We report the results of a study on informal covariate statistical reasoning conducted with 22 students (aged 16 and 18 years). We designed and implemented a task in a digital technology environment to introduce the line of best fit. The task design having elements that foresee misconceptions reported in the literature, and by focusing on four…

Exploring Students' Understanding of the Limit of a Sequence through Digital and Physical Modalities
Voigt, Matthew – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2016
The purpose of this study was to investigate how a set of physical and digital instructional activities can serve as an example space to help further develop a concept image that is aligned with the formal concept definition for the limit of a sequence. In addition, the unique affordances and constraints allowed by using either a physical or…

Koklu, Oguz; Topcu, Abdullah – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2012
Pre-existing misconceptions are serious impediments to learning in mathematics. Means for detecting and correcting them have received much attention in the literature of educational research. Dynamic geometry software has been tried at different grade levels. This quasi-experimental study investigates the effect of Cabri-assisted instruction on…

Wilson, David C. – Mathematics Teacher, 2010
Graphing bivariate data in a scatter plot and drawing an approximate line of best fit for the data have become commonly recommended activities for middle school and high school students. The graphing calculator has provided a mechanism for students both to approximate a best-fit line and to calculate the best-fit line using a built-in option. Two…

Caldwell, Frank – 1997
The concept of function is central in mathematics and grows in importance as one progresses in depth and breadth of understanding mathematics. Results from national assessment progress reports indicate that the majority of students do not comprehend the concepts of function and graphing. Technology has the potential to improve the understanding of…
