Karen Zwanch; Brooke Mullins – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
To understand the ways that manipulatives might support changes in students' reasoning about algebraic generalizations, a constructivist teaching experiment was conducted with two sixth-grade students. The students interpreted numerical situations with units of one and could construct units of units in mental activity. Initially, the students'…

Brian Darrow Jr. – Journal of Mathematics Education at Teachers College, 2023
Arithmetic was the first mathematical subject to enter the school curriculum in the United States in a formalized manner. Until the first quarter of the nineteenth century, the prevailing pedagogy of this subject revolved around the tenets of mental discipline theory and the rules method of teaching, which valued memorization and repetitive drill…

Bustamante, Andres S.; Begolli, Kreshnik Nasi; Alvarez-Vargas, Daniela; Bailey, Drew H.; Richland, Lindsey Engle – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
This study tested a novel approach to capitalizing on the benefits of play for informal math learning. Two experiments evaluated a platform called "Fraction Ball," that provides an embodied, playful, and physically active learning experience by modifying the lines on a basketball court to support rational number learning. In the Pilot…

Wessman-Enzinger, Nicole M. – Research in Mathematics Education, 2019
Mathematics education researchers have long pursued--and many still pursue--an ideal instructional model for operations on integers. In this chapter, I argue that such a pursuit may be futile. Additionally, I highlight that ideas of relativity have been overlooked; and, I contend that current uses of translation within current integer…

Lindsay Vance; Joanne Caniglia; Michelle Meadows – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2023
Despite the research regarding the importance of peer review and feedback in pre-service special education teachers, there exists a gap in teaching complex mathematical concepts such as fractional operations. This study sought to address this gap by investigating how pre-service teachers can effectively appraise and revise peer-generated teaching…

Lai, Yvonne; Carlson, Mary Alice; Heaton, Ruth M. – Advances in STEM Education, 2018
Skillful teaching involves seeing mathematics in ways that are coherent and making decisions during planning and teaching. In particular, teaching requires making decisions about what connections to make, when to make them, and how students might make them. We posit that it is important for teachers and teacher educators to understand the…
