A rising epistemological paradigm in the cognitive sciences—embodied cognition—has
been stimulating innovative approaches, among educational researchers, to the design and …

Embodiment perspectives from the cognitive sciences offer a rethinking of the role of
sensorimotor activity in human learning, knowing, and reasoning. Educational researchers …

As technologies that put the body at the center of mathematics learning enter formal and
informal learning spaces, we still know little about the teaching methods educators can use …

Research on mathematics education has shown that learners' actions can influence how
they think and vice versa. Much of this work has been rooted in the use of manipulatives …

Enactivism theorizes thinking as situated doing. Mathematical thinking, specifically, is
handling imaginary objects, and learning is coming to perceive objects and reflecting on this …

Whereas emerging technologies, such as touchscreen tablets, are bringing sensorimotor
interaction back into mathematics learning activities, existing educational theory is not …

We develop a theory of grounded and embodied mathematical cognition (GEMC) that draws
on action-cognition transduction for advancing understanding of how the body can support …

Blind and visually impaired mathematics students must rely on accessible materials such as
tactile diagrams to learn mathematics. However, these compensatory materials are …

Abstract Design-based research studies are conducted as iterative implementation-analysis-
modification cycles, in which emerging theoretical models and pedagogically plausible …

Inspired by Enactivist philosophy yet in dialog with it, we ask what theory of embodied
cognition might best serve in articulating implications of Enactivism for mathematics …
