Produktbeschreibung

Developmental Dyscalculia: From Brain Mechanisms to Educational Applications presents research with a domain-general approach. It examines issues in the fields of numerical and non-numerical cognitive domains, neuro- mechanisms, and pedagogic issues to pave the way to a bridge between lab research, daily life, and curriculum applications, with a goal of finding a pathway to early diagnosis and interventions of developmental dyscalculia. It will be of interest to researchers with interests in cognitive neuroscience and education, to contribute fruitful discussions between education and neuro-cognition.¿ - Presents an¿interdisciplinary approach to developmental dyscalculia - Highlights heterogeneity and variability in developmental dyscalculiä - Bridges research, daily life, and applications in curriculum - Includes content on early diagnosis and interventions
