Weissman, Shula; Stupel, Moshe – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2021
We present an investigative activity that was set as part of a course of pre-service teachers of mathematics. The emphasis in the course was set on the importance of using the computerized technological tool for teaching the subject. The activity focused on investigating interesting geometrical conservation properties which are not known to the…

Stupel, Moshe; Weissman, Shula; Sigler, Avi – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This paper presents research into closed orbits parallel to quadrilaterals inscribed in various geometric shapes that can be represented by mathematical functions: straight lines, circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas. Mathematical proofs have been given for the existence of an infinite number of parallel orbits for each of these shapes.…

Wanda Nugroho Yanuarto; Elfis Suanto; Ira Hapsari; Aulia Nisa Khusnia – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
An Augmented Reality (AR) approach to creating a maths education app is the focus of this research. To turn the 2D floor plan into 3D objects, students will use their mobile devices to scan the cards. Students can have a better understanding of the 3D shape from various angles by interacting with virtual 3D items. Students can gain a deeper…

Du, Xuejiao; Zhang, Qi – Educational Psychology, 2019
Previous research has verified the benefits obtained when learners trace out worked examples with the index finger. Our study conducted two experiments to explore the reasons for this phenomenon and its generalizability. Experiment 1 compared the learning effects among tracing, non-tracing, and cueing methods. The cueing method was included to…

Kösa, Temel – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2016
The main purpose of this study is to determine the effects of using dynamic mathematics software on pre-service mathematics teachers' ability to infer the shape of a cross section of a three-dimensional solid, as well as on their spatial visualization skills. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a control group; the Purdue Spatial…

Oxman, Victor; Stupel, Moshe; Segal, Ruti – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2017
An important and interesting area in the study of triangle geometry is the related issue of extrema problems and inequalities. These problems play a significant role in the mathematics study program in high school. In tasks such as these, the difficulty level is high when one does not know in advance what the expected answer is. When one knows…

Stupel, Moshe; Segal, Ruti; Oxman, Victor – Australian Senior Mathematics Journal, 2016
In this article, we present investigative tasks that concern loci, which integrate the use of dynamic geometry software (DGS) with mathematics for proving the obtained figures. Additional conditions were added to the loci: ellipse, parabola and circle, which result in the emergence of new loci, similar in form to the original loci. The…

Ioannou, Panagiotis; Rodiou, Evdoxia; Iliou, Theodoros – Research in Pedagogy, 2017
The purpose of the present study was to compare the effects of two different teaching methods on students' comprehension in Mathematics: pictures with concurrent narration versus pictures with on-screen text, during teaching triangles, a lesson in Mathematics. Forty primary school children (boys and girls) selected to participate in this study.…

Kondratieva, Margo – Online Submission, 2013
This paper concerns teaching Euclidean geometry at the university level. It is based on the authors' personal experience. It describes a sequence of learning activities that combine geometrical constructions with explorations, observations, and explanations of facts related to the geometry of triangle. Within this approach, a discussion of the…
