The first calculus course in the province of Quebec (Canada) is taught in the first year of college (17-18 year-old students) before university. Statistics show that this course is the most difficult one for students at the collegial level and that it prompts many to drop out of school. The literature has highlighted the cognitive problems…

Hitt, Fernando; Saboya, Mireille; Zavala, Carlos Cortés – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2017
Part of the research community that has followed the Early Algebra paradigm is currently delimiting the differences between arithmetic thinking and algebraic thinking. This trend could prevent new research approaches to the problem of learning algebra, hiding the importance of considering an arithmetico-algebraic thinking, a new approach which…

Hitt, Fernando; Morasse, Christian – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2009
Introduction: In this document we stress the importance of developing in children a structure for advanced numerical-algebraic thinking that can provide an element of control when solving mathematical situations. We analyze pupils' conceptions that induce errors in algebra due to a lack of control in connection with their numerical thinking. We…
