Mónica Arnal-Palacián; Francisco J. Claros-Mellado; María T. Sánchez-Compaña – Pythagoras, 2024
The purpose of this article is to conduct a mathematical and phenomenological comparison of three concepts: (1) the finite limit of a function at a point, (2) the finite limit of a sequence, and (3) the infinite limit of a sequence. Additionally, we aim to analyse the presence of these concepts in Spanish textbooks. The methodology employed is…

Lenkaitis, Chesla Ann; Loranc-Paszylk, Barbara – Language Teaching Research, 2021
This article investigates how engaging students to discuss topics that reflect their ideologies in lingua franca (LF) virtual exchanges can help facilitate global citizenship development. A six-week virtual exchange is explored with students from universities in Mexico, Poland, Spain, and the USA. This study utilizes five key elements of…

Elena Castro Rodríguez; María D. Torres González; Marina Maniega Fernández – European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, 2024
This case study was undertaken to characterise the interventions made by a kindergarten teacher during a multiplicative structure problem-solving lesson. The study findings show that when she realised the children were having difficulty, she provided assistance to enable them to find the right answer. When the children gave an incorrect response,…

Josune Landa; Ainhoa Berciano; José M. Marbán – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2025
The development of high levels of mathematical competence at an early age is a good predictor of academic success at higher levels of the education system. In this sense, the initial training of primary school teachers and, in particular, the achievement of high levels of self-regulation when solving mathematical problems is crucial to achieve…

María del Mar López-Martín; María Burgos Navarro; Verónica Albanese – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2025
To ensure the learning of mathematics, teachers must be able to analyse their students' mathematical practices when solving tasks, interpret the difficulties that students encounter, and decide how to manage students' difficulties. This competence in didactic analysis and intervention allows teachers to adapt their teaching to meet individual…

Carballo, Armando Morales; Locia Espinoza, Edgardo; Sigarreta Almira, José M.; Yero, Ismael G. – Education Sciences, 2021
This research proposes a didactic strategy to enrich the assimilation processes of the change of variable theorem in solving the definite integral. The theoretical foundations that support it are based on the contributions of social constructivism, problem solving, and treatment of theorems. The practical validation of the strategy is carried out…

Martinez, Silvia; Blanco, Vanessa – Education Sciences, 2021
The aim of this work is to study the knowledge that 11 to 12-year-old pupils have about the different meanings of fractions. For this purpose, an investigation about the ability that 11 to 12-year-old pupils have with fraction problems through problem posing is performed. In particular, we analyze if they pose different types of problems depending…

Hernández, Alexánder; Perdomo-Díaz, Josefa; Camacho-Machín, Matías – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2020
The initial training of mathematics teachers in Spain can start in the final year of the mathematics degree when the students, and future teachers, select courses related to teaching the discipline. At that time, since over the next two years they will probably be certified to enter the profession, it is worth asking oneself what mathematical…

Rodríguez-Martínez, José Antonio; González-Calero, José Antonio; Sáez-López, José Manuel – Interactive Learning Environments, 2020
The potential benefits from the introduction of programming environments such as "Scratch" for learning mathematics has reactivated research in this area. Nonetheless, there are few studies which attempt to analyse their influence at the stage of Primary Education. We present the results of a quasi-experimental piece of research with…
