Kouki, Rahim; Griffiths, Barry J. – African Journal of Research in Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
In this article we present the results of an investigation into semiotic aspects of an introductory differential equations class from two countries. In order to perform a comparative analysis, students in the USA and Tunisia were given common questions on their midterm exams that examined analytical and graphical competencies. Our results indicate…

Rodríguez-Nieto, Camilo Andrés; Font, Vicenç; Rodríguez-Vásquez, Flor Monserrat; Pino-Fan, Luis Roberto – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2023
An onto-semiotic analysis of the mathematical connections established by one in-service mathematics teachers and university students when solving a problem about launching a projectile using the derivative was carried out. Theoretically, this research was based on the articulation between the Extended Theory of Mathematical Connections and the…

Viseu, Floriano; Pires, Ana Luísa; Menezes, Luís; Costa, Ana Maria – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2021
The use of different registers to represent mathematical concepts enhances understanding. For example, rational numbers can assume pictorial, symbolic and natural language representations and this kind of change improves learning. Based on these assumptions, a teaching experiment for the learning of rational numbers by 2nd grade students was…

Ubah, Ifunanya; Bansilal, Sarah – Pythagoras, 2019
Many pre-service mathematics teachers in South Africa are apprehensive about the content of Euclidean geometry, because they did not study Euclidean geometry in high school but will be expected to teach the content when they start their teaching career. This article reports on a study that explored the role of semiotic representations in…
