For many years, multiple representations have played a major role in the teaching and learning of mathematics (NCTM, 2014). The present study defined and investigated a particular phenomenon called representational conflict, which can arise when students simultaneously use multiple representations on the same mathematical task. Representational…

Samuels, Jason – ProQuest LLC, 2010
This study was inspired by a history of student difficulties in calculus, and innovation in response to those difficulties. The goals of the study were fourfold. First, to design a mathlet for students to explore local linearity. Second, to redesign the curriculum of first semester calculus around the use of technology, an emphasis on…
