This article is a review of the current state of interaction between research into the cognitive sciences and mathematics learning in Argentina. It will firstly outline the main guidelines of Argentina?s current educational curricula in regard to the learning of mathematics. Secondly, the results Argentina obtained in international standardized tests are described and research proposals aimed at improving these results are put forward. Finally, the article explores the current lack of interaction between research into cognitive sciences and mathematical education and presents recent proposals that seek to bridge these two areas.
