Abstract

The Handbook of Children’s Literacy provides a unique collection of papers, offering a multi-perspective, multi-disciplinary approach to understanding alphabetic literacy. The analyses at word, text and cultural levels offer an integrative view of literacy. Basic research, theoretical advances, investigations in the classroom, analyses of literacy acquisition by readers with special needs, cross-linguistic comparisons and a historical and cultural perspective will enrich the understanding of literacy of academics and practitioners alike. This is a rare opportunity to consider literacy in breadth and depth by consulting a single collection. The contributing authors are distinguished experts in their domain of investigation, teacher educators and teachers in sixteen different countries.

Abstract

This book offers a theory for the analysis of how children learn and are taught about whole numbers. Two meanings of numbers are distinguished – the analytical meaning, defined by the number system, and the representational meaning, identified by the use of numbers as conventional signs that stand for quantities. This framework makes it possible to compare different approaches to making numbers meaningful in the classroom and contrast the outcomes of these diverse aspects of teaching. The book identifies themes and trends in empirical research on the teaching and learning of whole numbers since the launch of the major journals in mathematics education research in the 1970s. It documents a shift in focus in the teaching of arithmetic from research about teaching written algorithms to teaching arithmetic in ways that result in flexible approaches to calculation. The analysis of studies on quantitative reasoning reveals classifications of problem types that are related to different cognitive demands and rates of success in both additive and multiplicative reasoning. Three different approaches to quantitative reasoning education illustrate current thinking on teaching problem solving: teaching reasoning before arithmetic, schema-based instruction, and the use of pre-designed diagrams. The book also includes a summary of contemporary approaches to the description of the knowledge of numbers and arithmetic that teachers need to be effective teachers of these aspects of mathematics in primary school. The concluding section includes a brief summary of the major themes addressed and the challenges for the future. The new theoretical framework presented offers researchers in mathematics education novel insights into the differences between empirical studies in this domain. At the same time the description of the two meanings of numbers helps teachers distinguish between the different aims of teaching about numbers supported by diverse methods used in primary school. The framework is a valuable tool for comparing the different methods and identifying the various assumptions about teaching and learning.

Abstract

Cet ouvrage constitue une première présentation critique de l’ensemble de l’œuvre de Gérard Vergnaud, chercheur internationalement reconnu pour ses travaux en psychologie cognitive et du développement ainsi que pour son rôle en didactique des mathématiques et des sciences. Ce livre réunit à la fois des contributions de personnes ayant travaillé avec lui et de personnalités scientifiques invitées à porter un regard critique sur son œuvre. Dans deux textes originaux, Gérard Vergnaud livre ses sources d’inspiration et revient sur des sujets essentiels : la conceptualisation, la théorie de la référence, la vérité et la pertinence. Ce livre s'adressera à tous ceux (psychologues, ergonomes, didacticiens, formateurs, pédagogues) qu'intéressent les problèmes d’éducation, de formation et d’analyse du travail, ainsi qu'aux personnes attentives à l’évolution des idées dans le domaine des sciences cognitives, plus particulièrement la psychologie des apprentissages et du développement des compétences.
