Visualizations and visual models are of substantial importance for science learning (Harrison and Treagust, 2000), and it seems impossible to study chemistry without visualizations. More specifically, the combination of visualizations with text is especially beneficial for learning when dual coding is fostered (Mayer, 2014). However, at the same…

To support university students' understanding of mathematical proofs, pictures accompanying text are frequently used in textbooks as well as in lectures. However, it is unclear if such pictures influence the individual's reading behaviour. By recording the eye movements of eight mathematicians, we investigated whether and how adults with high…

The universities and faculties which educate teachers of mathematics for teaching pupils/students of any age group from pre-school age to higher education carefully monitor and compare valuable results of this research, detect the areas in which the mathematical achievements of pupils should be improved at the national level and propose the ways…
