Olawoyin, Omomayowa; Kribs, Christopher M.; Joswick, Candace – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2023
The study of pivotal teaching moments (PTMs) offers significant insights into mathematics classroom interactions. PTMs are student-generated instances within a lesson that provide opportunities for teachers to modify planned instruction (Stockero & Van Zoest, 2013). Given the importance of interactions and discourse in students' mathematical…

Gearing, Nicole V.; Hart, Lynn C. – European Journal of STEM Education, 2019
Communicating their thinking in mathematics is challenging for young children. This research studied the change in six-year old students' oral and written solution explanations before and after six problem-based mathematics lessons that focused on developing conceptual understanding of adding or subtracting a 2-digit number and a multiple of ten.…

Staats, Susan – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2017
This paper uses multimodal discourse analysis to show that discursive form, in addition to words, gestures and sound dimensions of speech, is an important linguistic resource for expressing mathematical meaning. During a collaborative task, a student spoke an insight about an algebraic property five times over a few minutes, in slightly different…

Ghadirian, Hajar; Salehi, Keyvan; Ayub, Ahmad Fauzi Mohd – International Journal of E-Learning & Distance Education, 2018
Peer moderation has been used as a beneficial strategy in asynchronous online discussions to assist student learning performance. However, most studies in peer-moderated asynchronous online discussions (PMAOD) have focused only on learning effectiveness and perceptions of students rather than on students' knowledge dimensions and cognitive…
