Unprecedented investments are being made in mathematics tutoring interventions for K-12 students, but results from these interventions are not always promising. Traditional online or distance math tutoring can treat learning as disembodied, and not give learners access to embodied resources like gestures, movements, and actions. Virtual Reality…

I explore students' discourses in small groups working on mathematical problems using GeoGebra, focusing on the Cartesian connection between algebra and geometry. Specifically, the interest lies in what is internally persuasive for students in upper-secondary school (11th grade) with histories of low attainment. Three problem-solving episodes are…
