In this article, we state an interesting geometric conservation property between the three angle bisectors of three similar right triangles and provide a proof without words for its justification. A GeoGebra applet is also presented to help with the understanding of the progression of the proof from inductive to deductive stage.

The paper focuses exclusively on the famous geometry lesson given by Socrates to the slave-boy in Plato's Meno, providing an in-depth analysis that emphasizes the pedagogical aspects of the lesson. This approach allows for an examination of the lesson that teachers, educators and students alike--regardless of their interest in the philosophical…

Transitioning from material to theoretical geometry is often considered a significant challenge in compulsory education. Over the last twenty years, research rooted in the Theory of Didactical Situations (TDS) has explored how material geometry can support the teaching and learning of theoretical geometry, promoting continuity in teaching. These…

This report details a set of three tasks used in an exploratory study of pre-service teachers' (PSTs) experiences of task design for the mathematics classroom. The three tasks, which I call the "Orange Dot Tasks," were constructed in Desmos, a dynamic geometry environment (DGE), and participants engaged each task through manipulating…

Strategies are proposed that promote use of an Integrated Applied Mathematics (IAM) approach to enhance teaching of advanced problem-solving and analysis skills. Three scenarios of 1-dimensional transport processes are presented that support using Error Function analyses when considering short time/small penetration depths in finite geometries.…

Although research highlights the importance of analyzing the geometric work of teachers, there are few validated instruments in this line. This study presents the processes of design and validation of a forced-choice questionnaire that allows the characterization, from a theoretical basis, of how geometry teachers organize their teaching practice.…

Augmented Reality (AR) technologies allow for holograms to be layered over the real-world, "augmenting" human vision by adding technical information or illustrations onto 3D space. Although AR-based applications are showing positive effects in many systematic reviews and meta-analyses, well-designed, rigorous studies with strong control…

Geometry education is an important aspect of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, but it is often overlooked in K-12 education in the United States. Chunking strategy reduces the cognitive load demanded in the processing of information, and it has been applied as a testing accommodation for high school students with…

Teaching diverse student populations effectively requires implementing thoughtfully planned and flexible rich tasks and understanding a community's strengths so students can make meaningful connections to mathematics. Using a culturally relevant teaching approach can develop appropriate geometry vocabulary to support students in articulating their…

Mathematical concepts have been a consensus goal for decades, yet there is little consensus on what is meant by the terms "mathematical concept" and "mathematical understanding." This article attempts to discuss these terms in a way that can be of practical use to teachers. Greater clarity on "mathematical concept"…

On the basis of a substantial, robust, and well-replicated cognitive science research literature, interleaving has been recommended across a range of professional pedagogical works as an evidence-based strategy for mathematics teachers. This report first notes the conflation of interleaving and spacing effects underpinning those recommendations…

This study aims to test the effectiveness of GeoGebra Augmented Reality in improving students' mathematical problem-solving skills. The method used is a quasi-experiment with a posttest-only control group design. The research population is students of the Mathematics Education Study Program at a private university in Indonesia, with a sample of 32…

This study aimed to investigate research trends regarding the use of GeoGebra in educational research through bibliometric analysis. 301 articles published in the Web of Science database between 2009 and 2023 were included in the research. Web of Science database and VOSviewer program were used during bibliometric analysis. Performance analysis…

For both first-year teachers and veterans, closing a lesson and assessing whether students met learning goals is a persistent challenge. This article explores how teachers using demanding, discourse-rich tasks can make informed decisions about when to move on in a lesson. Specifically, the author considers a "launch-explore-share and…

This study explores indigenous pedagogical methods for teaching geometry in three secondary schools within the Kalomo District of Zambia. The study addresses three primary objectives: (1) exploring the utilization of Indigenous pedagogical methods in teaching geometry, (2) assessing the impact of integrating traditional knowledge on student…
