Andrew Kercher; Canan Günes; Rina Zazkis – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
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…

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…

Johnson, Kim – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2017
Proportional reasoning is important to the field of mathematics education because it lies at the crossroads of additive reasoning in the elementary school and multiplicative reasoning needed for more advanced mathematics. This research reports on the representations used by pre-service teachers (PSTs) as they responded to tasks involving…

Paoletti, Teo – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2015
Researchers have argued that students can develop foundational understandings for a variety of mathematical concepts through quantitative reasoning. I extend this research by exploring how students' quantitative reasoning can support them in developing meanings for inverse relations that influence their inverse function meanings. After summarizing…

Fonger, Nicole L. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2013
This research study was specifically concerned with the development, testing, and revision to an instructional theory for studying the mathematical concepts of equivalence and equation solving with multiple representations and multiple tools. Following a design research approach, a collaborative teaching experiment was conducted with a ninth-grade…
