Visit by Dr Yusuke Shinno, Osaka Kyoiku University, Japan

The visit provided an opportunity to discuss the research being carried out by Dr Shinno and Dr Fujita into learners’ difficulties with mathematical induction, a component of the mathematics curriculum introduced at upper secondary school level (with some countries reserving the topic for university level).
