Direct linkCandace Walkington; Mitchell J. Nathan; Min Wang; Kelsey Schenck – Grantee Submission, 2022
Theories of grounded and embodied cognition offer a range of accounts of how reasoning and body-based processes are related to each other. To advance theories of grounded and embodied cognition, we explore the "cognitive relevance" of particular body states to associated math concepts. We test competing models of action-cognition…

Andika, Fajar; Pramudya, Ikrar; Subanti, Sri – International Online Journal of Education and Teaching, 2020
Geometry subject that prosecute students to comprehend abstracts things is one of the causes of students' difficulties in mathematics learning. This study aims to determine the effect of Problem Posing and Problem Solving learning models with the Scientific Approach to students' adaptive reasoning on plane figure materials. It was conducted at the…

Guncaga, Ján; Tkacik, Štefan; Žilková, Katarína – European Journal of Contemporary Education, 2017
Misconceptions in geometry are an essential problem in the understanding of geometric terms by primary and pre-primary aged children. Present research shows some misconceptions in geometry demonstrated in the understanding of circles, squares, triangles and oblongs for children in the last year of kindergarten and pupils in the last year of…

Dawkins, Paul Christian – For the Learning of Mathematics, 2012
Weber and Alcock's (2004, 2009) syntactic/semantic framework provides a useful means of delineating two basic categories of proof-oriented activity. They define their dichotomy using Goldin's (1998) theory of representation systems. In this paper, I intend to clarify the framework by providing criteria for classifying student reasoning into…
