Following several decades of academic study of such mistakes, the phrase âerrors and misconceptionsâ has recently entered the vocabulary of mathematics teacher education and has become prominent in the curriculum for initial teacher education.\u003cp\u003eThe popular view of childrenâs errors and misconceptions is that they should be corrected as soon as possible.  The authors contest this, perceiving them as potential windows into childrenâs mathematics. Errors may diagnose significant ways of thinking and stages in learning that highlight important opportunities for new learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book uses extensive, original data from the authorsâ own research on childrenâs performance, errors and misconceptions across the mathematics curriculum.
