Moshe Stupel; David Fravert; Jay M. Jahangiri – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2024
The 1989 good old days' quote from the "Field of Dreams" by Kevin Costner that "If you build it, he or they will come" is no longer going to be attractive, especially in the field of mathematics education. One such challenging subject in the field of mathematics education is the teaching and learning of geometry. It is the aim…

Zhong Zhengtao; Riyan Hidayat – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2025
Incorporating technology into educational processes is increasingly necessary to address the complexities of contemporary learning environments. This study investigates the impact of Augmented Reality (AR) on the academic performance of third-grade students in the areas of graphs and geometry. A quasi-experimental design was employed, comparing a…

Žakelj, Amalija; Klancar, Andreja – European Journal of Educational Research, 2022
Visual representations and the process of visualisation have an important role in geometry learning. The optimal use of visual representations in complex multimedia environments has been an important research topic since the end of the last century. For the purpose of the study presented in this paper, we designed a model of learning geometry with…

Gíslason, Ingólfur – Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education, 2021
In this article, I present a meaning-making trajectory of a teacher-class dialogue on digital, dynamic, geometric-functional tasks in an Icelandic upper-secondary classroom of low-attaining students. Learning is seen from a dialogical perspective, as taking up a more mathematical discourse, which here revolves in particular around the language of…

Martins, José Alexandre; Roca, Assumpta Estrada; Nascimento, Maria Manuel – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2014
Statistical graphs, measures of central tendency and measures of spread are key concepts in the statistics curriculum, so we present here a dynamic method (software) that may be used in the classroom. In this work we begin with an introductory approach. This is done to emphasize the importance of stimulating the visualization of statistical…

Alves, Francisco Regis Vieira – Acta Didactica Napocensia, 2013
Admittedly, the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus-TFA holds an important role in the Complex Analysis-CA, as well as in other mathematical branches. In this article, we bring a discussion about the TFA, the Rouché's theorem and the winding number with the intention to analyze the roots of a polynomial equation. We propose also a description for a…

Sinclair, Nathalie; Armstrong, Alayne – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2011
Piecewise linear functions and story graphs are concepts usually associated with algebra, but in the authors' classroom, they found success teaching this topic in a distinctly geometrical manner. The focus of the approach was less on learning geometric concepts and more on using spatial and kinetic reasoning. It not only supports the learning of…

Koklu, Oguz; Topcu, Abdullah – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
Pre-existing misconceptions are serious impediments to learning in mathematics. Means for detecting and correcting them have received much attention in the literature of educational research. Dynamic geometry software has been tried at different grade levels. This quasi-experimental study investigates the effect of Cabri-assisted instruction on…

Wilson, David C. – Mathematics Teacher, 2010
Graphing bivariate data in a scatter plot and drawing an approximate line of best fit for the data have become commonly recommended activities for middle school and high school students. The graphing calculator has provided a mechanism for students both to approximate a best-fit line and to calculate the best-fit line using a built-in option. Two…

Ozgun-Koca, S. Asli; Edwards, Thomas G. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2011
A common activity--having students collect data to measure the radius and circumference of circular objects--can be given a new twist. These data can be viewed virtually using technology. A dynamic geometry environment coupled with the powerful capabilities of a spreadsheet can greatly enhance student learning. The activity in this article…

Abanades, Miguel A.; Escribano, Jesus; Botana, Francisco – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2010
This article presents a web-based tool designed to compute certified equations and graphs of geometric loci specified using standard Dynamic Geometry Systems (DGS). Complementing the graphing abilities of the considered DGS, the equations of the loci produced by the application are remotely computed using symbolic algebraic techniques from the…

Browning, Christine A.; Garza-Kling, Gina – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2010
Middle school mathematics classrooms are changing. The curriculum has changed as well. Instead of an annual return to previously encountered topics, many middle school students encounter mathematics of a varying nature, characterized in "Principles and Standards for School Mathematics" (NCTM 2000) as the five Content Standards of Number and…

Eu, Leong Kwan – Malaysian Online Journal of Educational Technology, 2013
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of using the Geometer's Sketchpad software in the teaching and learning of graph functions among Form Six (Grade 12) students in a Malaysian secondary school. This study utilized a quasi-experimental design using intact group of students from two classes in an urban secondary school. Two…

Muschla, Judith A.; Muschla, Gary Robert; Muschla, Erin – Jossey-Bass, An Imprint of Wiley, 2012
The new Common Core State Standards for Mathematics have been formulated to provide students with instruction that will help them acquire a thorough knowledge of math at their grade level, which will in turn enable them to move on to higher mathematics with competence and confidence. "Hands-on Activities for Teaching the Common Core Math…
