Kop, Peter M. G. M.; Janssen, Fred J. J. M.; Drijvers, Paul H. M.; van Driel, Jan H. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2021
Student insight into algebraic formulas, including the ability to identify the structure of a formula and its components and to reason with and about formulas, is an issue in mathematics education. In this study, we investigated how 16- and 17-year-old pre-university students' insight into algebraic formulas can be promoted through graphing…

Moonen, Machteld; de Graaff, Rick; Westhoff, Gerard; Brekelmans, Mieke – Language Teaching Research, 2014
This study focuses on the effects of task type on the retention and ease of activation of second language (L2) vocabulary, based on the multi-feature hypothesis (Moonen, De Graaff, & Westhoff, 2006). Two tasks were compared: a writing task and a list-learning task. It was hypothesized that performing the writing task would yield higher…
