Caro, Diana García; García, Carlos Valenzuela; Sanz, María T.; González, María S. García – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
This paper describes the conceptions about complex numbers that a group of university students has, these were built from the application of an activity sequence centered on these numbers. This sequence is based on the APOS theory, some aspects of semiotic representation theory, and the use of digital technology. Particularly, both the general…

Huang, Hsin-Mei E.; Wu, Hsin-Yueh – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2019
This research examined the effects of two instructional treatments on training performance in solid volume measurement and potential effects on solving capacity and displaced volume problems by two related studies. Fifty-three fifth-graders from a public elementary school in Taipei, Taiwan, participated. In the Phase 1 study, the children (n = 27)…

Yurniwati – Journal of Research and Advances in Mathematics Education, 2018
In mathematics, there is conceptual and procedural knowledge. Conceptual knowledge is about ideas or mathematics understanding but procedural knowledge is about procedure to solve mathematics problems. Multisensory approach involve many senses like kinaesthetic, visual and auditory to gain knowledge. This research aims to find information about…

Seah, Rebecca; Horne, Marj; Berenger, Adrian – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2016
This study surveyed and analysed four secondary school students' writing about a square. Sfard's discursive approach to understanding mathematical discourse was used to analyse the responses collected from 214 Australian secondary school students. The results showed that geometric knowledge was developed experientially and not developmentally.…

Gadanidis, George; Cendros, Rosa; Floyd, Lisa; Namukasa, Immaculate – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2017
As computational thinking (CT) is increasing in focus in K-12 education, it is important to consider how teacher education programs may better prepare teacher candidates (TCs). Previous studies have found that TCs do not always have a firm understanding of what CT involves, and they might not have clear ideas about how to develop CT in their…

Young-Loveridge, Jenny; Bicknell, Brenda – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2016
This paper outlines a framework to explain the early development of place-value understanding based on an analysis of data from 84 five- to seven-year-old children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The children were assessed individually on number knowledge tasks (recalled facts, subitizing, counting, place-value understanding) and…

Chinnappan, Mohan; White, Bruce – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2015
That the quality of teachers' knowledge has direct impact on students' engagement and learning outcomes in mathematics is now well established. But questions about the nature of this knowledge and how to characterise that knowledge are important for mathematics educators. In the present study, we examine a strand of "Specialised Content…

Applebaum, Mark; Leikin, Roza – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2014
This study is based on our belief that mathematics should be challenging in any classroom and that mathematical challenge is among the central factors that determine the quality of mathematics lessons. Choosing challenging mathematical problem for the students is central in teachers' work while their conception of mathematical challenge can…
