Résumé

Dans cet article, nous abordons le problème de la relation entre cerveau, mathématiques et cognition. Dans la première partie, nous présentons certains éléments en relation avec l'anatomie et la croissance du cerveau. À partir de ces éléments et de résultats récents de la recherche neurologique, nous présentons, dans la deuxième partie, un sommaire des parties cérébrales généralement associées à la pensée arithmétique. Nous payons une attention particulière à un problème intéressant du point de vue didactique, à savoir celui des régions corticales activées lors de la transition de la pensée arithmétique perceptuelle (présente chez plusieurs espèces) à la pensée arithmétique symbolique calculatoire (spécifique à l'humain seulement). Par la suite, nous faisons un résumé des recherches effectuées en neuroscience qui touchent la question des régions corticales activées par la pensée algébrique. La recension des recherches dans ce domaine offre un panorama général qui souligne la conception multimodale de la cognition en générale et de la cognition mathématique en particulier. Cette nature multimodale de la cognition est compatible à plusieurs niveaux avec le développement ontogénétique du cerveau, développement qui s'avère fortement lié au contexte culturel. Dans les conclusions, nous suggérons certains problèmes et questions qui pourraient servir de point de départ d'un programme de recherche entre éducateurs et neuroscientifiques.
