Mathematical representation includes the process of transforming problems or ideas into new forms, including changing pictures or physical models into symbols, words, or sentences that can facilitate students in solving mathematical problems. Pythagorean Theorem material is widely used in analytic geometry, so this material becomes important for…

Aim/Purpose: This paper addresses the effectiveness of flipped learning and teaching as a didactic innovation in math instruction. We are interested in comparing traditional and flipped learning and teaching in terms of acquired knowledge and retention and students' perceptions of flipped learning and teaching. Background: Traditional lessons, in…

The paper focuses on students' understanding of the concepts of axial and central symmetries in a plane. Attention is paid to whether students of various ages identify a non-model of an axially symmetrical figure, know that a line segment has two axes of symmetry and a circle has an infinite number of symmetry axes, and are able to construct an…

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…
