国际数学教育界正以惊人的速度走向成熟。虽然这个社区已经发展了自己的研究视角和理论框架，但它继续利用数学、心理学、社会学、哲学、人类学和信息技术方面的新理论和研究来扩展自己的视野。数学思维与学习是针对那些对数学教育感兴趣的研究人员，从这些角度进行研究，特别关注数学思维、推理和学习。本杂志寻求高质量的文章，解决以下一个或多个主题:数学学习、推理或思维的跨学科研究及其在各个年龄段的发展;技术进步及其对数学思维和学习的影响;探索数学推理的不同过程的研究;关于数学理解如何在生命周期中发展的新见解，包括重要的过渡时期;改变对数学本质的看法及其对正式和非正式环境下的数学思维和学习的影响;探索数学教育国际化的研究，以及其他跨文化的数学思维和学习研究;和研究促进数学学习、思考和发展的创新教学实践。除了接受研究论文外，该杂志还邀请发表与前一主题相关的理论和哲学分析文章。
The international mathematics education community is maturing at a rapid and exciting rate. Although this community has developed its own research perspectives and theoretical frameworks, it continues to expand its horizons by drawing upon new theories and research in mathematics, psychology, sociology, philosophy, anthropology, and information technology. Mathematical Thinking and Learning is directed at researchers interested in mathematics education from any of these perspectives, with a particular focus on mathematical thinking, reasoning, and learning.This journal seeks high-quality articles that address one or more of the following topics: interdisciplinary studies on mathematical learning, reasoning or thinking, and their developments at all ages; technological advances and their impact on mathematical thinking and learning; studies that explore the diverse processes of mathematical reasoning; new insights into how mathematical understandings develop across the life span, including significant transitional periods; changing perspectives on the nature of mathematics and their impact on mathematical thinking and learning in both formal and informal contexts; studies that explore the internationalization of mathematics education, together with other cross-cultural studies of mathematical thinking and learning; and studies of innovative instructional practices that foster mathematical learning, thinking, and development.In addition to receiving research articles, the journal invites articles that present theoretical and philosophical analyses of issues related to the previous topics.
