摘要：The current issue of “Psychology in Russia: State of the Art” provides the specialsection Mathematical learning: New perspectives and challenges, edited by MarinaVasilyeva, associate professor at Lynch School of Education, Boston College(USA).Marina A. Kholodnaya and Emanuila G. Gelfman described the experienceof using development-focused educational texts (DET technology) as a basis forlearners’ intellectual development in studying mathematics. Yulia Solovieva, YolandaRosas-Rivera and Luis Quintanar-Rojas provided case-studies of problem solutionas a guided activity with Mexican schoolchildren. Marina Vasilyeva, ElidaLaski, Aleksandr N. Veraksa and Chen Shen traced the process of development ofchildren’s early understanding of numeric structure.Interestingly, several articles on mathematical learning are focused on students’personal traits and attitudes towards mathematics. Marina S. Egorova and YuliaD. Chertkova investigated sex differences in mathematical achievement, basing ongrades, national test, and students’ self-confidence. Chen Shen, David B. Miele andMarina Vasilyeva studied the relation between college students’ academic mindsetsand their persistence during math problem solving.
