Downton, Ann; Livy, Sharyn – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2022
Whilst spatial reasoning skills have been found to predict mathematical achievement, little is known about how primary (elementary) students' conceptual understanding of three-dimensional objects develops. In this article, we report a qualitative study and the impact of rich learning experiences on 48 Years 3-6 students' geometric reasoning…

Lowrie, Tom; Logan, Tracy; Ramful, Ajay – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2016
Although the psychological literature has demonstrated that spatial reasoning and mathematics performance are correlated, there is scant research on these relationships in the middle years. The current study examined the commonalities and differences in students' performance on instruments that measured three spatial reasoning constructs and two…

Tatar, Enver; Akkaya, Adnan; Kagizmanli, Türkan Berrin – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2014
This study was carried out to examine the effects of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) using dynamic software on the achievement of students in mathematics in the topic of reflection symmetry. The study also aimed to ascertain the pre-service mathematics teachers' opinions on the use of CAI in mathematics lessons. In the study, a mixed research…
