Huiyan Ye; Oi-Lam Ng; Zhihao Cui – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) has received much attention in mathematics education in recent years, and researchers have begun to experiment with the integration of CT into mathematics education to promote students' CT and mathematical thinking (MT) development. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence and new theoretical perspectives on the…

Faizah, Siti; Nusantara, Toto; Sudirman; Rahardi, Rustanto – Online Submission, 2022
Thinking is a tool to construct knowledge in learning mathematics. However, some college students have not been fully aware of the importance of constructing their knowledge. Therefore, this study aims to explore students' thinking processes in completing mathematical proofs through assimilation and accommodation schemes. This research was…

Colonnese, Madelyn W.; Casto, Amanda R. – Mathematics Teacher Education and Development, 2023
Mathematical writing is one way for primary students to communicate their mathematical thinking. Research in the field of writing has shown that to become an effective teacher of writing, preservice teachers must have experience engaging in the kinds of writing given to their students. The study reported in this paper explored how 27 preservice…

Niehues, Wenke; Kisbu-Sakarya, Yasemin; Selcuk, Bilge – Early Education and Development, 2021
Research Findings: Children differ in their ability to adapt to elementary school. Yet, the family factors that foster a successful transition to elementary school are less well understood. Family cohesion as an indicator of a positive emotional climate within families may play an important role for children's ability to adapt to school. Thus,…

Tambunan, Hardi – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2018
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of heuristic strategy on students' mathematical abilities in high order thinking. This descriptive research uses a correlation design. The population of this study were all second-grade public and private high school students representing schools from eight districts in North Sumatra province,…

Singh, Parmjit; Hoon, Teoh Sian; Rasid, Nor Syazwani; Nasir, Nurul Akmal Md; Han, Cheong Tau; Rahman, Norziah Abdul – Asian Journal of University Education, 2016
Studies related to school mathematics have shown that students who scored well on standardized tests often are unable to successfully use memorized facts and formulae in real-life application outside the classroom. The outcome of TIMSS and PISA studies further emphasizes the importance of mathematics teaching and learning in the Malaysian…

Riehl, Suzanne M.; Steinthorsdottir, Olof Bjorg – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2014
Ratio, rate, and proportion are central ideas in the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for middle-grades mathematics (CCSSI 2010). These ideas closely connect to themes in earlier grades (pattern building, multiplicative reasoning, rational number concepts) and are the foundation for understanding linear functions as well as many high school…

Legnard, Danielle; Austin, Susan – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2014
The Math Promise is a contract that family members make with one another. They commit to spending mathematical time together; getting to know each other's mathematical thinking and understanding; and finding time to play math games, solve problems, and notice mathematics in their daily lives. Whether parents and children are cooking in the…

Rohana – Journal of Education and Practice, 2015
This study aims to examine the enhancement of mathematical reasoning ability through reflective learning. This study used quasi-experimental method with nonequivalent pretest and posttest control group design. The subject of this study were students of Mathematics Education Program in one of private universities in Palembang, South Sumatera,…

Scataglini-Belghitar, Giovanna; Mason, John – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2012
During a sequence of tutorials conducted by the first author, it became evident that students were not seeing how to apply the theorem concerning a continuous function on a closed and bounded interval attaining its extreme values in situations in which it is necessary first to construct the closed and bounded interval by reasoning about properties…

Rathouz, Margaret – Teaching Children Mathematics, 2011
Children are naturally curious and want to make sense of their world. To implement mathematical tasks that nurture children's desire to reason, it is valuable for teachers to have experienced for themselves comparable tasks and learning environments (Ball and Bass 2000). In this article, the author describes three strategies to facilitate…

Flores, Alfinio; Priewe, Melina D. – Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School, 2013
This article describes how teachers address issues and tensions that students meet in learning division of fractions. First, students must make sense of division of fractions on their own by working individually and in small groups, using concrete or pictorial representations, inventing their own processes, and presenting and justifying their…

Weber, Keith; Mejia-Ramos, Juan Pablo – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2011
In this paper, we report a study in which nine research mathematicians were interviewed with regard to the goals guiding their reading of published proofs and the type of reasoning they use to reach these goals. Using the data from this study as well as data from a separate study (Weber, "Journal for Research in Mathematics Education" 39:431-459,…

Heirdsfield, Ann Margaret – Young Children, 2011
Mental computation--that is, calculating in the head--is a relatively new topic in mathematics curricula for primary-age children. It is an important skill because it enables children to learn more deeply how numbers work, make decisions about procedures, and create strategies for calculating, thus promoting number sense--a well-developed…
