The article investigates the patterns that arise in the convergence of numerical methods, particularly those in the errors involved in successive iterations, using data analysis and curve fitting methods. In particular, the results obtained are used to convey a deeper level of understanding of the concepts of linear, quadratic, and cubic…

To investigate student difficulties in solving word problems in algebra, we carried out a teaching experiment involving 51 Indonesian students (12/13 year-old) who used a digital mathematics environment. The findings were backed up by an interview study, in which eighteen students (13/14 year-old) were involved. The perspective of mathematization,…

A procedure is presented for the analysis of rating data with correlated intrajudge and uncorrelated interjudge measurement errors. Correlations between true scores on different rating dimensions, reliabilities for each judge on each dimension and correlations between intrajudge errors can be estimated given a minimum of three raters and two…
