Carolina Henríquez-Rivas; Andrea Vergara-Gómez – European Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
Although research highlights the importance of analyzing the geometric work of teachers, there are few validated instruments in this line. This study presents the processes of design and validation of a forced-choice questionnaire that allows the characterization, from a theoretical basis, of how geometry teachers organize their teaching practice.…

Julianna Washington; Candace Walkington; Taylor Darwin – Grantee Submission, 2024
In this chapter, we explore the use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) in geometry courses for teachers. There is increasing use of AR and VR technologies, such as AR and VR goggles, in K-12 schools, providing new opportunities for learners to interact with geometry in three-dimensional (3D) environments. These opportunities lead…

María J. Beltrán-Meneu; Rafael Ramírez-Uclés; Juan M. Ribera-Puchades; Angel Gutiérrez; Adela Jaime – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
We present a case study of proving by three 12-13-year-old students with different levels of mathematical giftedness. After analysing students' proofs, we conclude that: there was a relation on the consistency and the students' levels of mathematically giftedness, being the least consistent the student not mathematically gifted and the most…

Charity Cayton; Kayla Chandler – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2024
This article describes an instructional sequence used with inservice secondary mathematics teachers as part of a graduate course. The instructional sequence focused on designing tasks using Interactive Geometry Software (IGS). This study answers a call for replication studies to investigate the use of an established instructional sequence. Results…

Sevgi, Sevim; Orman, Feyzullah – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
In this paper, Harel and Sowder's proof schemes of taxonomy were applied for identifying eighth grade students' learning of proof and proofing. This study aimed to examine what kind of proof schemes are used in geometry and measurement learning areas and student's skills in giving proof and their opinions about proof. Qualitative methods were…

Ismail Özgür Zembat; Sümeyye Gürhan – Investigations in Mathematics Learning, 2023
This article provides an analysis of a data set coming from a two-phase qualitative study that focused on fostering primary students' abstraction of interrelations among quadrilaterals (squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombuses, trapezoids). The pilot study consisted of work with eight primary students operating at van Hiele level 2 (e.g.,…

Duong Huu Tong; Pham Sy Nam; Nguyen Thi Nga; Le Thai Bao Thien Trung; Tang Minh Dung; Bui Phuong Uyen; Nguyen Nguyen Chuong – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
Coordinate geometry is an important part of mathematics. It helps students develop thinking, logic, and problem-solving skills. This study was conducted to test the effectiveness of the CORE learning model in promoting students' mathematical problem-solving skills when they learn the method of coordinates in a plane. Consequently, this study used…

Hogue, Mark; Scarcelli, Dominic – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2022
Tangent lines are often first introduced to students in geometry during the study of circles. The topic may be repeatedly reintroduced to students in different contexts throughout their schooling, and often each reintroduction is accompanied by a new, nonequivalent definition of tangent lines. In calculus, tangent lines are again reintroduced to…
