Castrillon-Velandia, Oscar; Hemandez-Rodriguez, Omar – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2019
This study focuses on how the combined use of graphic calculators with connectivity software promotes the social construction of mathematical knowledge. Particular emphasis is placed on the aspects related to design, development, implementation, and evaluation of didactic activities that integrate these technologies. We use Didactical Engineering…

Santos-Trigo, Manuel; Barrera-Mora, Fernando – PRIMUS, 2011
The study documents the extent to which high school teachers reflect on their need to revise and extend their mathematical and practicing knowledge. In this context, teachers worked on a set of tasks as a part of an inquiring community that promoted the use of different computational tools in problem solving approaches. Results indicated that the…

Mulekar, Madhuri S.; Siegel, Murray H. – Mathematics Teacher, 2009
If students are to understand inferential statistics successfully, they must have a profound understanding of the nature of the sampling distribution. Specifically, they must comprehend the determination of the expected value and standard error of a sampling distribution as well as the meaning of the central limit theorem. Many students in a high…

Browning, Christine A.; Garza-Kling, Gina; Sundling, Elizabeth Hill – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2007
Although the nature of the research varies, as do concepts of angle, research in general supports the supposition that angle is a complex idea, best understood from a variety of perspectives. In fact, the concept of angle tends to be threefold, consisting of: (1) the traditional, static notion of two rays meeting at a common vertex; (2) the idea…
