Fielding, Jill; Makar, Katie – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2022
Conceptual challenge is often considered a necessary ingredient for promoting deep learning in an inquiry-based environment. However, challenge alone does not support conceptual development. In this paper, we draw on complexity theory as a theoretical lens to explore how a primary teacher facilitated students' conceptual change through repeated…

Noll, Jennifer; Kirin, Dana; Clement, Kit; Dolor, Jason – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2023
Using simulation approaches when conducting randomization tests for comparing two groups in the context of experimental studies has been promoted as a beneficial approach for supporting student learning of statistical inference. Many researchers have suggested that the data production process in simulations for the randomization test intuitively…

Sánchez Sánchez, Ernesto; García Rios, Víctor N.; Silvestre Castro, Eleazar; Licea, Guadalupe Carrasco – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2020
In this paper, we address the following questions: What misconceptions do high school students exhibit in their first encounter with significance test problems through a repeated sampling approach? Which theory or framework could explain the presence and features of such patterns? With brief prior instruction on the use of Fathom software to…
