AIMS & SCOPE

AIM

 The III. International Congress on Mathematics Learning Difficulties aims to discuss psychological, educational, and technological approaches to strengthen mathematical skills of children diagnosed with dyscalculia, share current research findings in this field, and establish permanent solutions. The congress will facilitate expert exchange of views across a broad perspective, from diagnostic process challenges to intervention strategies, from educational policies to technological innovations.

SCOPE

The congress aims to encourage progress in the following areas by bringing together current theoretical and applied studies in the field of dyscalculia, particularly focusing on the theme “Overcoming Mathematical Difficulties: Psychological, Educational, and Technological Approaches”:

  1. Psychological Approaches and Diagnostic Processes
    • Complexity of dyscalculia diagnostic processes and improvement suggestions
    • Effects of cultural and linguistic factors on diagnosis
    • Addressing validity and reliability issues of diagnostic methods
  2. Educational Strategies and Interventions
    • Effective teaching methods for children diagnosed with dyscalculia
    • Intervention strategies that can be implemented in mainstream and special education settings
    • Sharing of teacher training, curriculum development, and evaluation studies
  3. Technological Applications and Innovations
    • Digital tools in mathematics teaching, game-based learning materials, and artificial intelligence-supported solutions
    • Evaluation of mobile applications, software, and data-driven intervention approaches
    • Examination of accessibility and sustainability dimensions of technological tools
  4. Cultural, Linguistic, and Political Dimensions
    • Comparison of dyscalculia diagnosis and intervention policies in different cultural and linguistic contexts
    • Discussion of regulations regarding dyscalculia and mathematical learning difficulties in national and international education policies
  5. Interdisciplinary Collaborations and International Perspectives
    • Multi-faceted solutions to be developed in the field of dyscalculia through collaboration of different disciplines
    • International expert experience sharing, global discussion of best practices
    • Development of joint research and applications through global networks and platforms
