Spatial reasoning connects math to the physical world and includes skills like reading maps, understanding symmetry and building 3D objects. Research indicates that spatial reasoning skills correlate ...
Spatial abilities, including understanding object properties and mentally visualizing problems, are strong predictors of later STEM success (Farran et al., 2024; Wai et al., 2009), yet remain ...
A sustained focus on spatial reasoning training could help children learn science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Spatial training with blocks and puzzles could unlock mathematical potential ...
Spatial reasoning measured in infancy predicts how children do in mathematics at four years of age, says a new study published in Psychological Science. “We’ve provided the earliest documented ...
Researchers at the University of Chicago are offering more evidence that exposing kids to spatial learning at an early age helps them to better understand math concepts when they’re older. In February ...
Duke University Talent Identification Program researcher Jonathan Wai has an interesting column in which he questions why our educational system doesn't value spatial reasoning as much as it values ...
