Adaptive expertise is a highly sought after, but difficult to achieve, outcome of mathematics education. Many teaching methods appear to support the development of adaptive expertise only in a small proportion of students. Game-based learning environments may be useful for supporting adaptive expertise. Therefore, we carried out a…

Newman, Sharlene D.; Loughery, Erin; Ecklund, Ambur; Smothers, Marriah; Ongeri, Jefney – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
Previous studies have found that block play results in better spatial ability which may lead to greater mathematical skills. The current study examined a specific type of block play, structured block play in which a copy of a block configuration is constructed. Structured block play is a difficult cognitive task that requires an understanding of…
