OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

The development of quantitive reasoning
Numbers have two types of meaning: a referential meaning, characterised by the use of numbers to represent quantities and relations between quantities, and an analytical meaning, which is intrinsic to the number system. Each of these meanings relates to a specific form of mathematical knowledge, quantitative reasoning and arithmetic, respectively. After discussing the difference between these two forms of knowledge, I will present in this talk a brief synthesis of research on the development of quantitative reasoning.
