Direct linkStepnowski, Waldemar – ProQuest LLC, 2022
The purpose of the study is to enumerate the representations in high school geometry, to narrow the focus to the most common ones, and to describe how the common representations are coordinated. To achieve this purpose, I analyzed several sections of a popular geometry textbook using thematic analysis, semiotics, and a pragmatic approach to…

Günzel, Martin; Suchopárová, Tereza; Binterová, Helena; Šulista, Marek – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2017
In this paper, the authors present results of their pilot research on nonverbal elements' perception. They pay attention to a not yet well established system of evaluation in mathematics textbooks from the perspective of nonverbal elements and sum up their findings from pilot researches on pupils' operations with nonverbal elements. Pilot surveys…

Description: Effective with the 2014/15 school year, Mississippi adopted new academic standards and courses aligned to these new standards. The new courses included both a subject-specific mathematics sequence (that is, algebra I, geometry, and algebra II) as well as an integrated mathematics sequence (that is, integrated I, integrated II, and…

Domina, Thurston; Hanselman, Paul; Hwang, NaYoung; McEachin, Andrew – Grantee Submission, 2016
Between 2003 and 2013, the proportion of California 8th graders enrolled in Algebra or a more advanced course nearly doubled to 65 percent. In this paper, we consider the organizational processes that accompanied this curricular intensification. Facing a complex set of accountability, institutional, technical/functional, and internal political…

Switzer, J. Matt – Australian Mathematics Teacher, 2013
Patterns are commonly used in middle years mathematics classrooms to teach students about functions and modelling with tables, graphs, and equations. Grade 6 students are expected to, "continue and create sequences involving whole numbers, fractions and decimals," and "describe the rule used to create the sequence." (Australian…

Kloosterman, Peter – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2010
Overall scale scores from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) indicate that there was only minimal improvement in the mathematics performance of high school students between 1978 and 2004. Using recently released data from the Long-Term Trend (LTT) NAEP, this study describes the content covered on the LTT NAEP and the…

Pullman, Howard W. – 1979
A selection of 14 tests of five cognitive factors was administered to 95 senior high school geometry students. These cognitive factors were then related to six measures of performance in mathematics and subjected to correlation analysis and stepwise regression. The findings indicated that the selected cognitive factors correlated with all measures…
