Rodríguez-Nieto, Camilo Andrés; Rodríguez-Vásquez, Flor Monserrat; Moll, Vicenç Font – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
The literature reports that students have difficulties connecting different meanings, multiple representations of the derivative, and performing reversibility processes between representations of f and f'. The research goal is to analyze the mathematical connections that university students establish when solving tasks that involve the graphs of f…

Caro, Diana García; García, Carlos Valenzuela; Sanz, María T.; González, María S. García – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper describes the conceptions about complex numbers that a group of university students has, these were built from the application of an activity sequence centered on these numbers. This sequence is based on the APOS theory, some aspects of semiotic representation theory, and the use of digital technology. Particularly, both the general…

Aviña González, María José; Monroy, Angelina Alvarado – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2020
This paper presents the design and analysis of a Model-Eliciting Activity (MEA), which aims to support the refinement of the conceptual system associated with directly proportional distribution problems (example: linear function, percentage, proportion, variation, etc.). The situation explores a context that is close to the student, encouraging…
