Abolfazl Rafiepour – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2023
In this paper duality between real world phenomenon and mathematics will be discussed. This duality exists for many years which considerably remarked in the history of mathematics curriculum. One of the good potential for filling the gap between real world phenomenon and mathematical ideas would be modelling tasks which require performing the…

Kaur, Berinderjeet; Tong, Cherng Luen; Jahangeer, Mohamed Jahabar – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
The primary school mathematics syllabuses in Singapore as of the year 2020 reinforces that Big ideas are central to the learning of mathematics. In support of the push to teach for big ideas, a research study is presently underway. A part of it is on the professional development (PD) of primary school mathematics teachers. As part of the PD…

Kristin Zorn; Kym Fry; Kevin Larkin; Peter Grootenboer – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
Problems presented in mathematics classrooms often focus on routine tasks with students practicing mathematical techniques demonstrated by the teacher. However, this does not reflect the problem-solving process in the real world, and students often find it difficult to connect school mathematics with authentic contexts. This paper discusses…

Hwang, Young S.; Vrongistinos, Konstantinos; Kim, Jemma; Min, Amy E. – International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, 2021
This study invested 24 effective and 16 ineffective problem-solving kindergarten children's awareness of metacognitive self-regulated learning (MSRL) while watching other child's problem-solving behaviors. The model in a video performed a task with a trial-and-error approach and finally asked for help. After watching the video, children were asked…

Sharyn Livy – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2024
Technology can play a pivotal role in mathematics education. Qualitative methods were used to report on how a Year 1-2 teacher incorporated "Conveyance technology" (iPads), to support the teaching and learning of mathematics through student reasoning and problem-solving. The study was conducted in Australia. A single case was chosen,…

Extant research has demonstrated that problem-posing and problem-solving mutually affect one another. However, the exact nature and extent of this relationship requires a detailed elaboration. This is especially true when adidactical problem-posing arises within a problem-solving context. In this study, we analyze the scripting journey used by two…

Roan, Elizabeth; Czocher, Jennifer – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
Literature typically describes mathematization, the process of transforming a real-world situation into a mathematical model, in terms of desirable actions and behaviors students exhibit. We attended to STEM undergraduate students' quantitative reasoning as they derived equations. Analysis of the meanings they held for arithmetic operations (+, -,…

Estrada, Sharon Samantha Membreño; Soto, Claudia Margarita Acuña – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
The number line is a model that is used to measure, count, order and even operate, which requires a symbolic interpretation. Then, we investigate the conceptions of 72 in service secondary teachers, when they manage the model of the number line associated with order, spatial location and the relative position between numbers and marks. In a…

Worthwhile Problems: How Teachers Evaluate the Instructional Suitability of Contextual Algebra Tasks
Cody L. Patterson; Mai Bui; Lino Guajardo; Carlos Acevedo; Brandi Rygaard Gaspard; Rebecca McGraw – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
We investigate the beliefs that influence middle and high school algebra teachers' appraisals of contextual problems having diverse mathematical and pedagogical features. We asked six teachers to analyze six contextual algebra tasks and indicate how they would apportion instructional time among the six tasks based on their structure, pedagogical…

Palisse, Jennifer; King, Deborah; MacLean, Mark – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2021
Comparative judgement is a relatively new way of facilitating peer-assessment where students are shown pairs of other students' work and judge which of the two is better. Literature on example-based learning suggests that students should be able to learn from comparative judgement. We present the case of one student, Josie, whose understanding of…

Gallagher, Keith – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
Many students struggle with proof writing. However, struggle is not universally bad: researchers have distinguished between productive and unproductive forms of struggle and have identified productive struggle as essential for learning mathematics. Yet, in practice, recognizing when learners are engaged in productive struggle or unproductive…

Brown, Rachael Eriksen; Orrill, Chandra Hawley – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
In this paper, we extend our previous work on challenges teachers face when engaging with proportional reasoning contexts to investigate two contexts that included four problems for middle grades teachers to solve as well as eight student solutions. Analysis included coding for correct solving of the problem as well as making sense of and…

Mathematical modeling is a process in which students investigate authentic problems and everyday situations using mathematics. In doing so, they bring their multiple mathematical knowledge bases and cultural funds of knowledge into their solution strategies. During a task called "Abuelo's Birthday", 297 students in grades 3-5 decided how…

Zhou, Yiqiu; Kang, Jina – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
The complex and dynamic nature of collaboration makes it challenging to find indicators of productive learning and quality collaboration. This exploratory study developed a collaboration metric to capture temporal patterns of joint attention (JA) based on log files generated as students interacted with an immersive astronomy simulation using…

Samadi, Mohammad Amin; Cavazos, Jacqueline G.; Lin, Yiwen; Nixon, Nia – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2022
Collaborative problem solving (CPS) is a 21st-century skill essential for learning gains, workplace success, and tackling increasingly complicated global problems. Group diversity plays a vital role during collaborative activities, especially in a digital space. Although CPS involves dynamic communication behaviors, few studies have considered the…
