Star, Jon R.; Pollack, Courtney – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2015
The topic of inhibition in mathematics education is both well timed and important. In this commentary, we reflect on the role of inhibition in mathematics learning through four themes that relate to how inhibition is defined, measured, developed, and applied. First, we consider different characterizations of inhibition and how they may shape the…
