Pittalis, Marios; Pitta-Pantazi, Demetra; Christou, Constantinos – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 2020
A theoretical model describing young students' (Grades 1-3) functional-thinking modes was formulated and validated empirically (n = 345), hypothesizing that young students' functional-thinking modes consist of recursive patterning, covariational thinking, correspondence-particular, and correspondence-general factors. Data analysis suggested that…

Johansson, Stefan; Strietholt, Rolf – Comparative Education, 2019
With the aid of longitudinal country-level data from five IEA TIMSS assessments (1995--2011), the current study addresses the issue of the globalisation of curricula and achievement. To explore the hypothesis of global convergence, we study performance in four subdomains of mathematics. Using regression with fixed effects for countries, we…
