Rossi, Paul S. – PRIMUS, 2008
The basic rules of elementary algebra can often appear beyond the grasp of many students. Even though most subjects, including calculus, prove to be more difficult, it is the simple rules of algebra that continue to be the "thorn in the side" of many mathematics students. In this paper we present a result intended to help students achieve a…

Selden, John; Selden, Annie – Online Submission, 2004
In this paper, we will discuss the way various features of consciousness interact with each other and with cognition, specifically, the cognition of mathematical reasoning and problem solving. Thus we are interested in how consciousness and cognition "work," in a somewhat mechanistic way, rather than in larger philosophical questions about…
