Chelsey Legacy; Andrew Zieffler; V. N. Vimal Rao; Robert Delmas – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2025
As ideas from data science become more prevalent in secondary curricula, it is important to understand secondary teachers' content knowledge and reasoning about complex data structures and modern visualizations. The purpose of this case study is to explore how secondary teachers make sense of mappings between data and visualizations, especially…

Irene Mauricio Cazorla; Miriam Cardoso Utsumi; Sandra Maria Magina – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2023
This article aims to present a first approximation of the conceptual field of measures of central tendency (MCT), grounded in the theory of conceptual fields. We propose six situations according to type of variable, data presentation (raw or grouped) and amount of data. We revisit specific situations for the mean and exemplify several…

Loux, Travis; Gibson, Andrew K. – Teaching Statistics: An International Journal for Teachers, 2019
Although the use of real-world data sets is encouraged when teaching statistics, it can be difficult for instructors to find meaningful data for introducing students to univariate descriptive statistics such as the mean, median, and percentiles. The recent lead contamination of the water supply in Flint, Michigan, provides a real-life data set…

Shuyuan Yu – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Analogy is a powerful learning mechanism for children to learn novel, abstract concepts from only limited input, yet also requires cognitive supports. My dissertation sought to propose and examine number lines as a mathematical schema of the number system to facilitate both the development of rational number understanding and analogical reasoning.…

Papandreou, Maria – Early Years: An International Journal of Research and Development, 2022
Recent research has acknowledged young children's potential to engage in data handling activities and create their own representations. However, our knowledge on children's graphical signs produced during data representations and the way they are utilized is poor. Highlighting the critical importance of signs as cultural tools for mathematical…

Woo, Ashley; Steiner, Elizabeth D. – RAND Corporation, 2023
In 2023, California will implement a new statewide math framework that will drive curriculum decisions and pedagogical approaches for years to come. Although the state's content standards for mathematics are not changing, a statewide framework could nevertheless shift instruction by providing educators with guidance on how to implement content…

Selent, Douglas; Patikorn, Thanaporn; Heffernan, Neil – Grantee Submission, 2016
In this paper, we present a dataset consisting of data generated from 22 previously and currently running randomized controlled experiments inside the ASSISTments online learning platform. This dataset provides data mining opportunities for researchers to analyze ASSISTments data in a convenient format across multiple experiments at the same time.…

Keuning, Trynke; van Geel, Marieke; Visscher, Adrie; Fox, Jean-Paul – Journal of Educational Measurement, 2019
Data-based decision making (DBDM) is presumed to improve student performance in elementary schools in all subjects. The majority of studies in which DBDM effects have been evaluated have focused on mathematics. A hierarchical multiple single-subject design was used to measure effects of a 2-year training, in which entire school teams learned how…

Angotti, Robin – Mathematics Teacher, 2017
This article describes Gapminder, a dynamic time-series graph that can be found at http://www.gapminder.org. Gapminder was created by a team of developers (Rosling, Ronnlund, and Rosling 2005) to create beautiful, interactive graphs of otherwise lifeless numbers. Their goal is increased use and understanding of statistics and data that…

Sole, Marla A. – Mathematics Teacher, 2016
Every day, students collect, organize, and analyze data to make decisions. In this data-driven world, people need to assess how much trust they can place in summary statistics. The results of every survey and the safety of every drug that undergoes a clinical trial depend on the correct application of appropriate statistics. Recognizing the…

Mulligan, Joanne; Oslington, Gabrielle; English, Lyn – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2020
An Australian longitudinal study of 319 Kindergartners developed, implemented and evaluated an intervention, the Pattern and Structure Mathematics Awareness Program (PASMAP). It comprised of repetitions and growing patterns, structured counting and grouping, grids and shapes, partitioning, additive and multiplicative structures, measurement and…

Baroutsis, Aspa; White, Sonia L. J.; Hamilton, Annette; Jones, Madeline; Waters, Rayelene – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2018
This article encourages approaches that develop children's understandings of data representations. In particular, when children develope flexibility in their approaches to data representation and understanding, the same data can be represented in different ways. Flexible and adaptive use of representations is part of mathematics competence which…

Kazak, Sibel; Pratt, Dave; Gökce, Rukiye – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2018
We explore 11-12-year-old students' emerging ideas of models and modelling as they engage in a data-modelling task involving inquiry based on data obtained from an experiment. We report on a design-based study in which students identified what and how to measure, decided how to structure and represent data, and made inferences and predictions…

Fouh, Eric; Farghally, Mohammed; Hamouda, Sally; Koh, Kyu Han; Shaffer, Clifford A. – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2016
We present an analysis of log data from a semester's use of the OpenDSA eTextbook system with the goal of determining the most difficult course topics in a data structures course. While experienced instructors can identify which topics students most struggle with, this often comes only after much time and effort, and does not provide real-time…

Gould, Robert – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2017
Past definitions of statistical literacy should be updated in order to account for the greatly amplified role that data now play in our lives. Experience working with high-school students in an innovative data science curriculum has shown that teaching statistical literacy, augmented by data literacy, can begin early.
