Fangli Xia; Mitchell J. Nathan; Kelsey E. Schenck; Michael I. Swart – Cognitive Science, 2025
Task-relevant actions can facilitate mathematical thinking, even for complex topics, such as mathematical proof. We investigated whether such cognitive benefits also occur for action predictions. The action-cognition transduction (ACT) model posits a reciprocal relationship between movements and reasoning. Movements--imagined as well as real ones…

Paul Mayer; Rich Baraniuk – ACM Transactions on Computing Education, 2025
It is argued that logic, and in particular mathematical logic, should play a key role in the undergraduate curriculum for students in the computing fields, which include electrical engineering (EE), computer engineering (CE), and computer science (CS). This is based on (1) the history of the field of computing and its close ties with logic, (2)…

Michelle Lo; Teresa K. Dunleavy – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
The mathematics classroom is particularly vulnerable to these judgments of perfectionism, with endless evidence of students and teachers believing that mathematics is based on an ultimate truth or a single, objective, unique answer. School mathematics still favors students' participation in rote procedures, memorization, and using only a few…
