This study aims to explore in-service preschool teachers' attitudes towards and beliefs about geometry and its teaching and to investigate their knowledge of shapes and solids. The study uses a mixed descriptive approach employing quantitative and qualitative research methods. Thirty-four Israeli preschool teachers of children aged 3-6 from 34…

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…

Yao, Xiangquan; Manouchehri, Azita – Education Sciences, 2020
The relationship between teacher interventions and students' mathematical thinking has been the subject of inquiry for quite some time. Using the Pirie-Kieren theory for dynamic growth in mathematical understanding, this study documents teacher interventions that support students' growth toward developing a general understanding of a mathematical…

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)…

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.…

Peer reviewedCarroll, William M. – School Science and Mathematics, 1998
Presents the University of Chicago School Mathematics Project's (UCMSP) Every Day Mathematics Program as one current reform-based elementary curriculum incorporating geometry throughout the K-6 curriculum, with an emphasis on hands-on and problem-solving activities. Measures the longitudinal effects of such an approach. (Author/CCM)

Sanchez, Ernesto; Sacristan, Ana Isabel – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
We present results from a study which investigated the influence of dynamic geometry-based activities in the development of proving skills (in geometry) in high-school students (15-16 years of age). After a 12-week course on Cabri and the writing of conjectures and proofs, students were asked to write and prove conjectures based on their…
