Resumen
Children’s and adults' mathematical knowledge frequently appears to be in a state of crisis - a crisis of skills or a crisis of creativity. While cautioning against universal solutions, this paper suggests that the incorporation into the curriculum of computer-based activities designed to help students connect their informal knowledge with the conventional practices of mathematics is one way out of this impasse.
