summaryHumans come to life equipped with sophisticated mechanisms based on parietal cortex circuitry for representing different aspects of the  self and of the world that are crucial for planning actions. These aspects mainly relate to space and quantity and include position, spatial configuration, size, time, and approximate number. While these mechanisms are functional at very early age, during development they undergo important refinements both as a function of pure brain maturation and of exposure to specific cultural practices. The presentation will draw upon the latest functional imaging and research data to demonstrate why and how understanding these mechanisms can have strong practical implications for maths teaching and remedial programs.
