ABSTRACT
Resumen Las pruebas internacionales de aplicación masiva permiten evaluar los aportes de los factores individuales, familiares, institucionales y nacionales al logro educativo de los estudiantes expresado en su desempeño. En este contexto, el propósito de este estudio fue proponer y evaluar un modelo de efectos centrado en el procesamiento cognitivo esencial e incidental de las actividades académicas, de acuerdo con el desempeño en las pruebas de matemáticas en estudiantes de sexto grado de 15 países (y el estado de Nuevo León de México) que participaron en el Tercer Estudio Regional Comparativo y Explicativo (TERCE). Se formuló un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales en el que se calcularon índices de procesamiento esencial (control atencional, memoria de trabajo y supervisión familiar) y procesamiento incidental (violencia percibida, uso de ocio de la computadora -videojuegos, redes sociales, reproducción de contenidos, etcétera), con base en los ítems o preguntas utilizados en el TERCE. Los índices se diseñaron y obtuvieron según el Modelo de Rasch de la Teoría de Respuesta al Ítem (TRI). El modelo planteado afecta el desempeño en la prueba en 24 puntos. La variable con mayor tamaño de efecto es el uso de ocio de computadoras en el hogar. Los resultados se discuten a la luz de las hipótesis cognitivas sobre la distribución de recursos de atención y la de entrenamiento para entender el rol de las tecnologías de la información en el proceso formativo.
Abstract International tests of massive application allow evaluating how individual, institutional, national, and family factors contribute to students' educational achievement through their performance. Consequently, education evaluation is based on the paradigm of general and specific competencies for life. One of these general competencies is the capacity to solve mathematical problems and apply logical thinking to problem-solving. In order to evaluate this general competence, standardized tests have been developed. Among these tests, the Third Regional Comparative and Explanatory Study (TERCE) in 2013 evaluated the mathematical and other areas' academic performance of children in the third and sixth grade. The TERCE Mathematics evaluation allows researchers to capture the students' academic performance in five domains: numeric, geometric, measurement, statistics, and variation, as well as their cognitive performance in objects and elements recognition and simple and complex problem-solving. In addition, to evaluate these eight dimensions, the TERCE test also asks for information regarding academic context, family environment, and teachers, among others. Despite this information, in Colombia and in general, the evaluation of the socioeconomic context over academic performance has been studied mainly considering the schools' characteristics, families' economic levels, and public expenses. Therefore, there is little evidence of the effects of psycho-pedagogical and psychological factors on academic performance. Psycho-pedagogical models emphasize the dependence of the superior processes on perceptual and attentional processes and the need for activities that demand deep processing and active involvement with information before, during, and after classes. Thus, attending simultaneously to different elements affects the development of cognitive control functions, which leads to low academic achievement and performance. Frequently, students face academic activities in different scenarios where the attentional system should divide its resources between several stimulus sources. Activities in which the attentional system focuses are "essential processing", and those not related to the main academic activity are called "incidental processing". Consequently, increasing the sources of incidental processing would decrease the attentional resources devoted to the essential processing of educational activities producing low academic performance. In this context, the study proposes and evaluates an effects model focused on essential and incidental cognitive processing of academic activities. The information was captured on the mathematics performance of sixth-grade students from 15 countries (and the state of Nuevo León de México) participating in the Third Regional Comparative and Explanatory Study (TERCE). A Structural Equations model was formulated using indices of Essential Processing (Attentional Control, Working Memory, and Family Supervision) and Incidental Processing (Perceived Violence, Leisure use of the computer, and incidental processing) based on the items or questions used in the TERCE. The indices were designed based on the Item Response Theory (IRT) model. Findings show that the proposed model affects the performance in the test by 24 points. Higher scores in essential processing produce higher scores in the mathematics component of the TERCE test. Family supervision of academic activity is the single element with the highest impact on academic performance (3.020); on the other hand, attentional control (7.48) and working memory (4.295) also impact academic performance positively. Regarding the incidental processing variables, lower levels of perceived violence (1.680), less noise and distractor in class (2.130), and higher use of computers at home for leisure activities (5.851) have the most significant impacts on academic performance. The results are discussed considering the cognitive hypotheses on the distribution of attention resources and the training hypothesis to understand information technologies' role in the academic processes. Suggestions for further research focus on the inclusion of items with a higher theoretical background that allows researchers to evaluate the impact of essential and incidental processing on academic performance using items specially designed with that goal to get more conclusive and robust results.
ABSTRACT
The aim of the study was to demonstrate a relationship between the math anxiety (MA) of parents and teachers and the MA of children and the effects on the children's performance in arithmetic. 286 children aged between 7 and 10 years and their parents and mathematics teachers participated in the study. The instruments used were: Math Anxiety Questionnaire; School Performance Test - Arithmetic subtest; Mathematical Anxiety Scale; and Raven's Colored Progressive Matrices. The results showed that advanced age of the teacher was a predictor of high levels of MA, which influenced the children's performance in arithmetic. Low parental education was associated with high MA, however, there were no correlations between parents' and children's MA. A significant difference was found between the MA mean scores for girls and boys, with the girls presenting higher levels of MA. (AU)
O objetivo do estudo foi evidenciar a relação entre a ansiedade matemática (AM) dos pais e dos professores com a AM das crianças e o desempenho destas em aritmética. Participaram do estudo 286 crianças com idade entre 7 e 10 anos e seus respectivos pais e professores de matemática. Os instrumentos utilizados foram: Questionário de Ansiedade Matemática, Teste de Desempenho Escolar - Subteste de Aritmética, Escala de Ansiedade Matemática e Matrizes Progressivas Coloridas de Raven. Os resultados mostraram que a idade avançada dos professores é um fator preditor para altos níveis de AM, o que influencia no desempenho das crianças em aritmética. A baixa escolaridade dos pais está associada a alta AM, porém não foram encontradas correlações significativas entre AM de pais e crianças. Também foi encontrada uma diferença significativa entre as médias de AM para o sexo feminino e masculino, evidenciando que meninas possuem maiores níveis de AM. (AU)

Introducción: La relación entre funciones ejecutivas y habilidades matemáticas ha sido ampliamente estudiada. Sin embargo, no existe consenso respecto de la contribución específica de la memoria de trabajo y la planificación en el desarrollo de competencias matemáticas tempranas. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la capacidad predictiva de estos dos dominios ejecutivos sobre las competencias matemáticas de preescolares. Método: Se implementó un diseño no experimental ex post facto, con una muestra de 104 niños/as chilenos/as. La evaluación de sus funciones ejecutivas se realizó con la tarea "inversión de números" de la Batería IV Woodcock-Muñoz para evaluar la memoria de trabajo verbal, la subprueba "Torpo, el topo torpe" del Test de Evaluación Neuropsicológica Infantil (TENI) para evaluar la memoria de trabajo visoespacial y el Test de Laberintos de Porteus para evaluar la planificación. Con el fin de evaluar las habilidades matemáticas se utilizó el Test de Evaluación Matemática Temprana Utrecht (TEMT-U), versión chilena. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos, correlaciones y modelos de regresión múltiple. Resultados: La memoria de trabajo verbal seguida por la memoria de trabajo visoespacial y la planificación fueron los mejores predictores de las competencias matemáticas de los/as niños/as. Conclusiones: Estos resultados sugieren que estas funciones ejecutivas desempeñan un papel clave en el aprendizaje de las matemáticas y aportan información específica a las/os educadoras/es para que puedan planificar sus estrategias de enseñanza en función de las demandas cognitivas que requiere cada habilidad matemática, lo que puede ser una vía potencial para promover mejores logros de aprendizaje en esta importante disciplina.
Introduction: The relationship between executive functions and mathematical skills has been extensively studied. However, there is no consensus regarding the specific contribution of working memory and planning in the development of early mathematical skills. The aim of this study was to determine the predictive capacity of these two executive domains on preschoolers' mathematical skills. Method: A non-experimental ex post facto design was implemented with a sample of 104 Chilean children. The evaluation of their executive functions was performed with the "number inversion" task of the Woodcock-Muñoz IV Battery to assess verbal working memory, the "Clumsy Mole the Clumsy Mole" subtest of the TENI Child Neuropsychological Evaluation Test to assess visuospatial working memory, and the Porteus Maze Test to assess planning. To assess mathematical skills, the Test de Evaluación Matemática Temprana Utretch TEMT-U, Chilean version, was used. Descriptive analyses, correlations and multiple regression models were performed. Results: Verbal working memory followed by visuospatial working memory and planning were the best predictors of children's mathematical skills. Conclusions: These results suggest that these executive functions play a key role in mathematics learning and provide specific information to educators so that they can plan their teaching strategies according to the cognitive demands required by each mathematical skill, which may be a potential way to promote better learning achievements in this important discipline.

ABSTRACT
Resumen Introducción: el estudio analizó (a) las diferencias entre madres y padres en sus actividades matemáticas en el hogar y en otros factores del ambiente matemático (actitudes, ansiedad, creencias y expectativas matemáticas) y (b) la asociación entre los factores del ambiente matemático y las actividades matemáticas en el hogar. Método: participaron 266 familias de niños y niñas chilenos de primer a tercer grado de primaria (edad promedio = 93.35 meses, DE = 11.45 meses). Ambos padres contestaron un cuestionario sobre matemáticas en el hogar. Resultados: las madres reportaron realizar actividades matemáticas con mayor frecuencia que los padres. Análisis de ecuaciones estructurales mostraron que las actividades matemáticas realizadas por los padres se relacionaron con sus creencias, actitudes y expectativas matemáticas; mientras que las de las madres se relacionaron con sus creencias, actitudes y género de los niños. Conclusiones: los hallazgos aportan a la comprensión del ambiente matemático en el hogar.
Abstract Introduction: The study analyzes (a) the differences between mothers and fathers in their home math activities and home math environment factors (math attitudes, anxiety, beliefs, and expectations) and (b) the associations among the home math environment factors and home math activities of Chilean families. Method: Participants were 266 families of boys and girls attending grades 1-3 (mean age = 93.35 months, DS = 11.45 months). Both parents of each child independently answered a home math questionnaire. Results: Mothers reported doing more math activities with their children than fathers. The structural equation model analyses showed that the frequency with which fathers engage in home math activities was related to their math beliefs, attitudes, and expectations, whereas maternal home math activities were related to their beliefs, attitudes, and the gender of the child. Conclusions: The findings contribute to the understanding of the home math environment.
ABSTRACT
Resumen La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo identificar y describir los niveles de desarrollo de la noción de "mitad" en un grupo de niños de dos comunidades indígenas pertenecientes al pueblo shipibo-konibo de la región Ucayali, en la Amazonía del Perú. Se trabajó con 14 estudiantes de edades entre 7 y 13 años, seis de ellos pertenecientes a la comunidad de Bethel y ocho a la comunidad de Bena Jema. Todos fueron evaluados utilizando el método clínico-crítico de Jean Piaget. Los estudiantes de la comunidad de Bethel fueron evaluados con una tarea centrada en cantidades discretas y los de la comunidad de Bena Jema, con la misma tarea y con otra centrada en cantidades continuas. Los desempeños de los participantes evidenciaron cuatro niveles de desarrollo en cada una de las tareas. Sus respuestas fueron consistentes con otras investigaciones que evaluaron la misma noción en contextos occidentales. Los resultados apoyan la universalidad en la construcción de la noción de "mitad", pero evidencian un retraso en la adquisición de los niveles por parte de los niños evaluados, si se toma como referencia los currículos nacionales. Se discuten los hallazgos resaltando la universalidad de las estructuras lógico-matemáticas y la necesidad de repensar el momento y la forma en que la noción de "mitad" aparece en el currículo.
Abstract This research aims to identify and describe developmental levels of the notion of "half" in a group of children from two Shipibo-Konibo native communities of the Ucayali region, in the Peruvian Amazon rainforest. Fourteen students aged between 7 and 16 participated, six from Bethel community and eight from Bena Jema community. The community of Bethel is located approximately 6 hours by river from the city of Pucallpa, while Bena Jema is located within Pucallpa's boundaries, in the Yarinacocha district. All participants were assessed using Jean Piaget's clinical-critical method, with two tasks. In the first task, focusing on discrete quantities: different sets of cards with the picture of a fish were presented sequentially, some with an even number of units and some with an odd number. Participants were asked to choose and present back half of each set. In the second task, focusing on continuous quantities: participants were asked to choose and present half of a single raw spaghetti, which they needed to break with their hands. If the resulting pieces were unequal, they were asked to break them again and redistribute the results. Students from Bena Jema community were assessed with both tasks, while students from Bethel community were assessed only with the discrete quantities task. The results showed four developmental levels in the discrete quantities task. In the first level, participants took any one of two parts of the set to be "half", without checking if they were equal or whether putting them back together reconstituted the original whole. In the second level, participants took any one of two equal parts to be "half", but were inconsistent and accepted the possibility of the parts being unequal. In the third level, participants only took any one of two equal parts to be "half" but had difficulties splitting odd-numbered sets, including sets with fewer elements than the even-numbered ones they had previously split correctly. In the fourth level, the task was solved successfully with both even-numbered and odd-numbered sets. For the continuous quantities task, three levels were found. In the first level, any one of two raw spaghetti pieces was taken to be "half", without checking their evenness. In the second level, participants took any two equal pieces of the raw spaghetti to be "half", but without checking whether putting them back together reconstituted the original whole, with no extra parts remaining. In the third level, participants took any one of two equal pieces to be "half", checking whether putting them back together reconstituted the original whole. These results are consistent with reports from previous research assessing the notion of "half" in Western contexts. Results support universality in the development of the notion of "half", but show a delay in the participants' level of acquisition, taking Peru's national curriculum as reference. This study is a contribution to the understanding of the development of the notion of "half" in indigenous children living in Amazonian native communities, and shows the relevance of the Piagetian clinical-critical interview in these sociocultural contexts. The implications of these findings are discussed in relation to the universality of logical-mathematical knowledge, as well as the need to rethink the timing and manner in which the notion of "half" appears in the curriculum.

Introduction: Phonological awareness is a very important skill for reading, writing and math in many school years. Its investigation and evaluation has been carried out in different contexts with typical or atypical populations to understand how it develops and consequently contribute to research on academic performance. Objective: The aim of this paper is to study the influence of phonological awareness on academic performance in Brazilian studies and to present the main standardized instruments used in the assessment to this skill. Methods: Articles from the last five years were searched in LILACS and SciELO databases using descriptors in English: "phonological awareness" and "reading" or "writing" or "mathematics" or "academic performance" or "academic ability", as well as descriptors in Portuguese using the same expressions. Open access studies carried out in Brazil, published in Portuguese, English or Spanish, which used a standardized instrument and presented the descriptors mentioned in the title or abstract, were selected. Results: Of the 18 articles analyzed, 17 concluded that phonological awareness was important for reading, writing and mathematics, with reading and writing being the most investigated skills. The instruments used assess the main components of phonological awareness and were developed by Brazilian authors. Conclusion: The findings show that phonological awareness is a very important skill for academic performance in different grades. It reinforces the need for monitoring, assessment, and early intervention with skill in typical and atypical children.

O Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção/Hiperatividade (TDAH) é um transtorno que frequentemente acarreta prejuízos ao desempenho acadêmico. O presente estudo teve como objetivo verificar a extensão desses prejuízos no desempenho aritmético, comparando estudantes com sintomas de TDAH com o de seus pares sem TDAH. O desempenho aritmético de 93 estudantes com sintomas de TDAH e 447 estudantes sem TDAH, entre 7 e 16 anos, de escolas públicas de Porto Alegre (3º a 9º ano), foi avaliado pelo Subteste de Aritmética do TDE. Estudantes com sintomas de TDAH apresentaram escores mais baixos e uma quantidade maior de erros de procedimento do que os estudantes sem o transtorno. Os resultados sugerem que sintomas frequentes de TDAH têm relação com maior ocorrência de erros no desempenho em aritmética dos estudantes avaliados neste estudo. (AU)
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a highly prevalent disorder that often impairs academic performance. The present study aimed to verify the extent of these impairments in arithmetic performance by comparing the performance of students with and without ADHD symptoms. The arithmetic performance of 93 students with ADHD symptoms and 447 students without ADHD was evaluated by the Arithmetical Subtest of the School Performance Test. Participants were attending public elementary schools in the municipality of Porto Alegre (3rd to 9th grades) and their age range was 7 to 16 years old. Those with ADHD symptoms had lower scores and a higher number of procedural errors than those without ADHD. The results suggest that frequent symptoms of ADHD are related to a higher frequency of errors in the arithmetic performance of the students assessed in this study. (AU)

Resumen El presente estudio tuvo como objetivos identificar las estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación utilizadas por estudiantes universitarios en las asignaturas de matemáticas, así como examinar las relaciones entre sus creencias motivacionales y las estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación utilizadas, y explorar la relación entre las estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación y su percepción sobre aspectos del ambiente de clase. Para esto, se utilizó una muestra de 224 estudiantes universitarios, quienes completaron dos instrumentos de autoinforme para medir sus creencias motivacionales y sus estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación. Los resultados de un ANOVA de medidas repetidas revelaron que los estudiantes utilizaron en diferente grado las estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación (F(3.607, 804.343) = 96.188, p = .000, np 1 = 0.301); que las creencias motivacionales de orientación a metas de desempeño y orientación al aprendizaje-valor explicaron el 30 % de la varianza de la estrategia de regulación de metas de desempeño (F(2, 221) = 48.193, p = 0.000), así como el 29 % de la varianza de la regulación de valor de la tarea (F(2, 221) = 45.343, p = 0.000); y que hay relaciones plausibles entre las estrategias de autorregulación de la motivación utilizadas por los estudiantes y los aspectos del ambiente de clase como el nivel de promoción del aprendizaje significativo, el tipo de metas que se promueven en clase y el apoyo ofrecido por el profesor. El presente estudio hace una contribución novedosa al proporcionar la perspectiva del alumno sobre el ambiente de clase y su relación con las estrategias elegidas por los estudiantes.
Abstract This study aimed to identify the motivational self-regulatory strategies used by college students in mathematics courses as well as to examine the relationships between their motivational beliefs and the said motivational self-regulatory strategies. Also, to explore the relationship between such strategies and the students' perception of certain aspects of the classroom environment. To this end, 224 college students completed two self-report instruments to measure their motivational beliefs and self-regulatory motivation strategies. Results from a repeated-measures ANOVA revealed that students used self-regulatory motivation strategies to varying degrees (F (3.607, 804.343) = 96.188, p = .000, p2 = 0. 301); that the motivational beliefs of performance goal orientation and learning value orientation explained 30% of the variance of the performance goal regulation strategy (F (2, 221) = 48,193, p = 0.000), as well as 29% of the variance of the task value regulation (F (2, 221) = 45,343, p = 0.000). Last, the study identifies plausible relationships between the self-regulatory motivational strategies used by students and aspects of the classroom environment such as the level of promotion of meaningful learning, the type of goals promoted in class, and the support offered by the teacher. This study makes a novel contribution by providing the student's perspective on the classroom environment, and its relationship with strategies chosen by the students.
ABSTRACT
Avaliações nacionais e internacionais demonstram que estudantes brasileiros do ensino fundamental têm apre-sentado dificuldades no aprendizado do comportamento de resolver problemas aritméticos. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar, a partir de um delineamento de linha de base múltipla (LBM) entre participantes, o efeito da formação de classes de equivalência entre diferentes formas de apresentação de problemas envolvendo di-ferentes posições da incógnita e estruturas semânticas dos problemas escritos sobre o desempenho na resolução de problemas de adição e subtração. Participaram seis estudantes entre o quarto e o quinto ano do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública, sendo que cinco finalizaram o estudo. Todos apresentaram comportamen-tos de leitura e escrita suficientes para a participação na pesquisa, dificuldades na resolução de problemas aditivos e nenhum indício de ansiedade matemática ou problemas significativos em comportamentos de estudo nesta disciplina. P1, P2 e P3 foram expostos ao treino de discriminações condicionais a problemas de adição, enquanto P4 e P5 a problemas de subtração. Os testes de desempenho, que compuseram pré-testes e pós-tes-tes, envolviam problemas de adição e subtração. Após a formação das classes de equivalência, verificou-se que P1, P2 e P3 apresentaram ganhos médios de desem-penho de 22,34% (DP = 14.62), e P4 e P5 de 19,84% (DP = 11.22). Esses resultados sugerem a eficácia do procedimento. Recomenda-se que estudos futuros usem o delineamento de LBM com sondas para reduzir repetições dos testes, elaborem estratégias para ampliar engajamento dos participantes e investiguem como adaptar este procedimento para contextos aplicados

Participaron seis estudiantes entre cuarto y quinto año de primaria de una escuela pública, y cinco completaron el estudio. Todos mostraron habilidades suficientes de lectura y escritura para participar de la investigación, dificultades para resolver problemas aditivos y ninguna evidencia de ansiedad matemática o problemas significativos de estudio en esta disciplina. P1, P2 y P3 fueron expuestos al entrenamiento de discriminación condicional a problemas de suma, mientras que P4 y P5, a problemas de resta. Las pruebas de rendimiento, que incluían pretests y postests, consistieron en problemas de suma y resta. Después de la formación de clases de equivalencia, P1, P2 y P3 presentaron ganancias promedio de desempeño de 22.34% (DE = 14.62), y P4 y P5 de 19.84% (DE = 11.22). Estos resultados sugieren la efectividad del procedimiento. Se recomienda que estudios futuros utilicen el diseño de LBM con sondeo para reducir las repeticiones de pruebas, diseñar estrategias para aumentar el interés de los participantes e investigar cómo adaptar este procedimiento a los contextos aplicados
National and international assessments demonstrate that Brazilian elementary school students have difficulties learning the behavior of solving arithmetic problems. This study aimed to investigate, using a multiple-baseline design (MBL) for participants, the effect of the formation of equivalence classes between different forms of pro- blem presentation involving different positions of the unknown element and different semantic structures of the written problems on the performance in solving addi-tion and subtraction problems. Six students in the fourth or fifth year of a public elementary school participated, and five completed the study. They all showed sufficient reading and writing behavior for participating in the re-search, difficulties in solving additive problems, and no evidence of math anxiety or significant problems in study behaviors in this discipline. P1, P2, and P3 were exposed to the conditional discrimination training to addition problems, while P4 and P5 to subtraction problems. The performance tests, which were composed of pre-tests and post-tests, involved problems of addition and subtraction. After the formation of equivalence classes, we found that P1, P2, and P3 presented average performance gains of 22.34% (SD = 14.62), and P4 and P5 of 19.84% (SD = 11.22). These results suggest the effectiveness of the pro-cedure. We recommend that future studies use the MBL design with probes to reduce test repetitions, devise strategies to increase participant engagement, and inves-tigate how to adapt this procedure to applied contexts

Resumen Las dificultades de aprendizaje en Matemáticas (DAM) han sido estudiadas por parte de los investigadores en los últimos años. La literatura sobre su clasificación y su identificación en niños ha sido relevante; sin embargo, es poca la bibliografía actual acerca de cómo superar dichas dificultades en niños. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo la validación de un protocolo para mejorar habilidades en el campo de las matemáticas. La muestra se componía de 59 niños con esta característica, además del bajo rendimiento en dicha área. Los participantes tenían entre 7 y 10 años y estaban cursando entre segundo y cuarto año de primaria. El diseño es cuasiexperimental con medidas pretest-postest y grupo control en lista de espera. El programa constó de cinco semanas, con una sesión semanal de forma grupal con una duración de 50 minutos aproximadamente. Los instrumentos de evaluación fueron: TEDI-MATH para la identificación de las DAM y tres subpruebas de la WISC-IV, dígitos, conceptos y claves. Los resultados de la investigación arrojaron diferencias significativas entre el grupo control y experimental para todas las pruebas de la TEDI-MATH y para la subprueba de conceptos en WISC-IV. Los resultados son coherentes con otras investigaciones relacionadas con la comorbilidad entre los campos del lenguaje y las matemáticas. Se concluye que, al entrenar aspectos relacionados con la adquisición del lenguaje mejora la comprensión y el manejo de las competencias en matemáticas en los niños.
Abstract Learning Disabilities Mathematical LDM, have been the subject of study since the decade of the 70`s, advances in this field have allowed a correct identification and classification through the design of various instruments for this objective. The number of investigations that address intervention protocols to improve this type of difficulties in children is even more limited. On this way, comorbidities have also been found different researches with the Language Learning Disabilities LLD, and as well as their relationship with the neurological development of children. It is estimated that in countries like Germany, USA, and Spain, the percentage of children with LDM is between 3% and 8%. In particular, in Colombia at the moment, there is very little research that allows identifying these difficulties in children, as well as very little research on the different types of intervention to improve these difficulties in Math. In General, there are little current literature on how to overcome such difficulties in children. An intervention based on the perspective of dynamic assessment would be useful for children who have these difficulties. The dynamic assessment implies two important concepts: activity and modifiability. The tester and the inquired assume an active role, where the tester intervenes and modifies the interaction with the inquired with the purpose of successfully inducing learning. The inquired is directed and reinforced to assume an active role in searching and organizing information. The product of the assessment is modifiability or change in cognitive functioning. This study presents the validation of a protocol based on dynamic assessment to improve skills in the field of mathematics. The sample was 59 Colombian children from public schools in the city of Bogotá. Participants were between 7 to 10 years old and from second to fourth grade. They had Mathematics Learning Difficulties in evaluated with TEDI-MATH on short version. They were distributed in 28 boys and 31 girls with this characteristic. And children who were undergoing psychological, medicated and/or clinical treatment processes were excluded. The design used was quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest measures and control group on the waiting list. The program considered five weeks, with one weekly session of group with a duration of approximately 50 minutes. The evaluation instruments were: TEDI-MATH which was used for the identification of the MLD; 3 sub tests of the WISC-IV, digits, concepts and keys. And PAMATH-C protocol was used for the intervention with children with the aforementioned difficulties. The results of the investigation showed significant differences between the control and experimental group for all the TEDI-MATH tests and for the subtest of concepts in WISC-IV. The results are consistent with other research related to comorbidity between the fields of language and mathematics. The results showed that like other research based interventions with Learning Potential training programs are effective in improving the different metacognitive abilities among the participants. and has a significant effect on the decrease in Mathematical Learning Disabilities. This research leaves projections for an application to a larger population in Colombia and in South America of the TEDYMATH test on short version, since good discrimination was observed for children with LDM. The application of the PAMATH-C protocol in other types of rural and urban population throughout the territories will improve the identification of children with difficulties. In addition, the contribution for the design of new tests based on dynamic evaluation and its form of application to improve other types of difficulties in both children and adults. Therefore, an immense methodological field to develop future protocols based on the Learning Potential. It is concluded that when training aspects related to language acquisition, it improves the understanding and management of mathematics in children.

Este trabajo presenta una reflexión actualizada de métodos y estrategias eficaces para el aprendizaje del cálculo, la escritura y lectura en sujetos con discapacidad intelectual leve. Conforme con el análisis de las investigaciones abordadas, se puede concluir que, si bien los propósitos de la atención pedagógica a los sujetos con déficit intelectual vienen enmarcados bajo los principios de la educación inclusiva, se evidencia una gran diferencia entre las intenciones de la educación inclusiva y la realidad de las instituciones educativas. Así, los niños con discapacidad intelectual leve, pese a ser integrados en el aula regular, no logran recibir la atención educativa requerida para fortalecer los aprendizajes pedagógicos de lectoescritura y cálculo; situación que se relaciona con el desconocimiento, por parte de los docentes, de las estrategias pedagógicas para abordar las particularidades educativas de esta población. El resultado del análisis, evidencia la existencia de diversas técnicas; indica, al mismo tiempo, que no existe un método específico para el aprendizaje de habilidades académicas en los sujetos con deficiencias intelectuales leves, sugiere identificar el interés y la necesidad de los estudiantes para así establecer flexibilizaciones en las planeaciones pedagógicas y metodológicas del currículo que favorezcan el proceso de aprendizaje
This work presents an updated reflection of effective methods and strategies for learning calculation, writing and reading in subjects with mild intellectual disabilities. According to the analysis of the analyzed researches we can concluded that, although the purposes of pedagogical attention to subjects with intellectual deficits are framed under the principles of inclusive education, there is evidence of a great difference between the intentions of inclusive education and the reality of educational institutions. Thus, children with mild intellectual disabilities, despite being integrated into the regular classroom, do not manage to receive the educational attention required to strengthen the pedagogical learning of literacy and numeracy. A situation that is related to the ignorance, from teachers, of the pedagogical strategies to address the educational particularities of this population. The result of the analysis shows the existence of various techniques, indicates, at the same time, that there is no specific method for learning academic skills in subjects with mild intellectual deficiencies, we suggest identifying the interest and need of students in order to do so, establishing flexibilities in the pedagogical and methodological planning of the curriculum that favor the learning process.Keywords: Learning; Intellectual deficit; Intellectual disability; Inclusive education; Teaching; Reading/writing; Mathematics; Pedagogy.

Neste trabalho, o consenso em defesa da educação inclusiva é retomado, enfatizando: a relação entre a educação inclusiva, as práticas escolares e a pesquisa; o conceito de diversidade; a importância das vozes dos estudantes sobre os processos de inclusão/exclusão. Descreve-se um estudo focado nas vozes de dois pares de alunos do 5º ano do Ensino Fundamental, com idades entre 12 e 14 anos, sendo um par com diagnóstico de paralisia cerebral e um sem esse diagnóstico. Os estudantes participaram de entrevista focada em sua história escolar, nas concepções em relação à escola, bom aluno, competências e dificuldades escolares e a respeito de suas relações sociais. As transcrições foram analisadas, tendo a proposição como unidade de análise. Ficaram demonstradas, independentemente do diagnóstico, concepções negativas em relação ao próprio desempenho escolar em matemática e à dificuldade na compreensão do significado dos números, das operações e do sistema de numeração decimal. Os resultados são discutidos defendendo a prática psicopedagógica como procedimento para o desenvolvimento das competências conceituais.
The consensus in inclusive education publications is pointed, with emphases at: the relationship between inclusive education, school practices and research; the concept of diversity; the importance of students' voices on the processes of inclusion/exclusion. It is described a study which focus was the voices of two pairs of students in the 5th grade (elementary school) aged 12 and 14 years, both pointed with learning difficulties and a pair diagnosed with cerebral palsy and mental deficiency. They were interviewed about theirs school history, school and good student conceptions, students' skills and learning difficulties, social relationships. Independent of diagnosis is demonstrated the negative conceptions on their own performance in learning school mathematics and their difficulty in understanding the meaning of numbers, operations and the decimal numbers system. The results are discussed while supporting the psychopedagogical practice as a procedure for the development of conceptual skills.

ABSTRACT
En "El atolondradicho" Lacan insiste en su propósito de desbrozar el estatuto del discurso del psicoanalista. En ese desbroce debería fundarse el lazo social de trabajo que dará cuerpo a la nueva institución analítica por él propuesta, la Escuela. Destaca además que es lazo social sería "limpio de toda necesidad de grupo". Hay implícita en estas afirmaciones lacanianas toda una concepción del agrupamiento y formación de los psicoanalistas. Estas páginas quieren aportar a la elucidación de dicha concepción haciendo foco en el lugar central que en ésta tienen las matemáticas. Se propone que allí se da un atravesamiento de inscripciones políticas, institucionales, epistémicas y clínicas
In "L' Étourdit" Lacan insists on his intention of clearing up the status of the psychoanalyst´s discourse. In this clearing, the social bond that will give shape to the new analytical institution proposed by him, the School, should be founded. He also emphasizes that this social bond would be "clean of all group needness". Implicit in these Lacanian statements is a whole conception of the grouping and formation of psychoanalysts. These pages want to contribute to the elucidation of this conception by focusing on the central place that mathematics has in it. The aim is to give an account of how the mathematical formalization crosses, at the same time, the School´s political-institutional proposal and the conceptualization of the clinical experience. It is proposed that there is a crossing of political, institutional, epistemic and clinical inscriptions

ABSTRACT
Diante da importância das funções executivas para o desempenho escolar, investigou-se a associação entre notas na disciplina de matemática e desempenho em funções executivas, conforme relato de pais e professores de alunos do 5º ano, nos instrumentos BRIEF e IFERA-I. Participaram do estudo pais/responsáveis e professores de 47 crianças, com idade entre 10 e 11 anos, de uma escola particular do estado de São Paulo. Houve correlação significativa entre notas na disciplina de matemática e avaliações de pais e professores no BRIEF e IFERA-I, sendo que o BRIEF apresentou maiores correlações que o IFERA-I. Respostas dos professores apresentaram correlações mais altas com desempenho matemático do que as dos pais em todas as escalas, exceto na organização de materiais do BRIEF, e os pais relataram mais dificuldades do que os professores. Os resultados corroboram a associação entre funções executivas e matemática, bem como a importância de múltiplos informantes na avaliação infantil. (AU)
Considering the importance of executive functions for school performance, the present study investigated the association between grades in Mathematics and performance in executive functions, as reported by parents and teachers of 5th grade students, using the BRIEF and IFERA-I instruments. Participants were parents/guardians and teachers of 47 children, aged between 10 and 11 years, from a private school in the state of São Paulo. There was significant correlation between grades in Mathematics and the parents' and teachers' assessments in the BRIEF and IFERA-I, with the BRIEF presenting higher correlations than the IFERA-I. The teachers' responses showed higher negative correlations with mathematical achievement than those of the parents in all subscales, except in the organization of materials (BRIEF), and the parents reported more difficulties than the teachers. The results corroborate the association between executive functions and Mathematics, as well as the importance of multiple informants in child assessments. (AU)
Ante la importancia de las funciones ejecutivas para el rendimiento escolar, el presente estudio investigó la asociación entre las notas en matemáticas y el rendimiento en funciones ejecutivas a través de los instrumentos BRIEF e IFERA-I, tomando como indicativo los informes de padres y profesores de alumnos del 5º año. Participaron del estudio padres/tutores y profesores de 47 niños, con edades comprendidas entre 10 y 11 años, de una escuela privada de la provincia de São Paulo. Los resultados mostraron que existe correlación negativa significativa entre las notas en la asignatura y las evaluaciones de padres y profesores en el BRIEF e IFERA-I, siendo que el BRIEF presentó mayores correlaciones que el IFERA-I. Las respuestas de los profesores obtuvieron correlaciones más altas con el rendimiento matemático que las de los padres en todas las escalas, excepto en la organización de materiales (BRIEF), o sea, los padres parecen haber sido más rigurosos en la evaluación del comportamiento de sus hijos.

RESUMEN: Las personas Sordas usuarias de la Lengua de Signos Española (LSE) en su etapa académica precisan del acompañamiento de un Intérprete de LSE que les facilite el acceso al currículum. En este sentido, y para facilitar la labor de los profesionales de la interpretación, los materiales lexicográficos de la LSE cobran una especial importancia. La calidad de los diccionarios de una lengua repercute en la calidad de las interpretaciones y traducciones. El objetivo de esta investigación es determinar si los diccionarios de la LSE recogen unidades léxicas (Signos) de calidad para los conceptos o nombres de los diferentes tipos de números. Para ello, se ha buscado, analizado y, en caso de ser necesario, creado Signos que reúnen las características básicas de las lenguas de modalidad viso-gestual. Los resultados de la investigación muestran, por un lado, que los materiales lexicográficos de la LSE presentan carencias terminológicas y, por otro lado, que en aquellos casos en los que se encuentra una opción de Signo para la palabra buscada es habitual encontrarnos con Signos que no transmiten el significado del concepto en cuestión. A pesar de ello, la LSE, al igual que todas las lenguas signadas, presenta recursos y métodos para crear nuevos Signos demostrando que es una lengua rica, capaz de transmitir cualquier tipo de información.
ABSTRACT: Deaf people who use Spanish Sign Language (LSE) in their academic stage need the support of an LSE Interpreter who facilitates their access to the curricular content. In this sense, in order to facilitate the work of professional interpreters, lexicographic materials of the LSE acquire a special importance. The quality of the dictionaries of a language has repercussions on the quality of interpretations and translations. The objective of this research is to determine if the LSE dictionaries collect lexical units (Signs) of quality for the concepts or names of the different types of numbers. To achieve that, we have searched, analyzed and, if necessary, created Signs that meet the basic characteristics of the languages of visual-gestural modality. On the one hand, the results of our investigation allow us to assure that the lexicographical materials of the LSE present terminological deficiencies; on the other hand, in those cases where a Sign option is found for the searched word, it is common to find Signs that do not convey the meaning of the concept in question. In spite of this, LSE, like all Sign Languages, presents resources and methods to create new Signs, showing that it is a rich language, capable of transmitting any type of information.
