This study investigates the interplay between student reasoning and instructional strategies in trigonometry education. A qualitative case study was conducted to examine how Grade 10 students employ various reasoning approaches -- deductive, inductive, abductive, analogical, and algorithmic -- when solving trigonometry problems. Each approach…

This paper provides some insights into the use of example-generating tasks in the design of a technology-rich learning environment to enhance students' mathematical thinking. The paper reports on an early stage of a design-based research project concerning the design of tasks and associated feedback utilising the affordances provided by a combined…
