Stupel, Moshe; Fraivert, David; Jahangiri, Jay – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2023
With the ever-evolving implementation of technology in the teaching and learning of geometry, the task of designing and/or finding suitable questions or problems that can facilitate and promote mathematical reasoning and accurately assess students' understanding of the subject matter can be a challenge. It is the aim of this article to share the…

Stupel, Moshe; Sigler, Avi; Tal, Idan – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2019
An interesting Sangaku problem was chosen and a multidirectional study was performed, which included finding the locus of a circle's center moving while being tangent to two circles. It also included finding the radius of that circle given the datum that it is also tangent to the side of an isosceles triangle. Two different proofs are presented of…

Oxman, Victor; Stupel, Moshe – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The present paper describes a dynamic investigation of polygons obtained by reflecting an arbitrary point located inside or outside a given polygon through the midpoints of its sides. The activity was based on hypothesizing on the shape of the reflection polygon that would be obtained, testing the hypotheses using dynamic software, and finding a…

Stupel, Moshe; Ben-Chaim, David – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2017
Mathematics educators agree that linking mathematical ideas by using multiple approaches for solving problems (or proving statements) is essential for the development of mathematical reasoning. In this sense, geometry provides a goldmine of multiple-solution tasks, where a myriad of different methods can be employed: either from the geometry topic…
