Gonzalez-Martin, Alejandro S.; Nardi, Elena; Biza, Irene – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2011
The study we report here examines parts of what Chevallard calls the "institutional" dimension of the students' learning experience of a relatively under-researched, yet crucial, concept in Analysis, the concept of infinite series. In particular, we examine how the concept is introduced to students in texts and in teaching practice. To…

Zazkis, Rina; And Others – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1996
College students (n=32) in their first abstract algebra course were asked to list elements and find the product of 2 elements in the dihedral group D4. Most students found solutions using a combination of visual approaches and analytic strategies. Proposes an alternative model, the Visualizer/Analyzer model, which assumes visualization and…

Eastman, Phillip M.; Salhab, Mohammed – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1978
One group of elementary education majors received an algebraic instructional treatment of a unit on linear absolute value equations while another received a geometric treatment. The hypothesis of an aptitude-by-treatment interaction was statistically confirmed. (MN)

Battista, Michael – Journal of Educational Research, 1981
The nature of the aptitude-treatment interaction between spatial visualization ability and instructional treatment in mathematics was investigated. No significant positive correlation was observed between the aptitude measures (spatial visualization test) and the outcome measures (algebra structures exam). (CJ)

Orey, Michael A.; Nelson, Wayne A. – 1994
Methods are described for visualizing and characterizing user interactions with hypermedia systems; they have been found to be effective in several developmental and evaluation studies. Analyzing the patterns of user interaction makes it possible to evaluate the design and usefulness of such systems. Path algebras can be used to describe and…
