Abstract
By bringing contributions from cognitive science and neuroscience, this article enhances the gestures approach including, manipulations on mobile devices as a new way of communicating and thinking. The paper reflects on the cognitive and linguistic implications that smartphones or tablets can bring to learning in general and mathematical education in particular. Both thinking and mathematics are dynamic. Through two examples from daily life, I advocate the need to understand the development of mathematical thinking as a conjunction of touchscreen, gesture, speech, dragging, writing, pictorial-register, etc. Taking into account the context of production, this bundle has a significant role in the linguistic-cognitive spectrum of humans.
Highlights
By bringing contributions from cognitive science and neuroscience, this article enhances the gestures approach including, manipulations on mobile devices as a new way of communicating and thinking
Introduction the ideas developed in this article are: i) manipulations on screen represent a new form of language
As tablets and smartphones are constant symbiosis and reconfiguration with the extensions of our bodies, we have come to perform environment; iii) since human actions, as well as activities in our lives, which we would not have done mathematical concepts, are multimodal in their without them. These are the types of situations that have development and understanding, we need to consider stimulated me in my research group on mathematics the conjunction of gesture + speech + construction-oneducation

Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRRJ) Abstract- By bringing contributions from cognitive science and neuroscience, this article enhances the gestures approach including, manipulations on mobile devices as a new way of communicating and thinking.

Through two examples from daily life, I advocate the need to understand the development of mathematical thinking as a conjunction of touchscreen, gesture, speech, dragging, writing, pictorial-register, etc. Taking into account the context of production, this bundle has a significant role in the linguistic-cognitive spectrum of humans.
