Fatma Agacdiken; Rezan Yilmaz – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
This research aims to investigate the construction of the area of rectangle with GeoGebra and how students can formulate it. It focuses on describing the cognitive process involved in constructing this concept and how technology mediates such a process. The research was conducted in a classroom with 5th grade students in a secondary school and was…

Gantt, Allison L.; Paoletti, Teo; Greenstein, Steven – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Despite significant research exploring students' quantitative reasoning, few studies have explored the semiotic processes that mediate its development. In this report, we present a case study to show how one student constructed a semiotic chain for a quantity as he worked with a mathematical task. Importantly, we connect frameworks for…

Dohn, Niels Bonderup – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The ability to code computer programs is considered an important part of literacy in today's society. This paper reports from a case study in two sixth-grade classes where Scratch coding was part of six mathematics lessons. The aim of the study was to investigate how Scratch coding affected students' interest development in coding and in…

Aridor, Keren; Ben-Zvi, Dani – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
While aggregate reasoning is a core aspect of statistical reasoning, its development is a key challenge in statistics education. In this study we examine how students' aggregate reasoning with samples and sampling (ARWSS) can emerge in the context of statistical modeling activities of real phenomena. We present a case study on the emergent ARWSS…

Laolagi, Laura – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Storytelling is universal and is popular in many cultures where it is a medium people use to preserve their beliefs, social values, wisdom, and cultural experiences as well as transfer them from one generation to another. In American Samoa, over 90% of students are classified as English Language Learners (ELLs) and literacy rates are very low,…

Barajas-Saavedra, Arturo; Álvarez-Rodriguez, Francisco J.; Mendoza-González, Ricardo; Oviedo-De-Luna, Ana C. – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2015
Development of digital resources is difficult due to their particular complexity relying on pedagogical aspects. Another aspect is the lack of well-defined development processes, experiences documented, and standard methodologies to guide and organize game development. Added to this, there is no documented technique to ensure correct…
