Hao Guan; Jing Li; Yongsheng Rao; Ruxian Chen; Zhangtao Xu – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Mathematical inquiry involving hands-on activities has received increasing attention in mathematics education. Besides various customized physical teaching aids, subject-specific information technology, such as Dynamic Geometry System (DGS), finds extensive use in mathematical inquiry activities. However, effects of DGS and physical manipulatives…

Sibiya, Mandlenkosi Richard – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2020
The effect of using Geoboards in teaching Euclidean geometry in Grade 11 mathematics learners is described. A qualitative research design was adopted in the study. This design was preferred as it provides the conceptual understanding of the teaching methods of the teachers. The participants were taught Euclidean Geometry with the use of Geoboard…

McCormick, Kelly K.; Twitchell, Guinevere – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2017
Young children thrive in classrooms that allow them to explore and discover their environment and interests and also support them in this learning. Because children learn best when they are interested and excited, early-childhood educators should offer children play-based, integrated mathematical experiences (NRC 2009). In this article, the…

Cherif, Abour H.; Gialamas, Stefanos; Stamati, Angeliki – Journal of Education and Practice, 2017
Every object we think of or encounter, whether a natural or human-made, has a regular or irregular shape. In its own intrinsic conceptual design, it has elements of mathematics, science, engineering, and arts, etc., which are part of the object's geometric shape, form and structure. Geometry is not only an important part of mathematics, but it is…

Patkin, Dorit – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2015
Acquaintance with various ways of inculcating concepts in any studied area of knowledge is one of teachers' duties, particularly mathematics teachers. Studies indicate errors and difficulties when inculcating concepts in mathematics and learning them. Many concepts have different meanings in different contexts. Hence, teachers should deal with the…
