While boosting kids’ math and verbal skills may draw more attention from parents and educators, spatial reasoning skills play an important -- sometimes overlooked -- role in academic and career ...

Spatial reasoning measured in infancy predicts how children do at math at four years of age, finds a new study. It provides the earliest documented evidence for a relationship between spatial ...

What do reading a map, building a block tower and loading the dishwasher have in common? They are all activities that strengthen spatial reasoning, a skill set that is vital to children’s success in ...

Duke University Talent Identification Program researcher Jonathan Wai has an interesting column in which he questions why our educational system doesn't value spatial reasoning as much as it values ...

Play may seem like fun and games, but new research shows that specific kinds of play are actually associated with development of particular cognitive skills. Data from a nationally representative ...

Vision-language models (VLMs) are advanced computational techniques designed to process both images and written texts, making predictions accordingly. Among other things, these models could be used to ...

Spatial reasoning ability in small children reflects how well they will perform in mathematics later. Researchers recently came to this conclusion, making the case for better cultivation of spatial ...
