Vladimir Miškovic – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2023
The purpose of this article is to present and discuss two recommended sequences of learning the areas of polygons, starting from the area of a rectangle. Exploring the algebraic derivations of the two sequences reveals that both are valid teaching progressions for introducing the area formula for various polygons. Further, it is suggested that…

Anatriello, Giuseppina; Tortoriello, Francesco Saverio; Vincenzi, Giovanni – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2016
In line with the latest positions of Gottlob Frege, this article puts forward the hypothesis that the cognitive bases of mathematics are geometric in nature. Starting from the geometry axioms of the "Elements" of Euclid, we introduce a geometric theory of proportions along the lines of the one introduced by Grassmann in…

Okigbo, Ebele C.; Osuafor, Abigail M. – Educational Research and Reviews, 2008
The study investigated the effect of using mathematics laboratory in teaching on students' achievement in Junior Secondary School Mathematics. A total of 100 JS 3 Mathematics students were involved in the study. The study is a quasi-experimental research. Results were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA).…
