Passing the introductory calculus sequence is critical to undergraduate students' retention in STEM programs. This study examines the relations between three interrelated processes found to influence mathematics learning and achievement: spatial skills, spatial anxiety, and math anxiety. Additionally, it examines the role of gender on these…

McCunn, L. J.; Cilli-Turner, E. – Journal of Educational Research and Practice, 2020
Undergraduate calculus is a foundational mathematics sequence that previews the sophistication students will need to succeed in higher-level courses. However, students often struggle with concepts in calculus because they are more abstract and visual than those in other foundational mathematics courses. Additionally, women continue to be…

Spatial skills have been shown in various longitudinal studies to be related to multiple science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) achievement and retention. The specific nature of this relation has been probed in only a few domains, and has rarely been investigated for calculus, a critical topic in preparing students for and in STEM…

Haciomeroglu, Erhan Selcuk – Educational Sciences: Theory and Practice, 2016
The present study investigated the object-spatial visualization and verbal cognitive styles among high school students and related differences in spatial ability, verbal-logical reasoning ability, and mathematical performance of those students. Data were collected from 348 students enrolled in Advanced Placement calculus courses at six high…

Haciomeroglu, Erhan Selcuk – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2015
The present study sought to design calculus tasks to determine students' preference for visual or analytic processing as well as examine the role of preferred mode of processing in calculus performance and its relationship to spatial ability and verbal-logical reasoning ability. Data were collected from 150 high school students who were enrolled…

Haciomeroglu, Erhan Selcuk; Chicken, Eric – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2011
The goal of the present study was to report an instrument designed to determine students' mathematical performances and preference for visual or analytic thinking for the calculus derivative and antiderivative tasks as well as examine the relationships among students' cognitive style, cognitive ability, and mathematical performance in calculus.…
