Valentina Albano; Donatella Firmani; Luigi Laura; Jerin George Mathew; Anna Lucia Paoletti; Irene Torrente – Journal of Learning Analytics, 2023
Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) are widely used in educational assessments and professional certification exams. Managing large repositories of MCQs, however, poses several challenges due to the high volume of questions and the need to maintain their quality and relevance over time. One of these challenges is the presence of questions that…

Garuti, Rossella; Dapueto, Carlo; Boero, Paolo – International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2003
The report describes a mathematical modelling activity of a natural phenomenon (transmission of hereditary characters in a codominance case) using the concept of model as a theoretical instrument. The chosen tool enables us to show how the construction of a link between reality and a model is related to the evolution of the graphical…

Robutti, Ornella – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2006
This report is part of a long-term research on the construction of mathematical meanings through the interaction with various technologies. The research involved a set of teaching experiments based on body motion with sensors and calculators at different school levels, from kindergarten to secondary school. Here I refer to the one developed in a…
