Sidenvall, Johan; Lithner, Johan; Jäder, Jonas – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2015
This study reports on an analysis of students' textbook task-solving in Swedish upper secondary school. The relation between types of mathematical reasoning required, used, and the rate of correct task solutions were studied. Rote learning and superficial reasoning were common, and 80% of all attempted tasks were correctly solved using such…
