Re: [xmca] Analyses of gesture & speech

Michael/Minati

There is a journal issue of RELIME (special issue editor Luis Radford)
just out
on semiotics and culture: Andreas Koukkoufis and I have a paper about use of
manipulatives (gesture and speech) in teaching about integers through
games/RME
method - plus there is a special issue of Ed Stud in Maths (ESM) under review
on gesture and multimodality (eds Edwards Arzarello, Radford) and we have a
paper in that too. There are some conference papers in procs from PME 26
(Melbourne) in the Working group on gestures and embodied cognition: the ESM
issue largely comes formthat workign group.

You could also look for Radford in ESM

I could send papers to people who want them.
