Rudy Baez; Henry Sanchez; Duli Pllana – Online Submission, 2024
High school math projects center on solving real-world examples in a wide variety of situations that require a creative skill set. Creativity in high school mathematics takes place in a subtle form. In contrast, creativity presents itself conspicuously in art. Therefore, this paper will explore the utilization of polynomial equations in drawing…

Kathryn Early; Amiee Sanders; W. Gary Martin – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Vectors have important applications both within and outside mathematics, but the concept of vectors is often taught to students in a less-than-engaging way, leading to students feeling inadequate and frustrated. This article describes the use of a mathematical microworld, "Driving with Vectors," to explore vectors using equitable…

Rosa Isela González-Polo; Apolo Castaneda – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2024
This article aims to analyze the process of the progressive mathematization of the concept of the function by secondary school students through the resolution of a free fall situation. A free-fall mathematical situation was designed and experimented using the Tracker software to obtain movement data. Worksheets and conversations were collected…

Ma. Louise Antonette N. De Las Peñas; Mark Anthony C. Tolentino; Maria Alva Q. Aberin; Agnes D. Garciano; Juan Carlo F. Mallari; Jumela F. Sarmiento; Debbie Marie B. Verzosa – International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2024
This paper discusses two "GeoGebra" applets, "Radical" and "Parabola," that are designed to strengthen the conceptual understanding of specific topics in algebra. The design and pedagogical basis of the applets are presented. The integration of the applets in teaching Grade 9 mathematics in a partner high school in…

Mollakuqe, Vesa; Rexhepi, Shpetim; Iseni, Egzona – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2021
The most influential books on geometry are those of Euclid called "Elements". In our century, in addition to classical learning, various interactive software are used in teaching geometry. Among them, we can mention GeoGebra. GeoGebra is an interactive math measurement program that consists of teaching and learning from elementary to…

Julie Eberhard Smith – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This study investigated the effect a computer intervention program has on student proficiency in the Algebra 1 End of Course (EOC) examination. This study utilized the intervention math program IXL Math, a computerized program that targets individual students' skill practice and supports students' need to accelerate mastery of Algebra 1 skills in…

Morgado Hernández, Cindy Nathalia; Sánchez, Ernesto Sánchez – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
We report the results of a study on informal covariate statistical reasoning conducted with 22 students (aged 16 and 18 years). We designed and implemented a task in a digital technology environment to introduce the line of best fit. The task design having elements that foresee misconceptions reported in the literature, and by focusing on four…

Gómez-Arciga, Adrián – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to analyze how the systematic use of GeoGebra influences the ways of reasoning of high school students when they incorporate it in the resolution of word problems. The study was carried out with a group of 20 students who were studying Mathematics I. The results show that the students appropriated resources from the…

Chenglu Li; Wanli Xing; Walter Leite – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
A discussion forum is a valuable tool to support student learning in online contexts. However, interactions in online discussion forums are sparse, leading to other issues such as low engagement and dropping out. Recent educational studies have examined the affordances of conversational agents (CA) powered by artificial intelligence (AI) to…

Leikin, Roza; Ovodenko, Regina – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2021
Advancement of self-regulation during complex problem solving and the development of strategical reasoning are among the central educational goals linked to 21st century skills. In this paper we introduce the notion of "Stepped Tasks", which are specially designed in Top-Down structure to achieve these goals in mathematics instruction.…

Meagher, Michael S.; Edwards, Michael Todd; Özgün-Koca, S. Asli – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Too often, high school algebra students encounter topics in a discrete, disconnected fashion. In the authors' first years of teaching, they found students to be adept at solving problems they were currently studying; for instance, they could solve quadratics during a quadratics unit. Too often, however, students struggled with that same content…

Mthethwa, Mthembeni; Bayaga, Anass; Bossé, Michael J.; Williams, Derek – South African Journal of Education, 2020
In the study reported on here, we investigated the effects of the use of dynamic geometry software (DGS) (i.e., GeoGebra) on learners' learning and a teacher's beliefs. The learners and teacher involved in the study were from a high-poverty, rural high school in South Africa. We compared grade 11 learners (N = 56) who used GeoGebra in the context…

Awortwe, Peter Kwamina; Nyatsikor, Maxwell Kwesi; Sarfo, Dorcas Osei – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2019
The study investigated the impact of using Autograph software as a tool in teaching and learning of quadratic functions on gender performance in core Mathematics for Senior High School (SHS) students in Ghana. Non-equivalent quasi-experimental design was used. The population was all second year students in the Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem (KEEA)…
