Williams-Pierce, Caro; Katirci, Nihal; Simpson, Amber; Shokeen, Ekta; Bih, Janet – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
We offer this synthesized framework as a tool to reveal mathematical activity in a non-formal makerspace. In particular, we connect research at different grain sizes to illustrate and explain how mathematics plays a crucial, if often implicit, role in this activity. We begin with describing the Approximate Number System and the Ratio-Processing…

Litster, Kristy – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2020
This study examined how two small-group discourse types (Reflective and Exploratory) supported the inclusion and enacted levels of cognitive demand of students who typically struggle with mathematics in real-world, task-based assessment activities. The study focused on 11 fifth-grade students within a larger study involving 97 fifth-grade students…

Manouchehri, Azita; Sanjari, Azin – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2019
We analyzed 5th grade students' interactions with one computer-based modeling simulation to examine how they defined and prioritized variables in a dynamically simulated environment. Results revealed that exposure to the simulation environment helped students visualize continuous motions, interpret the different quantities present in the model,…
