Vorob'ev, Evgenii M. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
This paper discusses the mathematical and didactical problems of teaching indefinite integral in the context of the ubiquitous availability of online integral calculators. The symbol of indefinite integral introduced by Leibniz, unfortunately, does not contain an indication of the interval on which the antiderivatives should be calculated. This…

Chorney, Sean – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
While traditional graphing calculators have become commonplace in high school mathematics classrooms, newer and more powerful connected graphing packages (CGP) are less pervasive. This study observes how four teachers integrate a CGP into their high school mathematics classrooms, with a focus on the challenges the teachers faced and the…

Flores González, Macarena; Vandebrouck, Fabrice; Vivier, Laurent – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Our work focuses on the transition from high school to university in the field of calculus. In France, recursive sequences are studied as one of the classical exercises in both institutions. Their studies use different theorems and notions, such as functions, convergence, monotonicity, induction, etc. The work expected at this transition requires…

Son, Ji-Won; Hu, Qintong; Lim, Woong – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2019
Despite the importance of computational estimation skill for the improvement of number sense, little research exists on preservice teachers' estimation skills and their view on estimation in the US context. This study examined the computational estimation skill of 58 preservice elementary teachers (PSTs) and its relationship to their views of the…

Karadeniz, Ilyas; Thompson, Denisse R. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2018
Graphing calculators are hand-held technological tools currently used in mathematics classrooms. Teachers' perspectives on using graphing calculators are important in terms of exploring what teachers think about using such technology in advanced mathematics courses, particularly precalculus courses. A descriptive intrinsic case study was conducted…
