چکیده
'Modern mathematics education relies heavily upon the.cognitive 4 theories of Jean Piaget and Jerome Bruner. These theories"provide the bais for explanations of levels of development as well as direction for instructional procedures. Research relayed to cognitive abilites in learning disabled adolescents, specificallyin mathematics, are virtually,nonexistent. The preSent investigation sought to deter.. mine the level of formal reasoning in mathematics of LD adolescents. The results of the study suggest that ID junior high school students are_ functioning at the concrete operations stage of Piaget's develop. mental sequence. The need for mathematics interventions which use enactive and iconic,.as well as verbal/symbolic,representatiom is stressed.

متن کاملLogical Theories for Agent Introspection
Thomas Bolander: Logical Theories for Introspective Agents Artificial intelligence systems (agents) generally have models of the environments they inhabit which they use for representing facts, for reasoning about these facts and for planning actions. Much intelligent behaviour seems to involve an ability to model not only one’s external environment but also oneself and one’s own reasoning. We ...
