Odd Tore Kaufmann; Marianne Maugesten; Tamsin Meaney – Journal of Mathematics Teacher Education, 2024
As has been the case in many countries around the world, the new Norwegian curriculum from 2020 included programming as part of mathematics education. However, little is known about how prospective teachers perceive this addition in regard to their developing professional identities. When the results from an electronic survey of 394 prospective…

Kilhamn, C.; Bråting, K.; Helenius, O.; Mason, J. – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2022
In this paper we consider implications of the current world-wide inclusion of computational thinking in relation to children's development of algebraic thinking. Little is known about how newly developed visual programming environments such as Scratch could enhance early algebra learning. The study is based on examples of programming activities…

Sinclair, Nathalie; Patterson, Margaret – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2018
The goal of this paper is to explore dynamic geometry environments (DGE) as a type of computer programming language. Using projects created by secondary students in one particular DGE, we analyse the extent to which the various aspects of computational thinking--including both ways of doing things and particular concepts--were evident in their…

Mallari – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2023
This paper discusses the distribution, through a digital datacasting framework, of mathematical resources for Grades 1 to 7 to two schools in a community in the Philippines. Among the mathematical resources made available, are mathematical applications (apps), which run on mobile technologies, that have been created to help in the mathematical…

Thoma, Athina; Iannone, Paola – International Journal of Research in Undergraduate Mathematics Education, 2022
This exploratory study reports on characteristics of proof production and proof writing observed in the work of first-year university students who took part in workshops on the theorem prover LEAN (https://leanprover.github.io). These workshops were voluntary and offered alongside a transition to proof module in a UK university. Through…

Elina Viro – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
The article focuses on study visits from the perspective of mathematical project work. Project work means a systematic organizing method of teaching that is based around a project. The research questions are the kinds of study visits students made, the meaning(s) of those visits, the mathematical content in the visits and how such study visits…

Plangg, Simon; Fuchs, Karl Josef – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
Using robot programming activities for learning in the classroom is one way to drive interest and engagement in the STEM field among students, especially girls. And this is afield that is particularly characterized by an underrepresentation of women. Accordingly, many countries are increasingly integrating activities related to computer science…

Bråting, Kajsa; Kilhamn, Cecilia – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2022
We characterize the recently included programming content in Swedish mathematics textbooks for elementary school. Especially, the connection between programming content and traditional mathematical content has been considered. The analytical tools used are based on the so-called 5E's, a theoretical framework of action, developed within the…

Chiang, Feng-kuang; Qin, Lian – Interactive Learning Environments, 2018
This study examined the effects of students' construction of computer-based educational games, using Scratch, on their mathematical equation-solving performance and their attitudes towards learning mathematics with the assistance of technology. A one-group, pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study design, was adopted. A total of 89 seventh grade…

Dayal, Vikram – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Epidemiological models have enhanced relevance because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this note, we emphasize visual tools that can be part of a learning module geared to teaching the SIR epidemiological model, suitable for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students in disciplines where the level of prior mathematical knowledge of…

Hidiroglu, Çaglar Naci – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2022
This study adopts a holistic single-case design to explain the task design processes of mathematics student teachers (MSTs) regarding History, Theory, Technology, and Modeling (HTTM). A criterion sampling method was used to select nine MSTs who had successfully completed "algorithms and programming" course. Video analyses, written answer…

Sangwin, Christopher J.; O'Toole, Claire – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
This paper reports a study which investigated the extent to which undergraduate mathematics students in the United Kingdom are currently taught to programme a computer as a core part of their mathematics degree programme. We undertook an online survey, with significant follow-up correspondence, to gather data on current curricula and received…

Kaufmann, Odd Tore; Stenseth, Børre – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This article attempts to identify the kind of arguments that lower secondary school-level pupils use when they apply programming to solve a mathematical problem. By analyzing the data from one group of three pupils working together with Processing (Processing is a Java based tool primarily to learn programme visual effects supported and…

Hemer, David – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2020
This paper describes an investigation looking at the underlying mathematics of poker machines. The aim of the investigation is for students to get an appreciation of how poker machines are designed to ensure that in the long-term players will inevitably lose when playing. The first part of this paper describes how students can model a simple poker…
