Emerging Research Dimensions of Early Mathematics Education: A Review of the ICME-15 Topic Group 3.1

Mulligan, Joanne T.; Björklund, Camilla; Olfos, Raimundo; Clements, Douglas H.; Sarama, Julie

This edited volume provides and overview of the papers presented by the ICME-15 TSG3.1 Mathematics Education at the Early Childhood and Primary level at the 15th International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME-15) in Sydney, Australia, 2024. The book discusses themes, theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches of the papers. It brings together complementary views of the TSG3.1 team who support collaborative development of research programs across a range of cultural contexts. The chapters enable the readers to focus on particular conceptual domains of interest including chapters on patterning and pattern and structure; counting; number concepts, operations and number sense; multiplicative thinking and fractions; spatial concepts and reasoning and statistical reasoning. There are examples of the role of technological tools in the development of mathematical thinking. The final section focuses on teacher education and the role of community and caregivers in promoting early mathematical thinking. This book is particularly suited for mathematics education researchers and educators.
