Megan H. Wickstrom; Hyunyi Jung – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2024
A growing consensus holds that preservice K-8 teachers (PSTs) need to experience the modeling process as learners to understand it and envision teaching modeling in their future classrooms. We examine this recommendation by exploring how PSTs construct models and how collaborative learning practices influence them in revising and refining their…

Kularajan, Sindura Subanemy; Czocher, Jennifer A. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2021
In this paper we address the question, how do quantitative reasoning and covariational reasoning present as students build structural conceptions of real-world situations. We use data from an exploratory teaching experiment with an undergraduate STEM major to illustrate the explanatory roles quantitative reasoning and covariational reasoning play…
