Zahra Pourazima; Vahid Borji; Hassan Alamolhodaei – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2025
The basic notions of combinatorics, including systematic listing and permutations, are important topics of mathematics that are recommended to be learned eventually from elementary schools. However, there is little research in mathematics education regarding elementary students' combinatorial strategies. The purpose of this research is to…

Passarella, Simone – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Introducing the distributivity property of multiplication over addition is a well-known challenge in mathematics education, especially in primary school. As a contribution, this paper presents the results of a cycle of design research that focuses on the design, implementation and evaluation of a modelling activity in which 2nd-grade students are…

Peled, Irit; Keisar, Einav – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2015
In this action research, first-graders were challenged to cope with a sequence of modelling tasks involving an analysis of given situations and choices of mathematical tools. In the course of the sequence, they underwent a change in the nature of their problem-solving processes and developed modelling competencies. Moreover, during the task…
