Tim Erickson – Australian Mathematics Education Journal, 2023
At the school level statistics begins with exploratory data analysis, or EDA. Statistical learning goes on to include statistical inference, which will be discussed in the second part of this article. In this article, the author will talk about EDA and CODAP. EDA can be thought of as looking for patterns in data using graphs and simple statistics…

Anders Wiik; Pauline Vos – Adults Learning Mathematics, 2024
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic urged authorities to share quantitative information such as infection and death rates. One way of disseminating was through graphs, maps, and diagrams. Such data visualizations communicate numeric data in compact ways, but also require a particular mathematical literacy from readers. We conceptualized this particular…

Çekmez, Erdem – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
The topic of inequalities is one of the fundamental subject areas for the development of mathematical knowledge. Although there is a considerable body of research focused on one-variable inequalities, studies that investigate students' performance on two-variable inequalities are scarce. With this in mind, the aim of this study is twofold: first,…

Hoban, Richard A. – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2021
Many students do not have a deep understanding of slope. This paper defines what a deep understanding of slope is in terms of mathematics-education theory. The various factors which help explain why such a deep understanding is difficult to acquire are then discussed. These factors include the following: the different representations for slope;…

O'Sullivan, Kathy; O'Meara, Niamh; Goos, Merrilyn; Conway, Paul – Irish Educational Studies, 2021
Our everyday lives have been transformed in 2020. Key features of this transformation have been the significance of COVID-related numeracy in our everyday lives and the realisation of the story it might tell about lives, health and death. In recent years, governments and educators around the world have been advocating for numeracy as an essential…

Tobias Rolfes; Jürgen Roth; Wolfgang Schnotz – Journal for STEM Education Research, 2022
Using multiple external representations is advocated for learning in STEM education. This learning approach assumes that multiple external representations promote richer mental representations and a deeper understanding of the concept. In mathematics, the concept of function is a prototypical content area in which multiple representations are…

Rodríguez-Nieto, Camilo Andrés; Rodríguez-Vásquez, Flor Monserrat; García-García, Javier – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2021
The quality of the intra-mathematical connections made by Mexican university students when solving tasks on the derivative was characterized. The typology of mathematical connections and the quality levels of mathematical connections were used. Interviews were conducted based on eight tasks applied to three case studies. The results showed that…

Chinofunga, Musarurwa David; Chigeza, Philemon; Taylor, Subhashni – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science and Technology Education, 2022
This paper argues for effective sequencing of mathematics content to aid transition from junior (Year 7 to Year 10) to senior mathematics (Year 11 to Year 12) curriculum in Queensland, Australia and provides a tool for sequencing the mathematics content. Planning templates and samples are available to schools; however, it is imperative for…

da Fonseca, Vilmar Gomes; Henriques, Ana Cláudia Correia Batalha – International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 2020
The literature emphasizes the interest and need to learn the concept of continuity with understanding, although this meaning it is not consensual nor specified how it may emerge and be developed in the learning process. In this paper we report the results of a study aiming to analyse Brazilian preservice mathematics teachers' understanding of the…
