Eeva S. H. Haataja; Anniina Koskinen-Salmia; Visajaani Salonen; Miika Toivanen; Markku S. Hannula – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
Teacher gestures support mathematics learning and promote student collaboration. Aligned with speech, gestures can help students to notice the important visual information of geometry tasks. However, students' visual attention to the teacher's gestural cues during collaborative problem solving remains a largely unexplored field in mathematics…

Heyd-Metzuyanim, Einat; Haataja, Eeva S. H.; Hannula, Markku S.; Garcia Moreno-Esteva, Enrique – Instructional Science: An International Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2023
We present the analysis of an episode of mathematical problem solving in a group, where data came from multiple advanced recorders, including multiple video cameras, Smartpen recorders, and mobile eye tracking glasses. Analysis focused on a particular group that was ineffective in their problem-solving process. Relying on the commognitive theory…

Yang, Der-Ching; Tseng, Yi-Kuan; Wang, Tzu-Ling – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
This study analyzed geometry problems in four middle-grade mathematics textbook series from Taiwan, Singapore, Finland, and the United States, while exploring the expectations for students' learning experiences with these problems. An analytical framework developed for mathematics textbook problem analysis had three dimensions: representation…

Tatsuoka, Kikumi K.; Corter, James E.; Tatsuoka, Curtis – American Educational Research Journal, 2004
This study used a diagnostic testing approach to compare the mathematics achievement of eighth-grade students across a sample of 20 countries, analyzing data from the Third International Math and Science Study-Revised (TIMSS-R, 1999). Using the rule-space method, student mastery was measured on 23 specific content knowledge and processing…
