Borji, Vahid; Radmehr, Farzad; Font, Vicenç – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The goal of the present study is to investigate the impact of procedural and conceptual teaching on students' mathematical performance over time. For this purpose, implicit differentiation and integration by parts were taught in two different ways to first-year university students of two different calculus courses: one course with Conceptual…

Radmehr, Farzad; Drake, Michael – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
Several studies have explored students' understanding of the relationships between definite integrals and areas under curve(s). So far, however, there has been less attention to students' understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). In addition, students' metacognitive experiences and skills whilst solving FTC questions have not…

Radmehr, Farzad; Drake, Michael – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
In this paper, the knowledge dimension for Revised Bloom's taxonomy (RBT) is unpacked for integral calculus. As part of this work, the 11 subtypes of the knowledge dimension are introduced, and through document analysis of chapter 4 of the RBT handbook, these subtypes are defined. Then, by consulting materials frequently used for teaching integral…
