Brief Biography.

Herbert P Ginsburg, Jacob H. Schiff Foundations Professor Emeritus of Psychology & Education, ginsburg@,

This paper offers reflections on future directions for early mathematics and science education.

GINSBURG, the man who led Ampex Corporation's development of the world's first practical videotape recorder, died at his Eugene, Oregon, home on April 9,

He has drawn on cognitive developmental research to develop mathematics curricula (Big Math for Little Kids) and storybooks for young children, tests of mathematical thinking, and video workshops to enhance teachers’ understanding of students’ mathematics learning.

Dr. Ginsburg has created computer-based systems (MCLASS: MATH) for helping teachers to conduct basic clinical interviews to assess children’s mathematical knowledge. He has developed computer software, MathemAntics, and interactive storybooks to foster young children’s (from 3 years to grade 3) mathematics learning.
