Bini, Giulia; Robutti, Ornella; Bikner-Ahsbahs, Angelika – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Mathematical memes are an Internet phenomenon with an epistemic potential noteworthy for the teaching and learning of mathematics. The aim of this paper is to conceptualize this phenomenon on an empirical base, elucidating its educational potential. To pursue this goal, a two-year ethnographic research study has been conducted in a selection of…

Campbell, Anita; Craig, Tracy; Collier-Reed, Brandon – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2020
The social psychology theory of fixed and growth mindsets offers one reason for observed underachievement in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), particularly for students who have previously excelled in these disciplines. Fixed mindset beliefs are linked to behaviours that can lead to avoiding challenges and reduced learning,…

Web-Based Tools for Modelling and Analysis of Multivariate Data: California Ozone Pollution Activity
Dinov, Ivo D.; Christou, Nicolas – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2011
This article presents a hands-on web-based activity motivated by the relation between human health and ozone pollution in California. This case study is based on multivariate data collected monthly at 20 locations in California between 1980 and 2006. Several strategies and tools for data interrogation and exploratory data analysis, model fitting…
