I enjoyed my trip to Nottingham a great deal. The main reason for going was to present a seminar on my thoughts about mathematics learning. I have been thinking about the difficulties inherent in asking and answering some questions about learning, given the dichotomy of cognitivist and socioculturalist theory. The seminar represents an early attempt to develop a theoretical framework that allows the asking and answering of some more interesting questions than can be asked from either the cognitivist or the socioculturalist perspective. A video of the seminar is available here: mms://resources.lsri.nottingham.ac.uk/Seminar_Archive/Tim_Jay180510.wmv – by the way, the archive of visiting speaker videos available at http://portal.lsri.nottingham.ac.uk/Seminars/Lists/Events/Archived%20Events.aspx is a great resource.
