Zubi, Ibtisam Abdelhalek; Peled, Irit; Yarden, Marva – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2019
This study investigates the participation and knowledge growth of children with mathematical difficulties as they work in groups with their classmates on a year-long sequence of modelling tasks. It involves observations of a class of 23 fifth graders, 9 of whom were identified as having difficulties in mathematics. All the students worked for 8…

Bodroza-Pantic, O.; Matic-Kekic, Snezana; Jakovljev, Bogdanka; Markovic, Doko – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2008
In this paper the didactically-methodological procedure named the MTE-model of mathematics teaching (Motivation test-Teaching-Examination test) is suggested and recommended when the teacher has subsequent lessons. This model is presented in detail through the processing of a nonstandard theme--the theme of decomposition of planes. Its efficiency…

Roberts, A. L.; Sharma, M. D.; Britton, S.; New, P. B. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2007
This project aimed to quantitatively measure the ability of first year science students to transfer their mathematical skills and knowledge to a physical context. An instrument used in earlier studies to measure transfer of mathematical knowledge was modified for this project, and tested with 49 student volunteers. This paper presents the Transfer…
