Buteau, Chantal; Muller, Eric; Mgombelo, Joyce; Sacristán, Ana Isabel; Dreise, Kirstin – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2020
In this article, we seek to understand how university students learn to use programming as an instrument for 'authentic' mathematical investigations. We use the instrumental approach as a framework, focusing on how the transformation of the programming language into an instrument requires that the user develops or mobilizes multiple schemes at…
