What visualization strategies support growth in mathematical thinking, reasoning, generalization, and knowledge? Is mathematical seeing culture-free? And how can information drawn from studies in blind subjects help us understand the significance of a multimodal approach to learning mathematics? ""Toward a Visually-Oriented School Mathematics Curriculum"" explores a unified theory of visualization in school mathematical learning via the notion of progressive modeling.
