In this paper, we present the analysis of the students' achievements in learning calculus in a dynamic software environment during the COVID-19 crisis. Two groups of students, the experimental and the control one, were monitored. Blended learning was applied to the students in the experimental group, with the help of "Microsoft Teams"…

This study investigates the impact of GeoGebra, a dynamic, accessible, and easy-to-use mathematics software, on student confidence and perceptions of its helpfulness in the context of Calculus III courses. A quasi-experimental design was employed to compare four sections of Calculus III, with two sections integrating GeoGebra for in-class…

Background/purpose: This research is motivated by the difficulties often experienced by students in adapting to their first year of college, especially related to learning calculus. To address these difficulties, a solution needs to be found so that these problems can be resolved. One solution that is expected to yield optimal results in…

Background/purpose: The purpose of this study was to elicit faculty members' perspectives on effective instructional methods for teaching calculus in the UK and Saudi Universities. Materials/methods: An online questionnaire was administered to 150 UK faculty members and 156 Saudi faculty members specialising in curricula and methods of teaching…

This article presents an instructional technology-based cycle model intended to support and facilitate the teaching and learning of mathematics, particularly calculus. The study used quantitative methods with quasi-experimental research that uses non-randomised assignments of the study group that are categorised into experimental and control…

This study investigates the embodied, symbolic, and formal reasoning of two fourth-year university students while exploring geometric reasoning about the Cauchy-Riemann equations with the aid of "Geometer's Sketchpad (GSP)." These students participated in a teaching activity designed to encourage shifts between embodied, symbolic, and…

Background/purpose: This study aims to improve students' mathematical critical-numeracy thinking skills by applying the Problem-Based Learning-Autograph model. Materials/methods: This study used a mixed method with a sequential explanatory strategy, and the research design is a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population included students…

Multiple representations cultivate students' mathematical mindset. However, research results have reported that students do not benefit from these tools due to lack of representational fluency. This study was designed to determine the impact of GeoGebra assisted multiple representations approach on students' representation translation performance…

This project aims to investigate the Flipped Classroom Model Assisted Autograph can help engineering students improve their math skills. Many researchers have discussed how the Flipped Classroom Model has been proven successful for online learning usage, particularly during remote learning because of the COVID-19 pandemic's effects. However, the…

This paper provides some insights into the use of example-generating tasks in the design of a technology-rich learning environment to enhance students' mathematical thinking. The paper reports on an early stage of a design-based research project concerning the design of tasks and associated feedback utilising the affordances provided by a combined…

Learners in the 21st century need technological support in the learning process because of the advancements made in technology for teaching and learning. A GeoGebra-oriented classroom uses one of these technologies that can be implemented in the classroom. The new developed cycle model implemented in the study and explored the effect of using…

Several publishing companies now offer competing brands of online homework (OHW) software. Students rarely have a voice in choosing their required course materials, even though, ultimately, they will be asked to use and pay for these systems. In this study, Calculus I students each tested three different OHW systems. The students were then asked…

The objectives of these mixed methods were to (1) improve students' performance in calculus by using GeoGebra software and (2) investigate students' experiences with and perspectives on using GeoGebra software in calculus. The participants were 58 mathematics teacher students at a university in Thailand. The instruments in this study were a test;…

This article shows results on the simulation of partial differential equations such as the heat equation, the Laplace equation and the wave equation in a course called mathematical methods at a university in Bogotá Colombia. In this course, the concept of partial differential equations and different solution methods were explained to them, both in…

This study is based on an exploratory teaching experiment, integrating the use of GeoGebra, carried out with Brazilian pre-service mathematics teachers that were attending a Pre-Calculus course. We focus on the contributions of GeoGebra to the learning that the students evidence about the 'instantaneous rate of change', in this teaching experiment…
