Montero-Moguel, Luis E.; Vargas-Alejo, Verónica; Carmona Domínguez, Guadalupe – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
This article describes the results of an investigation based on a Models and Modeling Perspective [MMP]. We present the evolution of the models built by university students when solving a model development sequence designed to promote their learning of the exponential function. As a result, we observed that students' thinking was modified,…

Pérez Martínez, Helen Mariel; Cuevas-Vallejo, Carlos A.; Islas Ortiz, Erasmo; Orozco-Santiago, José – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2022
In this paper, we present the development of an investigation on the promotion of covariational reasoning in high school students (14-15 years old) in Mexico. The study consists of designing and applying a sequence of didactic activities that simulate a real situation virtually. The activities are organized through a Hypothetical Learning…

Solares Rojas, Armando; Preciado Babb, Armando Paulino; Peña, Fredy; Ortiz, Andrea; Rosas, Marisol Sandova; Velasco, Remedios Soriano; Vázquez, Vicente Carrión; Fuentes, Mauricio Farrugia – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
Throughout the years, Mathematical Modeling has gained international attention, not only in research but also in the development of curricula and its applications in the classroom. However, systematic literary surveys are scarce. In this paper, we present some findings from a survey of 485 international publications related to different aspects of…

Ortega, Minerva Martínez; Mejia Velasco, Hugo R.; Martínez, María De Los Angeles – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
In this research we discuss relating the description of certain harmonic phenomena, with models that represent them, with the goal of promoting the understanding of the period, the frequency, and the amplitude of the trigonometric functions, particularly referring to sinusoidal functions; in this way the frontier between sinusoidal functions and…
