student’s development, as it was developed in Vygotsky's ideas about the role of a tool in child development. However, the transition to a new structure of educational system requires a large period of time, during which a new educational culture will be formed on the basis of new technological capabilities and a new generation of teachers who perceive this culture as their own will emerge. The report will present an analysis of the possibilities, both realized and unrealized, of using a computer to support productive learning.

About the speaker
arrow
Norma Presmeg is Professor Emerita in the Mathematics Department of Illinois State University. Her research interests include a long-standing interest in creativity, going back to her thesis on Albert Einstein’s creative thought, which led to her research interest in visualization in mathematics education. Mathematical problem solving, problem posing, and the role of metaphors in mathematics education were themes that emerged from this research, along with the importance of affective issues. Concurrently, the role of culture in learning and teaching mathematics was a theme that led to interest in ethnomathematics. All of these threads are supported by a theoretical interest in semiotics, which is ongoing. She was associated in various capacities (including serving on the International Committee) with the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, starting in 1980. She served as Editor-in-Chief of Educational Studies in Mathematics from January 2009 to December 2013, and is currently the English language editor for ZDM—Mathematics Education.

The Evolution of Mathematics Education Research: Russia’s Place in this Global Movement
arrow
After outlining differences between research in pure mathematics, and mathematics education research, I highlight aspects of the founding and evolution of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education (PME), from its inception in 1976. This evolution entailed changes in theoretical paradigms, and in methodologies for research in mathematics education that were considered legitimate, ranging from an early paradigm in which only rigorous statistical research had scientific standing, through several decades of increasing acceptance of the value of qualitative research, to a more recent perception that quantitative and qualitative research methodologies have different purposes, and that each has its place—resulting in increasing use of conceptual lenses that make use of mixed methods of various types. In Russia, the Soviet psychologist V.A. Krutetskii was ahead of his time in recognizing the potential for depth in research that involved clinical interviewing of ‘capable’ mathematics students with various individual differences, in their approach to types of mathematical problems that he collected and categorized. I highlight Krutetskii’s book, first published in Russian in 1968, which was translated into English in 1976, and which formed a strong theoretical core for my own initial research on visual thinking in teaching and learning mathematics, starting in 1982 and continuing for several decades.

Cultural Development of Mathematical Ideas: Papua New Guinea Studies
arrow
Psychological studies of cognitive development are often conducted without regard for the interplay between the cognitive activities of individuals and the cultural histories of communities. In my talk, I illustrate a heuristic research framework that illuminates this interplay through studies drawn from a program of work conducted in a remote Mountain Ok community in Papua New Guinea, the Oksapmin. Traditionally, the Oksapmin like their neighboring groups use a 27-body part counting system to represent quantity. Over four periods of fieldwork that stretch 35 years, I trace the shifting form of the system and the shifting functions it serves as it is reproduced and altered in shifting collective practices of daily life. Though the focus of the talk is on the Oksapmin case, I point to ways that the framework is useful for understanding the dynamics of culture-cognition relations more generally.

Research Report – November 15
arrow
Research Report is 20-minute talk presenting original piece of research in mathematics education, followed by a 20-minute discussion.

Proposal for Research Report can have the maximum length of eight pages, accompanied by a 10-line abstract in English (and, optionally, the same abstract in another language). It should provide the theoretical framework, preliminary results, and a discussion of these results. It is important to state what is new in your research, how your study builds on past findings, and/or how it has developed new directions and pathways. Your submission might be declined if it is too similar to research already presented at one of the previous PME conferences. However, if your contribution is accepted, you can use it to apply for participation in the next International PME Conference.

Please make sure your proposal follows the general guidelines at http://www.igpme.org/index.php/annual-conference/session-types/research-report

Your submission of a Research Report should include two files:

• a file for publication – a Word document that strictly follows formatting in the submission document template;

• a file for review – a “blinded version” that is a PDF document, including the text of the proposal itself and the references, from which the author’s identity cannot be inferred.

After submission, your proposal will be double-blind peer reviewed by three PME members or Russian researchers whose areas of expertise match your research category. The conference Program Committee will make the final decision. You can read more about review process at http://www.igpme.org/index.php/annual-conference/further-information/reviewer-information-new.

You might be offered to make revisions to your proposal or recommended to present your research as Oral Communication or Poster Presentation instead of Research Report.

Your proposal may be rejected because it fails to conform to formatting guidelines, exceeds the maximum length, or does not have a correctly ‘blinded’ version. Please, see submission guidelines for details http://www.igpme.org/index.php/annual-conference/session-types/research-report and use submission checklist http://www.igpme.org/index.php/79-pme/pme-public/121-submission-checklist-rr before you submit the proposal to help you submit your proposal.
