Tugba Uygun; Ali Sendur; Beyza Top; Kadriye Cosgun-Basegmez – Education and Information Technologies, 2025
Although augmented reality has become one of the most commonly used materials that support learning, especially in learning geometric concepts, it is avoided to be used in the lessons due to its complex structure. At that point, artificial intelligence working as a personal assistant in many fields can help us learn to produce our own model with…

Oxman, Victor; Stupel, Moshe – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
The present paper describes a dynamic investigation of polygons obtained by reflecting an arbitrary point located inside or outside a given polygon through the midpoints of its sides. The activity was based on hypothesizing on the shape of the reflection polygon that would be obtained, testing the hypotheses using dynamic software, and finding a…

St. Goar, Julia; Lai, Yvonne – PRIMUS, 2022
Undergraduate mathematics instructors are called by many current standards to promote prospective teachers' learning of geometry from a transformation perspective, marking a change from previous standards. The novelty of this situation means it is unclear what is involved in undergraduate learning and teaching of geometry from a transformation…

DeOrsey, Philip; von Renesse, Christine – PRIMUS, 2022
We introduce a ruler and compass activity designed around Islamic Geometry and provide a detailed description of the various components of the activity along with ideas for students exhibitions in both digital and print form. In our experience, this activity helps students to "buy into" actively doing mathematics, making it an ideal…

Lathiful Anwar; Cholis Sa’dijah; Tomi Listiawan; Anita Dewi Utami; Hutkemri Zulnaidi – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2025
Conjecture formulation is crucial to mathematics education. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate challenges prospective mathematics teachers (PMTs) encounter when using GeoGebra to formulate geometrical conjecture. A qualitative case study was conducted with an exploratory strategy to provide a complete comprehension of the occurrence. Six…

Soto, Hortensia – PRIMUS, 2022
In this paper, I share an activity that reinforces students' understanding of translations, reflections, and rotations via body movement. As a result of this activity, students gain a different perspective compared to previous explorations on paper, communicate mathematics, and visualize transformations as rigid motions on the plane. Furthermore,…

Holden, Lauren R.; Ko, Yi-Yin; Maxwell, Devon W.; Goodwin, Connor A.; Lee, Cheng-Hsien; Runge, Jennifer E.; Beeman, Elizabeth B. – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2022
Various studies have indicated that incorporating origami activities into a geometry lesson can promote elementary and middle school students' mathematical reasoning, enhance their ability to use precise mathematical terminologies, and increase their communication skills. The authors wondered if origami activities have a place in high school…

Nurnberger-Haag, Julie; Singh, Rashmi; Wernet, Jamie L. W.; Alexander, Anita N. – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2021
Some goals of mathematics teacher education include ensuring that pre-service teachers (PSTs) have strong content knowledge, the skill to anticipate and interpret student thinking, the ability to plan how to respond, and the ability to critically select resources for instruction. These goals are especially challenging for the topic of geometric…

Wares, Arsalan – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2021
The purpose of this article is to describe a couple of challenging mathematical problems that involve paper folding. These problem solving tasks can be used to foster geometric and algebraic thinking among students. The context of paper folding makes some of the abstract mathematical ideas involved relatively concrete. When implemented…
