Question 1
1 In not more than 1500 words, critically discuss the relationship between cognition and
modelling, drawing from the cognitive modelling of the learning process and the subjective
perception of cognition. Furthermore, investigate the role of modelling in the formulation of
pedagogical content knowledge, considering the perspectives presented in the textbook 'Elementary
and Middle School Mathematics: Teaching Developmentally' by Van De Walle, JA. (2013) and its
impact on teacher knowledge and learner learning.

Cognition is the mental process of acquiring knowledge and
understanding through thought, experience, and the senses. It
encompasses various mental abilities such as perception, attention,
memory, language, problem-solving, decision making, and reasoning.
Modelling refers to the process of creating a simplified representation
of a system, process, or phenomenon to better understand, explain, or
make predictions about it. The relationship between cognition and
modelling is intricate and multifaceted, with both concepts influencing
and shaping each other.
Cognitive modelling of the learning process involves creating
computational models that simulate how humans learn and process
information. These models are based on principles and theories from
cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence. They aim
to understand and replicate the cognitive processes involved in
learning, such as attention, memory, and problem-solving. Cognitive
modelling provides insights into the underlying mechanisms of learning
and helps to develop more effective teaching and learning strategies.
One prominent approach to cognitive modelling is the information-
processing model, which views the mind as a computer-like system that
processes information through various stages, such as encoding,
storage, and retrieval. This model has been used to study and
understand how learners acquire, represent, and recall information, as
well as how they solve problems and make decisions. By simulating
these cognitive processes, researchers and educators can gain a better
