Christiansen, Iben Maj; Corriveau, Claudia; Pettersson, Kerstin – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
Within the commognitive perspective, ritual and explorative routines are used in a very particular way to distinguish students' routines according to whether they are driven by social reward or by generating a substantiated narrative. Explorative routines in this theorisation may refer not to inquiry-based activity but to the result of a student's…

Alison Mirin; Dov Zazkis; Andre Rouhani – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
In order to learn more about student understanding of the structure of proofs, we generated a novel genre of tasks called "Proof Without Claim" (PWC). Our work can be viewed as an extension of Selden and Selden's (1995) construct of "proof framework"; while Selden and Selden discuss how the structure of a proof can be discerned…

Kwaku Adu-Gyamfi; Kayla Chandler; Anthony Thompson – School Science and Mathematics, 2025
The challenge posed by algebra story problems creates a significant hurdle for many students, transcending both the mathematical content of the problem and the specific instructional background received. This study offers a distinctive contribution to the existing literature by focusing on the cognitive conditions essential for comprehension in…

Nadya Syifa Utami; Sufyani Prabawanto; Didi Suryadi – Journal on Mathematics Education, 2024
The conception of functions, defined as the relationship between magnitudes or sets of ordered pairs, varies among students depending on the contextualization of the concept within the curriculum, notably in school textbooks. This investigation endeavors to scrutinize the approach taken by Indonesian textbooks in introducing the function concept…

Karina Nuñez-Gutierrez; Camilo Andrés Rodríguez-Nieto; Lisseth Correa-Sandoval; Vicenç Font Moll – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2025
The variational thinking of high school students based on mathematical connections was analyzed through a laboratory on linear functions. This qualitative research based on design was developed in three phases: diagnostic test, implementation of the mathematics laboratory and final test, with students from a public institution in Barranquilla,…

Chandler, Kayla; Adu-Gyamfi, Kwaku; Preston, Ron – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2023
In this article, the authors provide some insight into how teachers can potentially facilitate among students' representations and activities on mathematical tasks: between or among -- (1) student representations and the context; (2) multiple forms of student representations; and (3) processes in student representations. The authors use the…

Caitlyn Wilkerson – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This case study involves one public school in a suburb of a major metropolitan area, focusing on one classroom of first grade students selected from a pool of volunteer classrooms. The first grade class of students, during their regular mathematics instruction, were given three tasks by their teachers designed to elicit a productive struggle…

Raynetta K. Wiggins – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Through instructional tasks, teachers can present content in ways that require students to apply critical thinking, problem-solving, and other cognitive skills. The purpose of this mixed methods collective case study was to determine how teacher-assigned instructional tasks in mathematics impact students' learning of mathematical concepts. In this…

María del Mar López-Martín; María Burgos Navarro; Verónica Albanese – Statistics Education Research Journal, 2025
To ensure the learning of mathematics, teachers must be able to analyse their students' mathematical practices when solving tasks, interpret the difficulties that students encounter, and decide how to manage students' difficulties. This competence in didactic analysis and intervention allows teachers to adapt their teaching to meet individual…

Kaur, Berinderjeet; Tong, Cherng Luen; Jahangeer, Mohamed Jahabar – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2023
The primary school mathematics syllabuses in Singapore as of the year 2020 reinforces that Big ideas are central to the learning of mathematics. In support of the push to teach for big ideas, a research study is presently underway. A part of it is on the professional development (PD) of primary school mathematics teachers. As part of the PD…

Huiyan Ye; Oi-Lam Ng; Allen Leung – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
There has been a renewed interest in creativity as a twenty-first century skill in K-12 mathematics education. However, previous research has paid less attention to creative actions than to other learning outcomes, which are often product- instead of process-based, especially in a programming context. Thus, situated in the context of mathematical…

Cartwright, Katherin; Bobis, Janette; Way, Jennifer – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2021
In sharing solutions of mathematical tasks, students may use various modes of representation such as: language (oral/written), numerical and symbolic, or drawings (pictures, diagrams or markings). In this paper we explore the potential of student drawings to provide evidence of mathematical fluency. Examples of young students' (5-8 years old)…

Arnon Hershkovitz; Norbert Noster; Hans-Stefan Siller; Michal Tabach – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2024
Learning Analytics is concerned with the use of data collected in educational settings to support learning processes. We take a Learning Analytics approach to study the use of immediate feedback in digital classification tasks in mathematics. Feedback serves as an opportunity for learning, however its mere existence does not guarantee its use and…
