Lukáš Vízek; Libuše Samková; Jon R. Star – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
This contribution focuses on reasoning about quadrilaterals provided by lower secondary school students when working with pre-prepared dynamic constructions. On this topic, we present an exploratory empirical qualitative study carried out within a GeoGebra Classroom environment, and our diagnostic instrument consists of a set of dynamic…

Sam Ford; Mohamed Allali – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
Studies across a variety of educational fields have shown the efficacy of feedback on student performance and learning. Web-based homework is a common feature of secondary and collegiate mathematics courses to provide such feedback. While web-based homework provides often instantaneous feedback to students as they complete assignments, the…

Somayeh Timarchi – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2023
This paper describes a study for teaching number system in a computer arithmetic course and addresses the existing gap in the current course by focusing on the characteristics of applications. A redundant residue number system (RRNS) is an efficient and innovative number system that inherits the interesting properties of both residue number system…

Ralph, Michael – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
Synthesis and diffusion of a pigment molecule can be simulated using deterministic equations in computer software. These lesson materials describe how tiger stripes emerge from manipulations in this code, and how students can engage in mathematical inquiry by exploring these reaction-diffusion equations.

Wares, Arsalan – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The purpose of this note is to introduce two challenging problems in geometry that were inspired by some well-known problems in high school geometry. These problems can be explored in the dynamic geometry environments of computer construction programmes.

Stupel, Moshe; Weissman, Shula; Sigler, Avi – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
This paper presents research into closed orbits parallel to quadrilaterals inscribed in various geometric shapes that can be represented by mathematical functions: straight lines, circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas. Mathematical proofs have been given for the existence of an infinite number of parallel orbits for each of these shapes.…

Parrish, Christopher W.; Martin, W. Gary – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
The purpose of this study was to determine if the MathTwitterBlogosphere (MTBoS), an online community of practice, provides opportunities for mathematics educators to learn about the knowledge and conceptions that support the effective use of cognitively demanding tasks, including mathematical knowledge for teaching, visions of high-quality…
