國際數學教育界正以驚人的速度走向成熟。雖然這個社區已經發展了自己的研究視角和理論框架，但它繼續利用數學、心理學、社會學、哲學、人類學和信息技術方面的新理論和研究來擴展自己的視野。數學思維與學習是針對那些對數學教育感興趣的研究人員，從這些角度進行研究，特別關注數學思維、推理和學習。本雜志尋求高質量的文章，解決以下一個或多個主題:數學學習、推理或思維的跨學科研究及其在各個年齡段的發展;技術進步及其對數學思維和學習的影響;探索數學推理的不同過程的研究;關于數學理解如何在生命周期中發展的新見解，包括重要的過渡時期;改變對數學本質的看法及其對正式和非正式環境下的數學思維和學習的影響;探索數學教育國際化的研究，以及其他跨文化的數學思維和學習研究;和研究促進數學學習、思考和發展的創新教學實踐。除了接受研究論文外，該雜志還邀請發表與前一主題相關的理論和哲學分析文章。

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.
