This study aims to investigate the effect of the Metacognitive Strategy-Based Geometry Education Program (McGEP) on children's metacognition and executive function skills and the permanence of this effect. The study was designed in a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest control group with a total of 27 children attending to…

Demir, Eda; Ilhan, Onur Alp; Sevgi, Sevim – Bulletin of Education and Research, 2023
The purpose of the study was to determine the association between van Hiele geometric thinking levels and circular achievement exam results for middle school students in 7th grade. The design of the study was a survey method. 157 middle school students were participated into study from three different schools in Kayseri in the spring semester of…

Direct linkThom, Jennifer S.; Hallenbeck, Taylor – American Annals of the Deaf, 2021
Spatial reasoning is critical across the STEM disciplines. Examining deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children's spatial reasoning in mathematics, particularly geometry, as an embodied phenomenon opens new possibilities for deaf education. The authors inquire into the embodied processes and forms of DHH learners' spatial reasoning, considering how…

Ilhan, Aziz; Tutak, Tayfun; Celik, Halil Coskun – Eurasian Journal of Educational Research, 2019
Purpose: In this study, it was aimed to examine the relationship between the visual mathematics literacy perceptions and its sub-dimension for geometry success levels of prospective teachers. It was also aimed to examine to what extent visual mathematics literacy perception and its sub-dimensions predicted geometry success. Research Methods: This…

Elsayed, Sabah Abdalla; Al-Najrani, Hamda Ibrahim – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
This research aimed to identify the effectiveness of augmented reality technology on improving visual thinking in mathematics and academic motivation among middle school learners in Saudi Arabia. To accomplish the research objectives, the experimental method with a quasi-experimental design was adopted and it included an experimental group and a…

Ilhan, Aziz – SAGE Open, 2021
The present study aimed to investigate the effects of geometry instruction activities conducted in nature based on modeling, game-based, and cooperative learning methods on achievement, mathematical motivation, and visual mathematical literacy perceptions of third-grade elementary school students. The present study is a quantitative study…

Patahuddin, Sitti; Logan, Tracy; Ramful, Ajay – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2018
This paper attempted to make explicit some of the underlying characteristics of spatial visualisation using the concept of area of composite shapes. By engaging students with metric-free tasks, we identify the type of perceptual and visual/spatial manoeuvres that they deploy in such situations. Interview data collected from three students in Grade…

Leavy, Aisling; Hourigan, Mairéad – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2015
The context of students as architects is used to examine the similarities and differences between prisms and pyramids. Leavy and Hourigan use the Van Hiele Model as a tool to support teachers to develop expectations for differentiating geometry in the classroom using practical examples.

Ferrara, Francesca; Mammana, Maria Flavia – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2014
In this paper, we present an approach to spatial geometry that involved a group of university students, who engaged in visual experiences while discussing about geometrical properties using a dynamic geometry environment. Drawing on aspects related to the difficulty of seeing in 3D, we introduce suitable connections between quadrilaterals and…

Kospentaris, George; Vosniadou, Stella; Kazic, Smaragda; Thanou, Emilian – Frontline Learning Research, 2016
We argue that there is an increasing reliance on analytic strategies compared to visuospatial strategies, which is related to geometry expertise and not on individual differences in cognitive style. A Visual/Analytic Strategy Test (VAST) was developed to investigate the use of visuo-spatial and analytic strategies in geometry in 30 mathematics…

Wiest, Lynda R.; Ayebo, Abraham; Dornoo, Michael D. – Australian Senior Mathematics Journal, 2010
Geometry is an area in which Australian students performed particularly poorly on the 2007 Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). One innovative area of recreational geometry that has rich potential to engage and challenge a wide variety of students is "impossible geometry." An impossible geometric object is a…

Gal, Hagar; Lin, Fou-Lai; Ying, Jia-Ming – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2009
This study uses classroom videotapes to examine the phenomenon of students who are left behind during whole-class teaching. Zooming in via these videos enabled us to analyze these classroom situations by means of a compact, multi-perspective set of theories--van Hiele theory, conceptualization, and visual perception. The analysis provided a…

Kyttala, Minna; Lehto, Juhani E. – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2008
Passive and active visuospatial working memory (VSWM) were investigated in relation to maths performance. The mental rotation task was employed as a measure of active VSWM whereas passive VSWM was investigated using a modified Corsi Blocks task and a matrix pattern task. The Raven Progressive Matrices Test measured fluid intelligence. A total of…
