In this article, we state an interesting geometric conservation property between the three angle bisectors of three similar right triangles and provide a proof without words for its justification. A GeoGebra applet is also presented to help with the understanding of the progression of the proof from inductive to deductive stage.

Hands-on experiments with overturning some prisms (partially filled with water) lead students to a conjecture which can be confirmed by using a 3D geometry programme and reinterpreting the process of "overturning of a prism" in an appropriate way. But such confirmations are not a proof and particularly cannot answer the question…

Understanding part-whole relations is crucial in early mathematics education. However, both analogue and digital learning environments often lack systematic approaches to foster part-whole understanding. With the rising popularity of educational apps, it is essential to evaluate how they implement learning of part-whole relations. Accordingly,…

Several studies on student's understanding of the concept of the tangent line agree that the difficulties students have when dealing with lines tangent to curves at inflection points or tangent lines that have more than one point in common with the curve are due to a misconception of tangency that is limited to the geometric relationship between…

As new technological developments continue to change the educational landscape, it is not an exception in the area of proof and proving. This classroom note introduces the use of one of the trending proofs assistants -- the Lean theorem prover. We first provide a technical account of Lean, then exemplify Lean proofs in propositional logic, number…

In this paper, we explore how the typical second year undergraduate topic of matrix diagonalisation can be applied to solve a geometric problem which arises frequently in Vector Calculus: to find the curve of intersection of a plane and a surface. We use GeoGebra, which offers a cost-free and dynamic interface, to explore a specific variant of…

Knowing functions and functional thinking have recently moved from just knowledge for older students to incorporating younger students, and functional thinking has been identified as one of the core competencies for algebra. Although it is significant for mathematical understanding, there is no unified view of functional thinking and how different…

Researchers have increasingly utilized artificial intelligence to automatically analyze classroom dialogue, aiming to provide timely feedback to teachers due to its educational significance. However, traditional machine learning and deep learning models face challenges, such as limited performance and lack of generalizability, across various…

While GeoGebra applets have been extensively investigated in learning environments, few studies have addressed the interactive GeoGebra applets in an e-book-based learning environment. This study aims to compare the effects of the e-book created with interactive GeoGebra applets on students' learning achievement and motivation. The sample of the…

I explore some facts about the area, position, etc. of the Steiner ellipse using GeoGebra and numerical analysis. Students can use these for mathematical inquiry.

The aim of this study is to show how the GeoGebra software-supported collaborative learning environment contributes to a group of students using multiple representations and reaching generalisations while solving problems collectively. Blending individual and collaborative learning activities were carried out with a learning method called ACODESA…

This study investigates the impact of GeoGebra, a dynamic, accessible, and easy-to-use mathematics software, on student confidence and perceptions of its helpfulness in the context of Calculus III courses. A quasi-experimental design was employed to compare four sections of Calculus III, with two sections integrating GeoGebra for in-class…

Prior work has developed a range of automated measures ("detectors") of student self-regulation and engagement from student log data. These measures have been successfully used to make discoveries about student learning. Here, we extend this line of research to an underexplored aspect of self-regulation: students' decisions about when to…

Mathematical proof, often regarded as the heart of mathematics, is essential for interconnected mathematical knowledge. However, proof-writing skills do not develop inherently. Effective learning environments are vital for university students to enhance these skills. This study investigates the impact of the ISMAT model on pre-service teachers'…

This study aims to examine the mathematical reasoning and proof processes of gifted students within the framework of Toulmin's Argumentation Model. Grounded in the Rich Teaching Model, the instructional design included seven differentiated lesson plans. The research was conducted with two 9th-grade students in a Science and Art Centre over 20…
