Haciomeroglu, Erhan Selcuk – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2015
The present study sought to design calculus tasks to determine students' preference for visual or analytic processing as well as examine the role of preferred mode of processing in calculus performance and its relationship to spatial ability and verbal-logical reasoning ability. Data were collected from 150 high school students who were enrolled…

Kobayashi, Y. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2008
This article uses diagrams that help the observer see how solutions of the wave equation and heat conduction equation are obtained. The analytical approach cannot necessarily show the mechanisms of the key to the solution without transforming the differential equation into a more convenient form by separation of variables. The visual clues based…
