Nishi, Naomi W. – Journal of Higher Education, 2021
This study uses "Critical Race Theory," "Settler Colonialism," and "Critical Whiteness Studies" to frame how property is recognized only under the auspices of whiteness. In the college algebra classroom, this is born out through white entitlement, racialized senses of sharing, and resource allocation. This study uses…

Carreon, Fernando; DeBacker, Stephen; Kessenich, Paul; Kubena, Angela; LaRose, P. Gavin – PRIMUS, 2018
In the abstract for "Calculus for a New Century: A Pump, Not a Filter," Lynn Steen wrote: "The authors agree on the forces that are reshaping calculus, but disagree on how to respond to these forces. They agree that the current course is not satisfactory, yet disagree about new content emphases. They agree that the neglect of…

Rodriguez, Manuel – ProQuest LLC, 2018
College algebra students face one of the highest failure rates in the U.S. The purpose of this research project was to investigate the impact graphic calculators had on college students' final grade after completing a required college algebra course. Using constructivism as a theory and a quantitative, quasi-experimental approach, the researcher…

Shahriari, Razieh – ProQuest LLC, 2019
This mixed qualitative and quantitative methods study addressed the effect of technology on college algebra and survey of calculus students' understanding. This research study was conducted in fall 2016 on eight college algebra classes with a total of 315 students, and in summer 2017, on two survey of calculus classes with a total of 40 students…

Öçal, Mehmet Fatih – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Technology, 2017
Graphing function is an important issue in mathematics education due to its use in various areas of mathematics and its potential roles for students to enhance learning mathematics. The use of some graphing software assists students' learning during graphing functions. However, the display of graphs of functions that students sketched by hand may…

Mao, Yi; White, Tyreke; Sadler, Philip M.; Sonnert, Gerhard – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2017
This study investigates how the use of calculators during high school mathematics courses is associated with student performance in introductory college calculus courses in the USA. Data were drawn from a nationally representative sample of 7087 students enrolled in college calculus at 134 colleges and universities. They included information about…

Liang, Senfeng – International Journal of Research in Education and Science, 2016
Although the mathematics community has long accepted the concept of limit as the foundation of modern Calculus, the concept of limit itself has been marginalized in undergraduate Calculus education. In this paper, I analyze the strategy of conceptual conflict to teach the concept of limit with the aid of an online tool--Desmos graphing calculator.…

Nzuki, Francis – International Journal of Information and Communication Technology Education, 2016
This study examines graphing calculator affordances in learning mathematics among college precalculus students. The study draws from the Cognitive Load Theory (CLT) and the "Intelligent Technology" theoretical framework proposed by Salomon, Perkins, and Globerson (1991). From these perspectives the effects "with" the graphing…

Thomas, Ryan Vail – ProQuest LLC, 2016
The goal of this study is to explore and characterize the effects of using a dynamic graphing utility (DGU) on conceptual understanding and attitudes toward mathematics, measured by the responses of college algebra students to an attitude survey and concepts assessment. Two sections of college algebra taught by the primary researcher are included…

Tobin, Patrick C.; Weiss, Vida – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2016
The use of handheld CAS technology in undergraduate mathematics courses in Australia is paradoxically shrinking under sustained disapproval or disdain from the professional mathematics community. Mathematics education specialists argue with their mathematics colleagues over a range of issues in course development and this use of CAS or even…
