Weinberg, Aaron; Wiesner, Emilie; Fukawa-Connelly, Tim – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2016
Although lecture is the traditional method of university mathematics instruction, there has been little empirical research that describes the general structure of lectures. In this paper, we adapt ideas from narrative analysis and apply them to an upper-level mathematics lecture. We develop a framework that enables us to conceptualize the lecture…

Milovanovic, Marina; Takaci, Durdica; Milajic, Aleksandar – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2011
This article presents the importance of using multimedia in the math classes by an example of multimedia lesson about definite integral and the results of the research carried out among the students of the first years of faculty, divided into two groups of 25. One group had the traditional lecture about the definite integral, while the other one…

Moreira, Valeria Guimaraes; Pinto, Marcia Maria Fusaro – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2004
This paper reports ongoing research investigating how students' experiences with the notion of tangent line in different lecture courses at a technical school are being integrated to the related mathematical concept. Focusing on a technical course case study, we examine how aspects of the notion of tangent line are related to features of the…
