Hord, Casey; Koenig, Kathleen; Zydney, Janet Mannheimer; DeJarnette, Anna F.; Gibboney, Daniel P., Jr.; McMillan, Leah A. – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
The researchers conducted a qualitative case study to describe the experiences of two seventh grade students with mild intellectual disability as they engaged in mathematics word problems involving proportions. The researchers analyzed student performance in large group settings and with individualized instruction to gain perspective on the…

Murphy, Carol – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2019
This paper reports on exploratory research into visual imagery in the learning of early mathematics. It aims to present a theoretical position in relation to perceptual perspectives of visual imagery. Students' visual imagery is explored in one example of a teacher's use of a protocol to encourage students to replicate dot patterns. This example…

Yeo, Lian-Ming; Tzeng, Yuh-Tsuen – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2019
Previous study has shown that tracing gesture may enhance the worked example-based learning by reducing cognitive load. The present study attempted to replicate the previous results and further explored the individual differences in tracing effect in relation to the learners' working-memory capacity. Specifically, 11- to 13-year-old students…

Matlen, Bryan J.; Richland, Lindsey E.; Klostermann, Ellen C.; Lyons, Emily – Grantee Submission, 2018
Mathematical problem solving typically involves manipulating visual symbols (e.g., equations), and prior research suggests that those symbols serve as diagrammatic representations (e.g., Landy & Goldstone, 2010). The present work examines the ways that instructional design of student engagement with these diagrammatic representations may…
